Probably not that great. The GPU leaves a lot to be desired. Try 0.9.6 or an SVN build with speed hacks. Don't plan on MGS2 or 3 running real well.

SVN = subversion

It's an in-between version of a program released between official versions. The newer SVNs have additional speedhacks that speed up games even more.

Not everyone just has 400$ to spend LoneWolf, instead they have a family to feed and/or bills to pay. Paying in installments is just asking for problems, save up money first, then spend it. Besides, in that period something new and better will have arrived anyway.
