Need For Speed Shift not so speedy on Lenovo S12 ION

Tried playing Need For Speed Shift on my new Lenovo S12 ION, and found that it's not so good a gaming experience. Sure the game runs in full screen and everything renders, but the frame rate is terrible. I tried lower the resolution and lower the quality of the texture, but it didn't allow me to do full screen, and the frame rate still wasn't too smooth. So I think I'll pass. It's so much better playing the same game on PSP instead.

This is not a big blow for me. After all, I never intended to get S12 as a good machine. Older games like Portal works very well though.
