I had the same crashing problem and indeed AVG is the issue.

I just puchased and installed the game of the year edition. Here is my report.

Please let me know if anything jumps out as being off.

I just solved the problem. If you are using AMD video cards, it could be that the game is trying to launch using Mantle. I found the solution on how to fix it here.
It is working great now.

Hi @Bittuldrago,
You have two cards : Intel(R) HD Graphics Family that is not meeting the minimum requirements and AMD Radeon HD 8670M.
Make sure to try this solution or that the game doesn't launch with the Intel card instead of the AMD one.

Right now, the defective Geforce driver, # 376.33 has shot to the top of the problem list. Get the Hot Fix driver, # 376.60, and choose the CLEAN Install option for it.

If you aren't allowing the AVG anti-virus to ruin your fun, the bad Geforce driver is certainly killing it!
