Bought and pre-loading.  :happy0203:

I guess that Killzone 3 will have to wait a little while longer.

Try deleting the local content for the Demo using the options in steam while browsing your game listing, I can't remember exactly where cause I'm in work...

Game looks pretty sweet btw!!   :banana:  not sure about picking it up as funds are well..............lacking

My pc demo was not working yesterday, it kept crashing to the desktop. I never had it crash before but whatever. I ended up removing it. I hope i don't get any problems with the retail version. If not, i'll probably have to do a full reformat, it's been almost two years since i last cleaned up my system. :/

Installed (WHILST pwning in BOPS on xbl mind you!) and played it for a round after I came of Xbox... it's well... FREE, you pay for what you get and well its entertaining I suppose but feels VERY dated. But again see point about FREE! mines didn't crash at all.

Ars review


Excerpt:
Quote
We don't get to die

The game has some surprises for you, including how you become the caretaker of the nano-suit, and what that means in the long haul. I've never seen a game take so much joy in putting its hero through so much crap. You get thrown, slammed, broken, and used by everyone you meet. I kept waiting for the protagonist to tell one of the other characters to go to hell when asked to fight. No one seems to give a damn about you as an individual, they simply pick you up, dust you off, and then throw you into the next bloodbath. Imagine being Master Chief, without downtime or any chance to get used to your armor.

Pay attention to what happens to the main character throughout the game. In many ways this isn't his fight, and as you play, you're placed in terrible circumstances by powerful men, and you have very little say in any of it. You're the perfect soldier, packaged in technology, with no voice or agency. Violence is the only means of expressing yourself. "We don't get to die," someone tells you in the course of the game, and it sounds almost mournful. The final words of the game may seem like a non-sequitur at first—and they certainly set up the inevitable sequel—but once you place them within the context of the rest of the story it's almost nihilistic.

While Crysis 2 may seem like just another big-budget shooter at first, the game plays with a number of images and themes that are surprisingly affecting. It's a haunting game, filled with the dead and the dying, and placing the action in such a much-loved American city only to destroy it in scene after scene is a bold choice. After I finished the single-player campaign I continued to think about how the game played out, and that's rare in a genre that seems to be stuck on the "isn't America tops, what with all our guns?" message.

Through the course of the game you're broken, shot, cut, and attacked from all angles. Allegiances change like the weather. What stays constant is that no matter what horrible things happen to you, you'll keep fighting as long you're able. During one scene you have to hit a button to trigger the suit's defibrillator, putting you back into harm's way. I was tempted to simply not hit the button, and allow myself to die on the battlefield. The only thing I wanted for myself was peace.

Verdict: Buy

I am feeling the NEED to get this... only problem is... with what funds O_o...

You really can't blame EA for something like that, its just business for them. Besides, who needs a million and one graphic settings. My good ole Quad Q6600 processor and GTX285 ran the demo @ 1680x1050, max details, 8X AA, 8X AF and i never saw less than 43fps. The details were great so i have no reason to complain.

I think after the epic threads we've had on the topic, we all knew this was coming.

Console port iwmc.

Shiv, I like the simplified graphics options but there is absolutely no reason not to include an "Advanced" tab....(other than to stick it to the PC population of course)

Turn the other cheek.....and it ain't the one on your face I'm talking about. lol

Still...the game was good enough in MP to earn a buy from me and as arc has said, the single player is their strong point.

gonna spring for it month end

Wow...the game is taking a beating, critically.  Just take a gander at the Steam forums, and
the official MyCrysis forums and you'll understand what I mean.

Found this gem on that very forum...  :laughing7:




Sadly, I'm not surprised at the outcome.  Those of us who pirated Crysis, and Crysis: Warhead
are truly reaping what was sown then.  I make no bones about saying that.

So here we are again...console port iwmc.  :shakehead:
