Crysis demo in stasis until Oct 26

[pauldarkside]

The good news: Electronic Arts and Crytek are still releasing a demo of their forthcoming PC shooter Crysis. The bad news: The demo has been delayed to October 26, three weeks before the game goes on sale.

Still, it looks like the delay will allow me more time to explore World in Conflict

Game looks awesome though! And looking here http://www.crysis-online.com/Informa...0Requirements/ My PC stands a good chance of playing it well at high detail Well if it can handle Bioshock, it can handle anything

To be honest, whilst I was really looking forward to it, it's rare to get a demo out before a game these days, so no big deal. I've yet to complete Bioshock, and I'm in the middle of moving flat, so I'm not fussed!

October 26th will be a good day - Guitar Hero 3 & this demo (hopefully!)

i had to, lower my res and details to low to get decent fps... maybe it is cpu hungry more than graphics, who knows. but once i lowered it it was kill kill kill for me ;D, you'll love the energy regen thingy.

I heard that there are no Pc's that can run it on highest settings is it true, not even with 4 cards in SLI?

[j.o.s.h.1408]

well if thats true then 8800 series cards are all outdated and there realy is no point purchasing one now has the new high end nvidia cards will come out within the next 4-5 months

And where did that reliable information come from?

that is the plan...
for me anyway.

heres my todo list:

wait for phenom/barcelona
look at new am2 mobo reviews and cpu reviews
decide whether intel is still better than amd
wait for new nvidia cards where directx 10 has settled in proper

i think that means ill get aa 8900... but then it'll prolly cost heaps! they're releasing the 9800 in 2008 right? ill have to go look that up.

A friend was talking about it, just wondering if it was true
