    Nooo, your kidding arent you Tarinder!? No DX11 for crysis 2 until a while after? You've just made this the worst day this week .

    Oh well, guess being able to play games on a gtx 460m is a good achievement... shame ill never be able to afford an alienware haha.

    Oh well, I'll be delaying my purchase for a while too then.
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Thats highly dissapointing its going to be based on DX9 to start with - no wonder it runs fine on a bloomin laptop!!!

    Played the multiplayer demo last night and thoroughly enjoyed it though

    this reads as "initial release of Crysis 2 will be console port, real PC version out later if we can be bothered"

    the guy was even playing it using a control pad

    very sad days for PC gaming

    agreed andy - Theres even an option for the gamepad players for "Auto-Aim" - LOL!

    If this game seriously is based on DX9 - I don't think I'm gunna buy it - only been waiting like 2 years for it! Ah well, MAybe Battlefield 3 will be better as the PC is supposed to be the lead platform
