Damn it... it means that I will need to upgrade my system again... as I got so used to playing at 2560x1600... I need the next gen of video cards (in quad SLI) to play the cry2 engine.

I would have loved FarCry but it got too creepy. FarCry 2 is on my short list of must-haves for 2008-2009.

Far Cry 2 and Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway are my top 2 games I am looking forward to.

Might need an upgrade though :)

It doesnt use CryEngine2. It uses Dunia (proprietry engine developed by Ubisoft)

But it does look very good. A definite must buy when it comes out

I'm hoping this isin't another crysis..

Of course they changed some elements, but it seems to be all graphics again.

Well if it is like Crysis then I hope it's a lot longer. I seem to be one of the few on HWA who enjoyed Crysis' graphics and gameplay and I will buy the expansion pack Crysis: Warhead as soon as it's available here. Until then I was planning to play Battlefield Heroes but the release date has been pushed back by Dice (Who would've thought) so I did a favor to myself today and bought Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Platinum Edition for $32.99 and it brings Dawn of War , Winter Assault and Dark Crusade so I hopw that will keep me busy until the big titles are available.
