Fine I'll go pick it up and post some screenies. jeez.
I guess my Oblivion reserve will have to fill up later.
I'll let you guys know how it is since I know there are 0 reviews to go by and everyone wants to hear something about before they buy it.
Edit: Called EB and I can't pick it up till tomorrow  . So someone else feel free to tell us how it is. |

Strange, nobody has it yet. I am going to swing to EB today after work and maybe to walmart if they don't have it. I have seen nothing about this game anywhere (besides the review on IGN that I post in the news yesterday), what is wrong. its COD 2!

The site said it was released in stores 26th.
I'll pick it up today I guess, I have like 60 bucks in my wallet, 35 on Oblivion, and I'm returning Act of War used because it did not come with a CD key. Probably will only pay 5-10 bucks out of pocket.
6 cds? are you freaking joking me?
Man that 10bucks more for collectors edition looks mighty fine right about now : )

Lloyd Center EB Games, man. I just got off a two hour session that FLEW by.
DX9 is a pain. . .brings my rig to its knees. DX7 on teh other hand, 16x12 with eye candy on, smooth as butter. Nine just ain't worth it!
OK, time to go back in. . .
rasta
P.S. Went back to Quake IV. . .CoD is good, but it can't break the Strogg grip on me. . .

Switch to DX7 rendering and you'll get a massive framerate increase, and very little IQ loss, IMHO.

I picked up the game today at Best Buy(Long Island N.Y.) and also asked the manager if I could have the boxed t-shirt which she gave me plus the pre-order discount so I was very happy.The game has 6 discs plus a DVD which i still have to check out.Anyway the game-play is a little different with a grenade icon when one is thrown at you which is quite often.So far the graphics are top-notch and plays a bit better than F.E.A.R. or Quake 4 and the trend I`m seeing w/ all three games is upgrade your comp!I`m using a Sony Multiscan G500 21 inch so it looks great but I`m used to turning the eye candy all the way up and its a no go till my next upgrade.Anyway,you will love this game and the audio is excellent as in C.O.D. and C.O.D. United Offensive.Have Fun!!!  |

Game is greatm, and runs like butter on my system... but...
I have found numerous bugs running the game at max. The most irritating, it won't progress though the objectives, when I complete them, it will just act like nothing has happened and I will be stuck. It happened several times at several points. Anyone else?

it is pretty amazing, with the new beta drivers from nvidia 1920x1200 is perfectly playable on the 7800GTX, stunning graphics.
