As for Far Cry 2, got Crysis Warhead, its pretty good, I've played it a bit but it minds me of the original game quite alot just like Far Cry 2 would probably be alot like Instincts and 1 with better graphics, Crysis Warhead to me somehow seems like a repeat of the original storywise (and feelwise as well) for the little that I've played it. Haven't tried Crysis Wars yet though.

With so many good games already bought and several out this month, I don't know if I want to get Crysis. It's still too high priced around here and not the best FPS either. I am sure I would be able to run it all things max (apart from aa/af) at 1680x1050 (tv's max), but would I want to?

Played some GRiD and it's a beautiful game if nothing else. Currently I have to play GRiD, DiRT, PGR4, Forza2, Stuntman Ignition but GRiD looks the best so far in terms of looks.

Yeah, I plan on emailing them soon anyway for a couple of things related to my order so I might tell them that. They have prices for accessories but not for the main hardware. It doesn't make much sense to me, but, their decision.




Oh yeah, about the photos, I took them with my SE phone, but I left the cable back in Greece apparently. Not going to buy anothe cable, so trying to figure out a solution.

It took me a while since I couldn't find a way to download the photos from my mobile since I don't have the cable or an infra red port on my computers.
I tried bluetooth but I couldn't get the one in the netbook to work properly, although activated it said that it isn't working. I finaly found a button with the words "bluetooth radio" in greek, where radio is written as one would write about a fm radio tuner or something. I clicked on the image and it worked....anyway...here are the photos promised that I took 2 months ago when I received the system. Not the best of photos but I guess they will do.
Oh yeah, no problems with the system so far. Very satisfied with it.

Gastrian will become famous soon enough

Re: UK online shops

I'm a bit worried about the warranty considering its an online retailer. One year return to base but with them only paying the P&P in the first month. Singular parts would be okay as the cost would be relatively small bt to ship an entire PC would cost over £25.

Well, I understand you worrying about this. I have the PC for few months now and I have no complaints with the build quality or the parts used.
