That would be quite a difference. You’re right: they’re 116 quid. Hmm…

You’d be able to play it at a higher resolution on high settings!

OK, I’m a bit of a graphics card spaz: would that make a proper, massive difference?

Considering the 8800GT is a smidge over £100 now Pat, perhaps it’s time for an upgrade?!

I’ve got dual AMD 64 4800s with an 8500 and it played it at crap resolution with a shocking framerate.

Brilliant.

Quick cash, I reckon. It’ll sell a million, betcha, and all the assets are already made. It’s even set on the same island.

Oooooh.. Another Crysis game, and PC only as well? So much for Crytek saying they were not doing anymore PC exclusives anymore. I wonder what made them changed their minds?

Ah, gotcha. Well, there’s lovely then. Nice to put out more very quickly like this. Another guaranteed million sales, basically.

Psycho is indeed the British squaddie who says “bollocks” quite a bit.

Doing a parallel story is a nice way of getting around the problem of having all the Koreans up and leave before the end of the first game. Good call. If it lives up to the first two third of the original game, this will be a definite buy for me.

Hopefully the “new, enhanced and optimized version of Crytek’s CryENGINE® 2 technology” isn’t going to be any more demanding in terms of system specs…

Is he the British one?

So I was right about who the picture was!

Psycho had the most personality out of all the characters in the game anyway and I’m not saying that just because we have a similar vocabulary. It also means it’s more NK killing goodness, hurrah!
