Looking forward to this, but will hold off buying it for a while until the modders have had a chance to get inside the games' guts. ;)

I'm not sure Paddy has that type of willpower...

Let's hope Paddy's not disappointed. ;)

(Although from experience, when I wait ages for a game, it's never that great. When I stumble across it by accident, then it is awesome...)

I'm not sure Paddy has that type of willpower...:lol: ... Ha ... he-he ... not when it comes to games or computer stuff ... :lol:
I did some of the modding of STALKER myself ... :P ... so I may just have to get back into it.

EDIT ... OT but talking about my willpower ... how long after release do you think it will be before I have one of these ... :lol: ... http://www.danamics.com/danamics-lm10.aspx

We discussed this in another thread (I say 'we' I mean 'others of the WSGF') and mostly came to the conclusion that if it's good it'll approximately equal a good single 120mm-radiator watercooling setup, and if it's pants, it'll be as bad if not worse than many of the expensive-but-useless aircoolers. Honestly, I don't think it'll make much of a dent because it's expensive, but the laws of physics mean that while it'll get the heat off the CPU fast, it won't be able to dissipate that heat fast enough to be really effective (120mm fan on Thermalright Ultra Extreme 120-size heatsink...)

Of course, I'd be happy if they prove me wrong, but chances are they'll simply prove me right.

I played, maybe 2 hours...didn't care for it...my 6800 at the time wasn't up for it...maybe now...but honestly I didn't think it was much of a fps. More of an MMO than FPS style IMHO

Mine arrived today ... :D ...
However it needs some modding for TH ... so I'm going to leave it a while for some mod tools to become available.
Hopefully by then there will also be some mods/info to help any poor gameplay issues.

I do have the willpower to wait if it gets the game better ... :mrgreen:
