He's spammed that in every forum, multiple times in OT, and still won't post pics.

Therefore, we must ...

Oh, it might still very well be early. Gamestop is apparently selling a day early - but no one who "has it now" has posted box pics.

when people read this they should understand that high also claimed ~70fps at 1600x1200 with everything cranked in far cry.

Yeah, I intimidated them with my Rollo ways.....LOL

Gururu- go to the East Side Best Buy, they had a big display by the cash register with about 50 copies on it. There was one left on the shelf, the one closest to the XBoxes.

I was pretty happy to see it. Just finished installing it, thought I'd better check if anyone needs clarification.

Enjoy.

BTW- I was pretty surprised at how low key it was. I remember having to leave work for a while to get UT2003 the day it came out. I suppose no one expects it to be there yet.

 

[gururu]

I got it!!! I got it!!!!
thanks Rollo!!! teh D3 is here!!!

You're welcome, happy to help Gururu. I'm playing it 11X8 High Q, Quincunx, 8xAF.

This is one cool game!

 

[GeneralGrievous]

Circuit city has it for $44.99. I'll wait for it.

How are you getting that price? Why does their website say $55?

Meh. It was worth 10 piddly dollars to play it today instead of tomorrow or whenever it goes on sale. Also, getting it might be harder when John Q. Doofus knows it's in the store?

[jpvrabec77]

I'm from Madison too. any copies left at that store?

So any first impressions?
How much space does it take on HDD and what drivers are you using 61.77?
