Naw, the 40 day trial is just saying you wont get any annoying message during that time. After that everytime you open up a .rar file it just gives u a message that your trial is over, all you have to do is X out of it and cont. to use winrar. crazymonkey092
yep, its just like mirc.

well i think ALL the reviews speakfor themselves !! 2nd , its not a fps

am playing it and its really good , i also liked another game called infernal

( check youtube or gametrailers.com , they're a better source to check the games rather than a written review)

if you want Fps you can get crysis , jericho ( its actually good , atmospheric) , timeshift ( butjericho and crysis are much better) , Hl2 ep 2 is really boring

and GoW will work good and smooth on your rig

Do you say the opposite of reviews on purpose? "Infernal and jericho are good, but hl2 ep2 sucks". Anyways, concerning GeoW, i heard it was quite buggy, and thats why there is not alot of people playing it online. I havent played it on 360 yet and was kind of looking forward to it, but ill wait until some patch fixes the problems.

....When people come over to hang out and you call in an air strike!

....When you get stuck in your car because your trying to hit the exit vehicle button.

....When it's 3'o clock in the morning and your tryin to think of a "you know you play to many games when" phrase...

hold on, i just noticed something. The "edit" message comes before the sig, usually. So, are you actually copy/pasting your specs everytime you post!?

8800GT, not 8600GT. And imo, 2 8800gts > 1 8800gt. I might be wrong.

Well, I couldn't last too long with the game.
Interaction of any kind with environment (incl. walking around)... clumsy and very much so. You never know when you get stuck, even if there's no objects anywhere in sight.
Controls could also be filed under clumsy, but that might just be me this time.
Graphics, forgivable, not bad not great.
But worst of all, abnormally long loading times become the leading cause for your declining sanity.
Couple other annoyances include User Interface and NPC interaction, but that might be a preference thing.

I think 5/10 isn't too far off.hate19
those are all technical issues. The best thing about rpgs are the story, lasting value (yes now it matters, they ALL used to be long, but its not the case anymore) and in this case, the gameplay is important too (innovative combat system). All the things you mentioned are exactly why it cant be a goty, but still a great game. Realise its not an fps, where you can interact with everything with no invisible walls and have realistic environment etc, because these games focus on the technical side of gaming, not the (imo the fundamental part) story and gameplay side.

If you wanna see funny reviews go to youtube and look for ''angry nerd''Impulsive20
imo, the funniest reviews are from yahtzee for the escapist magazine. Google zero punctuation and check out every review he has so far, all hilarious and true.

I just didn't know if anyone had any problems with downloadable games is all. I've never tried it before, I always buy at the store and was wondering if it is just as good is all. I have cable internet so it really depends on the speed of the direct2drive server I guess. Thanks for response, i guess I should have asked how long it might take with a cable connection. I'm not sure what speed it is but its pretty fast. A 1 gig demo usually takes about an hour so I would guess maybe about 3-4 hours max?welroon
i think you should order it or get it from the store. If you download from atari, you can only install twice, no matter what. I dont know about d2d (if the 2 install rule applies to it too) but i would definately buy a boxed copy.
