I did. I'm about as far away from being able to play Crysis as one can get. I never pre-order games. :(

No, I am not going to pre order. PC games never get the hype that console games get so they will be everywhere.

I couldn't find Civ 3 or Civ 4 for a week and a half after their release.

I still haven't seen Transformers PC or Lost Planet PC anywhere.

Pre-Ordered. Can't wait! :D

I might have to put up with crappy vista though. I think it would be worth playing in DX10 mode!

The pre-order comes with an unlockable vehicle. Not a big deal, really, but at least extra. Kinda expected more though.

Yep, I think I will pre-order as soon as I can get hold of a card that will run it :)

Mine comes with that unlockable wheel and a "high def" (lol) poster :p but cost me a lil more bc of 2nd shipping (can't go with over-night or saturday shipping method. they're too much :laugh: )
My friend got his Transformer from torrents site and it's okay.. the graphic looks 7/10 in his X1950Pro.

You're like me, I'd play it on an separate HDD with Vista and the game itself, no more no less... well possibly add try out a couple more DX10 games though... :)
D44VE, do so asap while the offers last, and they're not going to collect the $ until the release date after they have 1 copy available ready to ship to you though.
