Yep, it'd be Thursday in my neck of the wood, but that's when it will be available here as well. There an ATi hotfix driver for this game, and I believe nV has released a new driver that would show a marked improvement in FC2 as well.

I pre-ordered it through gamestop b/c of the extra 3 hours of gameplay with the limited edition.
However now that I bought a PS3 I am debating just renting it since I have the gamepass at blockbuster...really tempting to save the $50 and use my gamepass. What would you do lol?

I loved FarCry. Even when I was forced to play it on the lowest settings, I had a blast with it.
I think a lot of the joy with FarCry around here was also due to the fact that it was never really hyped and took so many people by surprise. The same year, Doom 3 and HL2 were getting more attention than all other games combined. It was so unexpectedly refreshing to have such a good game come out that wasn't hyped all over the place.

I almost got stuck there too when I was a noob
What I did was ignore them and use the jeep to jump over the lava river and drive down a road. There is a save point there and you get met by another enemy jeep. But after that it's only mercs to deal with.
Last time I played that game on Realistic, I killed everything, then jumped over the river so I know it's doable.

Me to but I lost a lot of faith in the Devs after trying out the Xbox version of far cry.. it was LAME. I didn't even finish the first level.
And I liked Far Cry better then Crysis to, all crysis had was better graphics so I think the Devs are going in the wrong direction and have basically lost it.
But I have to try Far Cry 2 and PC gamer gave it a 94% so I'm hoping for another classic like the first one. (Crysis was not a classic imo, I did like it though)
These Devs think the way to be innovative is to increase the stress on the GPU instead of making good game play.

"Watches You Sleep" Shark
The MP portion looks outstanding, but considering how I hate Gamepad controlled FPS Mp games, I'll be skipping this.
My monies will be going to Fallout 3 and Fable 2.
If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.
