This game looks and feels great! Sorry about not posting any screenies, but I am terribly inapt at getting good ones, and I am sure chris will provide much better ones than I ever could anyway.

This looks to be a must-buy game, although I must admit I doubt it will reach the total enjoyment that s.t.a.l.k.e.r did, but that is a gameplay thing of course. Lets just say ... the prerendered (?) scene at the beginning ... (airplane) was by far the worst looking thing that touched my monitor during that demo

Now ...to see what people have found out about unlocking other stuff in the demo (fondly remembers the old farcry demo and everything that you could find/unlock/enable in that).

The airplane cutscenes are actually real-time. I checked by turning on the FPS meter (r_displayinfo=1 in the console). You can also mess around with it in the sandbox editor.

I'm pretty happy with the performance on my system. I ran it at 1440x900 on all medium except with post-processing on high. 30-40 FPS average with maybe a few dips in big open areas (except for that ice part, dropped down to 5-10 there). I know my system is bottlenecking my 8800 some, but I'll just wait a good while and upgrade the whole thing someday instead of worrying about it.

By the way, is there a way to take screenshots, or do you need to use a program like FRAPS?

Chris, Are you still almost happy? Or are you now finally happy? Is there anything we can do to help you reach your happy goal?
