Interested in price and benchmarks.  I was wondering how long it would take before our 6800gt\'s would start to show signs of age. :p

Another nail in Xbox\'s coffin

Those benchmarks look alright.  Too bad there are no new PC games worth $50 now.

after playing the demo I have to agree...

I like WWII games but never got into this one, even after the demo.  I think I need a buddy to play with to cause some MMO chaos.  What times do you guys get on?

I usually play between 10pm - 12am sometimes earlier or later.  I\'m buying the game after work today, so I might be on longer than usual.

My S/N is InsaneDonkey, i\'m not sure what server i\'ll be one, but it would be cool to play with some of you guys :)
