They can take their time.

First person to whine has to go and play lair on the PS3 and then tell me good things come to those who are impatient.

i personally think they could have released a buggy demo with half of intended, but say it's unfinished product, then release a real demo with the rest of intended level (or an update to the first demo) when the game is released

To release a demo isn't just a case of whacking a few levels in a zip file and just sticking it on the net. It takes time and effort. The same time and effort that is far better spent on making the full game work.

I'll be playing Halo 3, no time for crysis until the novelty of Halo has worn off.

But they're still releasing the game @ the same time. How does that help? I'm thinking it's because Halo 3's out same day...

this does suck, but everyone (including me) knows that this game must shine for PC gaming to regain its 1337ness. This game should be proof of what current top-of-line PC technology can offer, not only in terms of graphical prowess, but gameplay as well, so take all the time you need Crytek until that November release date.....I will need a reason to upgrade this Xmas.....

6. benchmark your new PC and extend your e-P***
7. do what consoles can't do: overclock your PC to your limit with a few simple slider bars

8. Thank Abit for making a board that doesn't suffer from the RROD.
9. Laugh @ how loud the 360 gets.
10. Smile at how quiet your pc is.
11. Play Halo: Combat Evolved Multiplayer and own n00bs w/ the pistol!!
12. Play UT2K4 instagib and get owned and called a n00b. (I really need to get going w/ this again.)
