I don't know if anyone noticed but Crysis used to have a 9/11 release date posted on Gamespot. I just found that it's been changed to 11/13 so anyone worrying about bugs and AI not getting special treatment can breathe easier. It's not much of a surprise though as I expected an end of year release all along.
 
Nice to have COD4, UT3, Crysis, and GoW all coming out in the same month. I'm doubting Bioshock is gonna be able to keep me held over til then.

There probably wont even be such a thing. Also for it to have the name 8950gx2 it would likely be a revision of an 8900gx2 which would be a die shrunk variation of an 8800 to begin with. The 50 in 7950gx2 had NOTHING to do with it being a dual card. Remember it was just a revised 7900gx2.

May not be one of those either. :p

All the latest rumors suggest Nvidia is going straight to the 9 series. The 2900xt was not competitive enough for Nvidia to refresh the 8 series. So it looks the 9800gtx is what you will be waiting for. ;)

why would you use gamespot's release date and not a more official one?

I thought someone might ask that, but anyways if you can find one be my guest. Plus gamespot had full e3 coverage so a release date could have been communicated to them no? Even if it's not 100% correct I'm sure most of us were expecting a November release.
 
What the hell do gamespot know?

Stop posting erroneous release dates, until the developers/publishers announce it, this means nothing.
 
Whatever any site says, there still has been no official release date from Crytek yet.
 
Unfortunately, November seems correct.
EBGames had 11 September listed for a long time and today it changed to November whatever.
Kinda stinks. I was ready.:mad:
Well, Bioshock and HL2 Episode 2 are still very close on the horizon.:D
 
i was talking to one of the monkeys at Software Etc. at the mall the otherday and he said that COD4 have 10/31 release date and Crysis had a 11/5 or something right after that. ther were within a few days of eachother. thought that was a little odd

Let's just throw another completely unconfirmed date into the mix and all put on festive hats and celebrate. For all we know, Crytek could pull a Valve and delay it for another six months and nVidia could pull an ATI and drop a complete bomb of a next-gen video card.

Gamespot: Where's the game at currently in development? Will Crysis ship this year? Can you get any more specific than that?

Crytek: Yes, we will ship this year. In fact, we will announce the ship date very, very soon.

The article was posted July 26.
 
I'm in no rush and projected release dates change all the time. I'd rather wait in the hope the final product is as polished and bug-free as possible. I'll be upgrading to the 9800 GTX so it'd be great if the big time games are out at the same time as the card. BioShock will keep me occupied in the meantime. I like to take my time through a game and find all the hidden goodies, sub-plots, surprises, etc.

OMG Nvidia needs to make up its freaking mind!

I WANT A 9900 GX2! NOT GTX I WANT 2 DX10 GPUS IN ONE FREAKING SMOKING FAST CARD! AND THEN IF I MAKE ENOUGH MONEY (im 16 btw) BUY ANOTHER ONE FOR QUAD SLI!! AND THEN ILL BE GETTING 250FPS IN CRYSIS!
 
Remember that SLi typically doesn't improve frame rates so much as provide better performance at dramatically higher resolutions. So a hypothetical quad 9900 setup would be more appropriate for playing on hyper large size/resolution displays than it will for full detail high frame rate performance.

Here's hoping second generation DX10 hardware is especially awesome; though, I can imagine a great many more things to spend such an exorbitant sum of money on than four high end GPUs for a single computer. Like, maybe four mid range computers for Crysis LAN gaming. :)

thats what u would spend ur money on but im selfish and im following in sonys footsteps i wanna be "Future Proofed" so i wont have to upgrade my computer for maybe 3-4 years?
 
10 days before my 25th birthday. Happy birthday to me. :D
Maybe I will get a 2nd 8800 GTX for my birthday.
 
Wow two days before my 32'nd birthday :)

This should be a very interesting time in computing that we have not see in quite a while. By this date in November we should see:

SP1 for Vista
G92 From Nvidia
*Possible refresh of the ATi R600
AMD RD790 Mobo
AMD Barcy and Phenom Processors
Intel Penryn Processors
Better overall Vista drivers
Low cost upgrades of previous generation hardware.

All in all this looks to be a very good Holiday season for this particular hobby :)
 
A little further away than I wanted, but having a set date now is nice.

Woot!

Man if you get this excited over a video card, wait 'till you get yourself a girfriend! :p
 
crap, i got all excited a few days yesterday when a local shop listed september 13th as the launch date :(

this combined with the fact that we europeans wont get metroid untill two months after the us release = teh ultimate suck, i might just be tempted to buy ET:QW then (eventhough i kind of stepped out of the whole online team shooter bit)
