Well that's fine, I stop most games before the endings anyway.

When can I expect The Cave to go on sale? I want it but financials are pretty tight at the moment so if I can get it cheaper I would be thrilled.

Steam's blocked at work, I'm assuming Dirt games? All the Codemasters racing games seem to take a long time to drop in price on Steam. I bought Dirt 2 on Amazon years ago because it was $12 vs $40 on Steam. I remember F1 2011 was still $50 when F1 2012 came out. Not sure why they take so long to lower the price on those but then again, I'm not sure how much they really add to justify yet another game for the same price?

Regardless, they do a great job at making racing games that fit right in the middle of the arcade/sim range.

Will be interesting to see how my computer runs it if nothing else. DX11 only.

new Nvidia beta drivers out today. highly recommended for the Crysis 3 open multiplayer beta.

Quote:
This is the recommended GeForce driver for the Crysis 3 Multiplayer Open Beta. It delivers a smoother gaming experience, and boosts SLI performance by up to 65%.

EA’s recommended GeForce GPU for Crysis 3 is a GeForce GTX 560 or higher. For the Hi-Performance PC Specification, EA recommends GeForce GTX 680. See the full Crysis 3 system requirements on GeForce.com.

GeForce R313 drivers also provide significant performance increases in other top games like Assassin’s Creed III, Call of Duty: Black Ops II, and Far Cry 3.

I loved DiRT2 but DiRT3 is definitely missing some of the magic that D2 had.

Just didn't feel the same to me.

Lol wow, it seems like BF3 runs faster on the 680 with every patch. It must be running about 200% faster than it did day 1

Gotta watch those patch notes, sometimes they continue to list old improvements from previous drivers.
