:laugh: I just know EA are cheap ass ********, and no way were they going to put Crysis 2 on sale yet.

And i was somewhat on with my first prediction, although I got the games 110% completely wrong, I did say "war" related. :p

So does this sale last through the weekend, or does it end today? If it lasts through the weekend, I would say the likelihood of battlefield BC 2 and Vietnam showing up is really good, so do not lose faith just yet everyone who is holding out for it.

As the image still has Saturday: ??? and Sunday: ??? it does seem to suggest there will be another two days of EA sales.

I say it's going to be Call of Duty series sale tomorrow. It's that or my 2nd choice which would be the Dead Space series.

Only Spore or Battlefield that I can see going on sale otherwise.

probably not cause call of duty isn't made by EA

Right now direct2drive.com is having a summer sale, with the code "sizzle" you can get 25% off any games. I'm not sure if this is for the US only though. It supposedly works for pre orders as well, because they have a lot of games that aren't out yet listed.

Some notables are:

Brink & Fallout New Vegas Bundle ($48 with code):

I think we'll no doubt see a Battlefield Sale coupled with latest Medal of Honor and a C&C sale.

Shame MOH was an absolute farce and C&C got old (for me at least) after Red Alert 2/Yuri's Revenge, they were the last ones I really enjoyed.

Playing Dead Space and the controls are a bitch, can't even remap to use the number pad or arrow keys and using the mouse on the menu just makes me cringe! Found some help to change the controls elsewhere but no game should be this broken out of the box. I won't bother with the sequel at this time.

On the plus side, graphics are nice...

Just as expected. Only thing that looks interesting and that I dont have already is battlefield 2. But then again i've heard horrible things about how Steam version works with win 7 x64.

I have zero problems almost 30 hours of gameplay. Just turn off in game steam.

This sale is awesome getting BC2, BC2 Vietnam and Medal of Honor.

    • take your console only release and shove it. i sold my ps5 as my pc wipes the floor with it, at the point of sale i didn't envisage being ignored by one of the biggest and wealthiest developers ever because they simply can't be bothered to support a loyal user base. as i only played the single player versions, i'll be obtaining this "free" when it eventually reaches PC as an afterthought to pay for their christmas party drinks in 2029. screw me, screw you cockstar
    • Apart from Early Hiccups on Windows 11 on first install on October 6th 2021 on my old Intel 10700 daily use Desktop PC at the time, used to have issue with Bluetooth suddenly no longer working and only fix back then was always another clean install--then would work for a while. Transition to 2024 when i decided to finally upgrade that system for better support for Battlefield 2042 and Battlefield 6 later on, opted for next daily use Gaming Desktop AMD Ryzen 7 7700X and Radeon 7800XT OC 16GB. No major problems at all with this desktop, OS was clean installed way back on 10/8/2025 not long after 25H2 released. Overall i've been happy with Windows 11 Pro from the start, even minor little quirks didn't sway me. Heck i even use Windows 8 and upgraded immediately upon release back then on my old HP P6-2133W Desktop, and while the specs of that machine didn't give me top notch performance--i still was able to do what i wanted to, without too many slowdowns. Windows ME i didn't use on any of my personal systems back in the day, kept those systems on 98SE til XP released, and grabbed that immediately on release date. Kept XP til Vista Released then upgraded immediately, kept Vista til Windows 7 released, then updated immediately again
    • Broadcom: dreadful company who is destroying VMware by pricing it out of the market.
    • To be fair, it wasn't going anywhere. Even when Windows Phone could run Android APKs, Google didn't want any of it so it'd never work and the same thing happened with Windows. It was never about the store or it's users, it was always the developers and who they aligned to.
