: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.

    • Just the price of doing business. The scamble to pull as much from the web as possible is happening, and it's happening before a case like this changes how or what is legal do to with AI in terms of data harvesting. But even then as we've seen with the likes of Google who ignore cookie requests and just accept the fact they'll get fined, it's built into their business price model now. AI is here, its not going away. Their reward if any from the court case would be best suited to trying to incorprate AI or licence their end points as authentic human verified content. The problem is, as we've seen these same news papers are using AI themselves.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
