Wish I could join y'all - but CPU 2 slow - or really graphics card. Can't upgrade **** b/c it is HP's all-in-one touchsmart 600. Assassin's creed 2 nearly killed it- couldn't play that so I doubt it'll do this. Have fun blowing **** up!

******* goddamn it! I just waited all of this ******* time to download the huge game using the shitty GameStop interface, and once it finished and was verifying it, the shitty program froze for a few minutes. When it became operational again, it shows the game as not having been downloaded. So I have to ******* wait for another hour and a half, maybe two hours. Should have just gone and bought it, but I thought "this will be more convenient". ******* idiot!

Should have ******* known better than to buy another goddamn EA product. Nothing but goddamn hassle right from the get go. After downloading it a second time, I am now trying to install it, but i have to do it through EA/Origin. Origin kept getting me to update their software, even though I had already just updated and installed it. Had to uninstall and reinstall and restart to make it finally get me to the log in screen to create an account. Now it's telling me my ******* email is associated with an account... OK. I try to change passwords, I get a validation code email and use it, type in a new password and hit next. It ******* tells me my email address is not a valid account. You just ******* told me it was goddamn it! I have never had a ******* EA product that worked worth a flying ****. I will never give EA another ******* cent of my goddamn money after I get this thing working. ****!!!

Oh, well ****. Now it works randomly after 15 attempts. Now I get to install yet more bullshit software. Let me just play the game already, pretty ******* please! What happened to the day when you just ******* install and play. Have to have an installer for the installer, then an anti cheat software, then a software to combine accounts with other games and platforms, then some more software for communications...
I could smash babies with a mallet like Gallagher smashed watermelons.

Is this ******* real life. WHAT THE ****!? Now playing the game, every so often I get a "no cd detected, insert CD" prompt from windows popping up. that's OK though, because I can't ******* play it anyway, because of the opening scene when you crash through the train window and grab the gun, my ******* left mouse button won't respond so I just get killed over and over. Again I say it, **** EA. How the **** they still exist as a company is beyond me. It's certainly not for their product quality. How the **** do you make a goddamn game where the objective is to shoot **** ,and the ******* shoot **** button doesn't ******* work!? I am not alone on this, it's apparently a big problem with the game. I mean goddamn, do they even test their ****? The last 2 EA products I bought recently, which was NCAA 11 and 12, neither of them work well on PS3. They freeze constantly and lock my PS3 and I have to do a hard reset.

The whole ******* thing sucks. ******* EA. My rage right now... and I could have been sleeping, instead I stayed up for this frustration. Oh well, maybe they will release a ******* patch soon so the goddamn "fire" button works and I can actually play the game.

Anyone running this **** on an older cpu?
I've got an E8400 dual core overclocked to 4ghz or so. I figured I can score a Radeon 6950 for like $180 used, and that should give me enough oomph to run at 1680x1050 at decent settings. PSU is a 750W which should be sufficient
confirm/deny? Also heard you can unlock 6950s to 6970, which would be bauce. Like the ye old days of Radeon 9500 unlocking to 9700.

I tried unlocking my new 6950s and did a bit of research after I bought them. You'll have the best luck trying to unlock a reference version. Pretty much any new 6950 you buy will not be unlockable. Mine weren't.
