I also find it funny how everyone went bats**t crazy about how good the graphics were in the video but now that it has been revealed that it is using DX9 it's suddenly a big problem? What, do you have virtual beer goggles that have now been removed by reading that spot of info?
the graphics were pretty good but everyone including myself was looking for a game that could finally actually use their DX11 graphics card to their full potential

personally, the commotion is about how crytek said they still care about the PC gamer. That Crysis 2 would not be a port to the PC and what is the first official experience we get with Crysis 2? an extremely lazy port over from the xbox! thats personally what im most angry about.

they are now truely showing how they feel about the PC gaming community and it is not very good. The very same community who helped them to grow into the company they are today and Crytek basically spits on us.

i dont have much hope for the DX11 in the future because how many games who have implemented DX11 as an afterthought have shown really any visual improvement? its like filming in 3d, film in 3d from the get go and dont add it as an afterthought.

i really cant wait for this generation of consoles to die so hopefully developers and pc gamers will be on the same playing field for at least a little bit.

i personally blame a lot of this on Microsoft. they release a new DX set with all these great features and abilities when they very well know that their console is stuck in DX9 and almost every game company is only catering to the console at this point. release a new DX only when you release a new console. that way people will get less angry about having a video card with all these features that we cant use!

sorry for the rant, the way game publishers and developers have been treating the PC gaming community has really gotten on my nerves recently
