    Looks like FPS geeks aren't leaving the house this weekend.

    Yeah, because that's how long it's gonna take to download it.

  2. Also a note to ATI video card owners... by antdude · · Score: 3, Informative

    Blue's News report:

    "ATI Cards and Battlefield 2 Demo -- In testing the demo, EA has encountered some visual issues on certain ATI cards with the previous Catalyst drivers (5.5) and are working with yesterday's 5.6 release to discover if the issue is resolved. If in playing the Battlefield 2 demo you encounter texture corruption of any kind, we recommend rolling back to the Catalyst 5.1 drivers. ATI is aware of this issue and is working to resolve it."
