Trying to get Crysis 1 redeemed through Origin with no luck. I tried Origin customer service, 4 times, and they are the most unhelpful and uninformed people I've ever talked to. *sigh*

Totally the opposite experience for me.
I got Crysis 1 registered. The guy was really really helpful and nice.
 
Balls. Doesn't look like there's an option to not use up your gift card balance when buying downloadable stuff.

Double check to see if there is option to change payment type and switch it from your gift card balance to credit card. If not, preorder something then cancel after placing your order.

Did you try the e-mail/Live Chat or the phone? Like I said in my post, I spent 45 minutes on the phone and they couldn't figure it out, and it took the guys through e-mail about 5 minutes to get it activated on my account.
 
I have 3 promotional codes ($15) that I won't use. I'm willing to trade them for Bastion or Terraria. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Live chat.

I gave it a try last night and got the most helpful and courteous person to resolve the issue. He even gave me a 15% off coupon for my next origin purchase. It was like bizarro world of Origin Live Chat. lol
 
^ If you're using motionjoy, using the dualshock 3 profile might invert your joysticks. I found using the x360 profile works best. If you want to switch l1/l2, just go to options and manually switch them.
 
Nice, so use motionjoy drivers and X360 profile for a USB connected Dualshock 3? Maybe ill see if I can find a used sixaxis or ds3 on ebay for a few bucks.
 
Burnout is fun as hell, but i got tired of hearing Guns N Roses after a while, lol. anyone have an extra 5 dollar code so i can try and get Need for Speed?
 
Should I get Burnout?

$5 VS i7+ AMD 6770M
It should run pretty much perfectly.
For what is worth, it runs quite nicely @720p and med-high settings in my 4 year old laptop (C2D T7250 + 8600M GT).
 
The only problem with Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box is that you CAN'T buy anything from the Store, I wanted the Legendary Cars Pack but I can't buy them! :(
 
Is darkspore any good people who have it?

Does it have good controller support? I downloaded the demo on steam a long time ago but I don't remember much about it. If it support controller I could grab it while I wait on Torchlight 2.
 
Crap, no controller support. I fold, looks interesting but I don't do mouse/keyboard gaming on PC. This don't seem worth the trouble being forced to use them.

The 6770m is near the bottom of the high-range category, and in the second link at the bottom of the page are what FPSs people got with various games at different settings.


Thanks. This is really helpful :)

I guess the the card isn't that bad.

I can't run The Witcher 2. DAMMIT! Why the heck did I buy it? D:

If you notice the closest approximation for that is the 6450 which is ranked in the 200s and the 540m which is around 100. This just means not a lot of cards were tested. According to the minimum system requirements you should be able to run it. The recommended ATI card is the 4850 which as I understand is a little bit better than what you have.

I really have to check what is the desktop equivalent of my card. I am new to PC gaming (well, laptop gaming :P)
