3 out of 5 stars No COD4   August 11, 2008
JOHN
The Product does not include COD4. Me like the others are very disappointed and felt as if amazon had let us down without providing us the correct information. I don't see why amazon don't give us some kind of credit or something based on the wrong info. Other than that the card worked great 5 star on product 4 star on amazon part.


4 out of 5 stars Mixed opinion   August 8, 2008
Nick
The card is definitely faster than my previous 8600GT, but I have to agree with the falsely advertised Call of Duty 4 game. I had suspicions when I ordered it since I didn't see the cover art in the pic as with some of the other cards.. and sure enough - no game. I asked about it w/ Amazon and was sent the same card, wasting everyone's time. I'll still give it 4 stars since it's not the card's fault Amazon didn't list it correctly.

It looks like they wised up and removed that blurb about the free game. I must admit that the free game was a selling point for me at the time, but oh well!



3 out of 5 stars Wher's the call of duty?   July 26, 2008
Ram Miranda Cajiga
Thsi video card is very huge, i had to move my HD to another place so the video card could fit on. Very good card, twice faster compared to the 8600gt and wheres my call of duty 4 free game??? this should be removed.
