Of course you want to know — When do I get it?

We strive at all times to get it to you sooner but here are some indications:

If we say In Stock, we dispatch same day (if ordered before 14:00 on a working day) and depending on where you stay it will be with you the next working day (Main Centres) or the next working day after that (Regional Areas). If you are in a remote area it may take an additional working day (a day longer than Regional).

If we say In Stock (You can also collect in cpt), the stock is available from our Cape Town warehouse and you can collect on the same working day if your payment has been authorised and you collect before 5pm.

If we say dispatched between X and Y days then it takes X to Y days to receive from a supplier and it will then be with you within a working day after dispatched (Main Centres) or the working day after that (Regional Areas). If you are in a remote area it may take an additional working day (a day longer than Regional Areas).

Imports are a best effort service, we strive to get it to you as soon as possible within the guidelines above but it's not always within our complete control so if something goes wrong we will let you know.

And then there's a Friday, sigh... Try order early on a Friday, we can then try our best to get it to you on the same day (Main centres), otherwise we will have to get it to you during the next week.

If this is all too confusing, call us on 0861 222 989 or send an e-mail to info@takealot.com. One of our friendly employees will get back to you pronto.

Description

In Crysis Warhead, players will don the Nanosuit of Sergeant Sykes, also known as ‘Psycho’, one of the most memorable characters from Crysis. More brash and aggressive than his Delta Force squadmate Nomad, players will experience Psycho’s parallel story during the events of the original game, finding that life on the other side of the island is even more intense and explosive than they ever could have imagined. Luckily, Psycho’s Nanosuit is just as capable and he’s equipped with an even bigger arsenal of fully customizable weapons and new vehicles, giving players access to the tools they need to dominate any situation. Aside from this new, exciting single player campaign, Crysis Warhead will also feature new multiplayer content.

Features:

  • Pulse-racing new installment from 2007's PC Game of the Year*: Play as Sergeant Sykes and experience a whole new side of the battle. A standard combat mission behind enemy lines becomes critical when you discover your enemies have captured something of vital importance to the ensuing war. It’s down to you to retrieve the cargo, at any cost.
  • More explosive and dynamic minute to minute game play: new customizable weapons, new vehicles, new photorealistic locations to explore, and a fully interactive war zone to dominate.
  • Enhanced human and alien AI: Intelligent enemies, bigger challenges, and all-new ally squad support.
  • Includes Crysis Wars®, an expanded new multiplayer experience with new online modes and 21 maps including seven all-new maps to battle it out against other players.

Notes
  1. Take on the fight as the volatile Sergeant "Psycho" Sykes in a new parallel story taking place during the events of Crysis. Psycho's secret mission will take him to the other side of the island on a ruthless pursuit of a North Korean general hell-bent on obtaining powerful technology. With the versatile powers of his Nanosuit and an arsenal of fully customizable weapons & vehicles at his disposal, Sykes will do whatever it takes to carry out his top-secret objective. Action on the other side of the island is more intense, the battles are fierce, and the mission protocol is no longer "Adapt to Survive". As Sergeant Sykes, now you must adapt to dominate the battle. Twin SMG's blazing, seizing new vehicles, or going stealth, the action and the victory is on your terms.

Pieter, SANDOWN. 20 November 2008

I made some time the weekend to finish Crysis: Warhead. Man, what a game!!

Quick 'n Dirty review

In the second Crysis instalment, instead of playing as Nomad, you play as Psycho. I don't remember too much about Nomad except for him being the "newbie" in the first Crysis. Psycho however, is much more in your face and is the typical bad ass.

Warhead is a parallel story line with both games tying in at the end video sequence of Warhead.

The bad guy this time is General Lee, a Korean punk you just want to get at with your nano suit. Somehow the Koreans always seem just one step ahead and you're always playing catch up!

There are several new weapons, the most impressive being the experimental plasma weapons towards the end of the game. Aliens are no longer a problem! I found that my favourite combo however, was the FY 71 or Scar with the Grenade Launcher mod. Otherwise it was Gauss Rifle all the way.

Tanks are back but this time with an insane new missile. Very impressive, like a white arrow flash on the ground when you fire. There is also a mission where you get to drive a hovercraft. A bit frustrating as I kept losing my way! This is when you've giving chase to General Lee when he steals the shipping container.

The game feels a lot more refined this time (is this possible?) but unfortunately I had an insane amount of lock ups. Still no patch so there is hope.

So if you want more of Crysis with the same magic mix of Koreans and Aliens, you won't be dissapointed.

Rating: 9.5 / 10

It loses out on full marks because of the lock ups I had with a 9800GX2 graphics card.

Alfred, Stellenbosch. 16 October 2008

Story line were supposed to be parallel to Crysis 1. Bit confusing to follow the story.
Graphics not as good as Crysis 1. Short, short, short, short, short game. Not worth spending the money
for a game that can be played in 5-7hrs
