Guys, it plays fine with the "optimal settings" on my laptop. I got ~24fps avg on these settings, but really, playing it at these conditions aren't that bad. Honestly, it looks beautiful even with the settings turned down.

I just downloaded it and installed but after I click on finish there's no way to start the game. I searched for it and all that comes up is the installation zip.

Did you check: C:\Program Files? That's what it is XP, might be different in Vista...

Apparently there are different download sizes and the one I downloaded from nvidia is 1.77 gig and there are ones that are 1.813 gig which I'm downloading now. There is one thats over 1.9 gigs too. I wonder why there's a difference.

Maybe 'cause some are compressed?

This was playable on my system but at such low settings that it was ugly. Kind of reminds me of a combination of HL2 and FarCry with a little Call of Duty thrown in.

downloading now (20 minutes to go)... I am curious how it will run on my system at 1440x900 (system in sig)... if it doesn't do so well, I may have to get a crossfire capable mobo and get me another X1950GT since they're so cheap money-wise.
