Like I said, my machine isn't anywhere near good enough to run that. I guess I might have it by July since then I'll have a machine to run the baddest of the bad.

Just kidding. I can run it, but can't dish out 50 bucks just now.

Are there any gameplay examples for sins? They convinced me to buy GCII...

I second this, are there are beta / developer AARs around for Sins?

There was some gameplay videos from the betas available on their forum, not sure if they're still there.

I downloaded some gameplay videos posted by one of the regular Sins forum members and have them on my PC somewhere. The files are rather large (200MB a pop) but here is a link to the thread if you're interested. They may be a little dated though.
