I have a Soundblaster Live!, so my card should support this.
I really only ask because the manual and official readme file state that EAX 2 is an available sound option. So is the documentation wrong, or is it a bug?

I believe the manual is wrong and EAX 2 is in fact not available. Didn't see anything about EAX in the readme though.

That would be very strange because the trailer has the Creative X-fi logo at the end and almost all games since 2001 can use EAX (1,2,3)
Maybe it autodetects the best option? I don't have my copy yet, so I don't know much about the config options

Only works with EAX 3 and 4.
My card's an Audigy SE and it supports up to EAX 3 hardware and it showed EAX 4 also in the settings although it doesn't support it (only with the newer drivers, but I don't think that that's hardware support). So it's not autodetected.

It's really no big deal anyway, as the SRS Circle Surround still works great on stereo output, and even has slight environmental effects reminiscent to EAX if you're paying attention to it (so do all the software modes, I think, must be akin to what Miles does).
I like EAX though, even EAX 2, so I just wanted to make sure the documentation was indeed incorrect before shelving the issue.
