So... I upgraded my rig from an Intel Core Duo 2.0, 2 gigs of ram @667 and a 9400 gt...

to a Intel core 2 duo 8400 @3.0 (overclocking pending :P), 4 gigs of ram @800 and a 9800GTX+

Before I could run crysis on medium with decent FPS, but now I'm sure I can do more than that. I've almost made my mind, so my question is... Would YOU do another playthrough?

Yes, but I would consider playing Warhead a 2nd time even more since it has hidden content (the frogs).

Well, I got Warhead, but I haven't started playing yet, so that was my question, start Warhead, or play Crysis another time.

I played through Crysis twice. The second time was on a higher difficulty. Just keep in mind that the stage where you have to fly that airship will be super-hard because its so hard to control.

Yeah :p forgot about that. Well if you liked it a lot on medium, then maybe play Warhead, but if you didn't like it that much on medium play it again, it will be more fun with awesome explosions and all, but remember Warhead does that even better :).

I've already played through Crysis 2 times (i skipped the alien part, so boring), and Crysis Warhead, 3. Yep, it's worth it.

If you have warhead, i'd play through Crysis one last time before you started warhead. The graphics are still gorgeous but it's not really the same as Crysis, don't care what they claim. Just remember, you gotta do the friggin' "underwater" tunnels again..I hated that..kept getting lost >:|.

Absolutely. I played on medium first time with ~30 fps at low res then played on high with ~40fps second time. You should definitely play it on high with a decent res if it's at all possible. I enjoyed it a lot more the second time through with smooth gameplay and graphics the way they were intended. The other cool thing is you can try out alternative paths/tactics to your first playthrough. That will keep it fresh on your second play (at least until the halfway point).

Or people just want to enjoy Crysis in its near full/full glory?

Any game can be used as a benchmarking tool, Crysis just gets it more because it is at the top.

well yes, I had the 1gb version, which is still crap, and I had XP... Maybe that helps clarify things a bit :P

And I didn't say the game was steady, on the last boss fight I had to turn a few things to low, because it was nearly a slide show.
