What hermit doesn't have a 200gb+ hard drive?

The same hermits that say you don't need cutting edge/alot to be a hermit.

wrong! Even those that don't have cutting edge have atleast 200gb. Hell I don't know a single person complaining about lack of storage space on the pc. Because hard drives are cheap as hell.

Thats not entirely true, I just bought a 250GB HDD 2 monts ago, before I was using a 40GB HDD. And HDD are expensive here

Sorry Dell Dimension 2400, you won't be able to run this game

[QUOTE="-voodoo_child-"]Well, I guess this is the end of 360 fans hiding behind the "well Crysis fits on a DVD, Blu Ray isn't needed" crap...-voodoo_child-

Now if only Crysis was possible in its current form on consoles, Blu-Ray supporters would have an argument.

But it isn't a pro Blu-ray argument, that's the point, it's just that in every "is BR needed" thread there is always the "Crysis fits on one DVD so a DVD is enough" and now that is proven wrong. That's all. I'm not saying Crysis could be ported to a console it is just that we are seeing a lot more games that need more room.

This is not a Pro Blu-Ray argument this is a PRO HDD arguement. Again I will ask. Why do we need to absorb the costs of Sony's Blu-Ray drive when the PS3 like a PC has a standard HDD equipped in every console?

My 8800gts should beable to tear that game apart then

It's just been released at the EA store that the minimum requirements are:

[QUOTE="EA Store"]MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Intel Pentium 4 @ 2.8 GHz or AMD equivalent 1GB RAM nVidia GeForce 6800GT/256 or ATI Radeon 9800 Pro/256 Microsoft Windows DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card HD free space 16GB-R3Volation

Don't jump around yet...there's been no official confirmation from EA or Crytek. But, a little while ago, the CEO of Crytek, Cevat Yerli, said that they would be released in the middle of September.

This is 3/4 year old hardware, people.

Erm, that's pretty fake. Since when did 9800Pro became almost as powerful as 6800GT. Isn't 6800GT like 1.5x more powerful than 9800pro?

Eh, not really, maybe the 6800 Ultra. Considering the x700 is equivalent to the 6600GT and the 9800Pro is between x700 and x800 (which is equivalent to the Ultra).

There just isn't really anything else in between. And yes the 6800GT is faster than the 9800 Pro but not by a lot.

INcrediably false.. a 6800 GT is WAY faster then a 9800 pro.. The 6800 GT has 16 pixel pipelines, twice the amount of the 9800 pro..

Who the hell wants to play this game on low settings and with a stuttering framerate.

I would NEVER play a game on anything less than medium settings, there's always something lost in the process. Atleast you could be bumping medium specs.

only 500? i have 800GB of disk space, 16 gigs is nothing

also, threegodhalo, you do realise crysis has 2x the graphics, vastly larger area to explore, and far better physics do you not?

that is not to say halo3 looks/plays bad, it dosent, its just not close to the scale crysis is at

Ram

1. Obviously Halo 3 is a smaller game... It only takes up 6 gigs. You even stated that yourself.

2. The 360 has 512mb shared ram. Puny. Minimum for PC is 256mb video, and 1024mb system. 360 cant handle the game.

3. No it cannot run DX10. The 360s GPU can be compared to a X1950PC video card... Which is now budget priced.

4. The 360s 3 Core is actually less efficient than a standard Core 2 Duo.

5. No it descent run Gears " like a hot knife through* butter". The game is @ 30fps in a small environment, and even dips into the low 20s. I cant speak for Halo 3 until Monday.

Sheesh when will fanboys learn to use logic.

No wonder, your 20gb 360 HDD must be having some sort of effect on you.

Shesssh 320gb drives have been the norm for years, and costs virtually next to nothing in GB per $ ratio.

And who knows how the 2900XT may run it.

And exactly at what resolutions on the highest settings to 'tear apart' the game?

consoles are not the only thing threegodhalo is ignorant on, you should go see his "Help! Muslims have moved into my neighborhoo!" thread. It's pretty much the reason why I decided to completely ignore his posts, and you should too.

*facepalm*

Oh Crytek, why must you be one of the only developers who spends tons of time optimising? This pretty much means I could have run Crysis on my older, pre-X1650Pro setup... :|

Why does PC gaming only seem to get better?
foxhound_fox

well, to be fair, this is only their second franchise, we really didn't know if they were going to optimise or not

I beat Far Cry on a P3 400mhz, 256mb of RAM, and a GeForce 2MX 32mb.

That alone is a testiment to Cryteks wonderful technical work.

How is that possible? I thought x800 was competing with 6800, 6600 with x700 or x600. Isn't 9800pro like a generation behind 6800gt? It doesn't have SM 3.0 and other stuff. I dunno about the clock speeds but if 9800pro is able to run Crysis at the same settings as 6800GT then that's pretty screwed up.

the x600/x700 are pixel shader 2.0b cards just like the 9800 pro, the x700 is almost equal in power to 9800 pro, the x700 is weaker.

6800 gt has 16 pixel pipelines it has ps 3.0 the 9800 pro has 8, the x700 has 8 the x600 has like 4 .

edit* if it is a SLI problem, as stated a few comments down, then you raise a decemt point. It is a beta...

I have 640 video RAm on the card, I hope that is good.

and yeah, I was actually planning almost a year ahead :P

sli actually has very little use. It's only to get the best performance at it's current time. If a newer card is released lets say the 9800GTs, it will most likely run better than two 8800gts at roughly the same price.

we shall see. i hope so, im tired of getting TERRIBLE performance.lespaul1919

According to some users ingame, Core 2 Duo and Quads are not even working properly with the game, the performance over single core is barely shown.... wait fora few patchs ... PC Beta's are typically like this ... look at World in conflict ... it was also a mess at the time of beta (Performance wise)

16GB is just too much.Deihmos

Why? The more the better......

16 GB's is pretty large....though not really a problem for anyone.....I really cant think of any game thats this size.

it will probably come on several DVD's.

This is going to take 2 hours to install and half an hour to load.SuperVegeta518

Lol no :S

This is going to take 2 hours to install and half an hour to load.SuperVegeta518

[QUOTE="Deihmos"]16GB is just too much.trix5817

Why? The more the better......

The more the better? I don't see where people get this idea from. PC games don't use losless audio or whatever you call it. Hell most games use MP3 sound so I don't see why this game would be a whopping 16GB on my hard drive. Imaging how long it will take to load and install. Is this official because I highly doubt it requires 16GB.
