Dont ignore this todays gpus are not powerful enough for crysis. here is another proof

http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/1211/crysis_demo_performance_analysis/index.html

"You would think that after looking at this Crysis would be a bit of a video card seller, but clearly there is nothing in this generation that is really going to offer the ultimate Crysis experience; we'll have to wait till later in the year."

What about my poor 8800 GTS 320MB???

You don't NEED the game to be on maximum graphical settings for it to be good and look great. That being said, the demo was a little dissappointing as far as gameplay went...

Would you have preferred if Crytek just made the entire game 2d like the first Wolfenstein, with absolutely no image quality enhancements that you could take advantage of later just so you could run it at "max settings." Max settings is just something people that care too much about their own e-ego whine about. Did you maybe think that perhaps Crytek made it so max settings *weren't able to be easily done using current hardware? You know, so that maybe if you ever played this game in the future, when you had better hardware, the game would STILL look amazing even then?

Really, as long as the core gameplay remains intact, and the visuals you are getting in the game are still amazing (not terrible for the framerate you're getting) why even complain? The only valid complaints are that the minimum requirements to run the game well are indeed very high or that the visuals aren't worth the massive FPS hit due to bad optimization. God forbid game developers actually take advantage of newer hardware and actually make technical advancements. Nope, we can't have any of that!

lol those benchmarks only shows that the game requires a monster to be played at 1900x1240, but on lower resolutions a mid/high end rig should be more then enough to run it

Thats extremely fickle TC. The game still looks leaps and bounds better than the vast majority of console games for now and for some time at high and very high settings. You don't need max settings, and I i'm surprised you expected max settings with that card. Using your logic might as well hang up console gaming too, because its going to look worse than crysis for quite some time.

XenoNinja

most pc gamers started playng games on consoles, they get their friest video game as a birthday gift etc, then as they get older realise that pc gamming has more to offer then consoles, and since now they can afford their hobbys then can spend more then they used to without relyng on their parents money to do it,(at least thats me and my friends) 2day i play on both systems, mainly on pc and then on a Wii and a Ps2, still i think the pc is the overall better system.

The demo was sloppy, just like UT3's, but the the final games will be better and everyone will eat their words of criticism.

And anyone looking to run Crysis with anything less than a 8800 series card deserves to be owned.

My pc doesn't have space for dual slot cards so I need a good single slot card. Here is my specification- Core2 Qx6950, 4GB ram, Intel GMAX3000 intergrated Gpu. How is my Cpu?Big_Black_Eyes

And those specs are totally overkill, i doubt you eve bought those parts

But you have 2 gb of ram?

I have 2x1GB ram is it dual channel?Big_Black_Eyes

Total contradiction

So i assume you are lying

Well crysis has alot to do with graphics being amazing, but I guess playing in HD doesn't ring a bell in your head.

Crysis was made with the next-generation of graphics cards in mind to put more detail into the game.

What are you complaining about?

This is a well-known fact and has been for many months.

True, but it's FarCry 1.5 without the graphics.
