Christmas Day, 2007: I open a gleaming, shimmering package of Crysis and proceed to stare at the box-art until 2008.
Jan 1st, 2008: Stop drooling, go online to Gamespot. Now I had heard that Crysis had some pretty hefty demands in terms of computer, but hey, nothing a beefed up 2005 Man Pro can't handle? WRONG. I had no clue regarding the specs of my computer until I checked, but my beast is actually dead meat to this game. I thought I was at the height of technological power when I played Warcraft 3 with nary a hitch in framerate performance. My machine struggled to render Overlord..... that probably should have been a sign... so I decided to one day upgrade my video card (it may be awhile). Until then, here's a list of signs your computer can't play crysis:
Top Signs That You Can't Play Crysis:
- Your Graphics Card pre-dates both Nvidia and ATI
- Your core processor is identical to the one in your toaster
- The last PC game you upgraded your rig for was Chessmaster
- You think that video cards come in booster packs
- The last signifigant upgrade made to your PC was that "clock" feature
- You're still not sure what @ means
- You thick that FPS stands for a new revenue collection agency
- You bought that PC just in time to play the new killer app: Minesweeper
