Crysis 1 because it's an unoptimized mess. Crysis 2 actually uses your GPU.

Some custom maps for Crysis 2 have brought back the scale of Crysis 1 maps and they run much better than Crysis 1 ever did.

This is something i dont understand.....i have a e6750 @ 3.4ghz and a gtx 460 and i am not limited at all in Crysis 1 with 99% gpu usuage, yet in Crysis 2 im around 70/80%ish. I would argue Crysis 1 is less cpu intensive that Crysis 2 despite its larger scale.

Now there seems to be faint whispers of how console gaming may in fact die(which hold more weight than the usual arguements regarding the death of pc gaming but still pretty unlikely in my opinion,im sure they will adapt to for eg free to play models and find someway to be profitable) and be replaced by apps or even streaming systems like onlive! Pc gaming as its not run or funded by a single company the way in which consoles are and so can never die so its possible there make come a time when microsoft, sony and nintendo decide that its simply not profitable to make a games console and all we would have left is pc gaming...unless of course you count the pseudogames on smartphones hardcore games

[QUOTE="dom2000"] I would doubt that, theres a well documented link between depression and obesity, im not saying everyone who is fat is sad, but its proven that those who are obese and at a much greater risk of mental illness including depression. Id assume you would have no bother with lazy people who cant be bothered working and are happy enough to live off benefits?MrGeezer

Which doesn't mean very much without some proof of causation.

As far as lazy people go, what does that have to do with obesity? I hope you're not trying to imply that obese people aren't valuable members of the work force.In any case, those benefits are there for people to use. Unless someone's committing some kind of actual fraud in order to get those benefits, then what would be the problem?

I would disagree with that, if theres a clear and well documented link between a and b, even if we dont understand the link, it still "means" alot! You do realise there are many medical treatments that work and we have no general consenus as to why.

Y'know, sometimes people become obese due to physical complications. It's not always a lack of discipline or desire to be healthy.

Im aware of that which is why i said some people have my sympathies but you would be crazy to think anywhere near the majority of obese people have this problem....

[QUOTE="dom2000"]

Personally i find it difficult to respect someone who would allow themselves to get into such a poor condition and not have the strength of mind to number 1 cut the crap out of their diet and number 2 get off their sofas and go do abit of exercise. With some disipline there is no reason why they cant drop off the extra pounds and become much healthier and likely happier as a result.

Ofcourse due to genetics its much harder for some than others but still the vast majority of people a healthy BMI is within reach. For those minority who no matter how hard they work still find themselves overweight they ofcourse have my sympathies but unfortunately very few obese people i have met qualify? Am i being too harsh? Considering the considerable mortality and morbidity attributely to obesity and the massive amount of money used to treat diseases that result from it...i dont think so. Smoking I view similarly but thats for another topic :) Id love to hear your views!

MrGeezer

*shrugs*

Some (I'd wager most) are simply perfactly happy being obese, and don't really need your or my sympathy anyway.

As far as respect, you can disrespect anyone (and they can disrespect you) for any reason. I tend to think that that generally says more about the person doing the disrespecting than it says about the one receiving it. But hey, your call.

I would doubt that, theres a well documented link between depression and obesity, im not saying everyone who is fat is sad, but its proven that those who are obese and at a much greater risk of mental illness including depression.

Instead of trying to make a great game they tried to make a game that sells.

Do you only play games that push a systems hardware?

Thought consoles were to blame that pc games have barely improved in graphics since 2007....

Anyone read David Gemmell?? His books are absolutely epic and would really work well as films! Seeing Druss the Legend hold Dros Delnoch against an army of a million Nadir would be seriously great! I suggest anyone unfamilar with gemmell and loves fantasy to look him up...right now!
