Crysis is coming this year on PC and is looking mindblowing ,and i am sure it ll be awesome and may be the best pc game ever when its released on PC this year. and to run crysis, i ll need a Direct X 10 compatible pc with Vista. .My PC Specs are
AMD 3000 ,1.8 ghz Processor , 1 GB ram,n vidia Gforce 6600 GT 256 Pci gpu,5.1 Logitech surround sound speakers. 19 inch Samsung Flat Monitor,and i am not sure that my pc will be able to handle this beast. so is it worth upgrading a pc for a game like this , i think my answer will be hell yeah only if i have the money.but when i think about upgrading my pc every year , i think its a total waste of my hard earned money . i bought my new pc last year and spent almost 1200 us $ on it ,and all i enjoyed on it was half life 2, far cry,doom 3 ,call of duty 2 and a couple of games ( all were ported to consoles later) .
on the other hand i spent around 500 us $ on a Xbox 360 and games for it and enjoyed it more than my pc .and now games like oblivion,fear and prey run ok on my pc but not at higher resolutions. and now it looks like my pc is dead for games like crysis. so is it worth it to spend every year on upgrading ur pc for a single game every year .i dont think so ,its a total waste in my opinion, sure crysis looks awesome and will surely be phenomenal when its released later this year .but i aint upgrading my pc at the moment for crysis .may be alan wake will change my mind ,but i think its also coming to the 360 . and there are only rumours at this point that crysis will be ported on Ps3 and Xbox360.
PC gaming is becoming expensive day after day. and i think very soon pc gaming will be out of reach for manny gamers if it continues to get expensive like this. sure pc gaming is far from being dead, but next gen consoles will definately lead gaming in the future . look at games like gears of war and motorstorm on the 360 and PS3 ,its just the begining, and i am sure that consoles will be and is the ultimate choice for gaming. and now the exclusivity over pc games is not that good that is used to be years ago, almost every single pc hit is now available on a console whether it be this gen or the old gen. so a pc upgrade, definately not worth at the moment, but now with Vista and Direct X 10 , i ll be upgrading to that for sure, but i dont think that it ll be worth upgrading to a Direct X 10 GPU ,as it is so dam expensive now.
So its best to get a next gen console like PS3, XBOX360 or Wii that atleast stays for 5 years , plays games without asking for a hardware upgrade. is user friendly, has an awesome online service like xbox live. and has more and better exclusivity of games than pc games.
