I know Crysis has been out since late 2007, but it was only now that I’ve had a “Crysis capable” computer. I downloaded and installed the demo (the download weighed in at 1.8GB). I played it at low settings, though by default it suggested medium settings. I ran through the entire demo and saw no significant loss of frame rate. All I can say of the admittedly small portion of Crysis I ran through is that it’s basically a retooled version of Far Cry with better graphics and a better story.

I’ve played Crysis a couple of times on a Core 2 Quad with 8800GTX combo. It’s good stuff, I’d say, but it’d probably fail miserably if I ever tried running it.

I love how they have “NVIDIA: The way it’s meant to be played” and “Best played on Core 2 CPUs” ads before the game. I have neither an NVIDIA GPU or an Intel CPU.
And I doubt I’ll get an Intel CPU (yet anyway), as I’m eyeing a quad core Opteron for $75.
