Crysis Warhead won't make your PC cry

If this is true? Don't hold your breath until the demo or reviews go live.

You're saying that like it's a bad thing?

It is in a way mundox. I think all of us gamers kind of dream of photo-realistic real-time graphics through a high interactive/innovative control system with great gameplay.

The great gameplay is a hit or miss (See: Haze) and what some consider good gameplay others may not (See: MSG4)

Graphics are a bit different though. Most of the public can tell when they see something they like or that looks good to them. When games hit a new-level of graphical capabilities in a genre, it usually sells decently well (See: FF7, Halo CE, Gears of War, etc)

The nice part about pc gaming is you can experience those cutting-edge graphics by investing more money into your system if there is a game to stress your system.

For example, I could go out and buy two GTX280s and have substantially better graphics than the ps3 and xbox 360 combined in most games. (good aa, af and much higher native resolutions). However, if a game does not exist to stress my dual GTX280s, and its limited to the nearest most powerful console. Its a mute point. Why bother getting anything better than an ATI Radeon x1900 which is about what is a 360?

When I played the game with the highest settings, I thought the graphics were awesome, but when I saw how fabulously my computer ran every other new game out there, noticeably overtaxing. I imagined they could trim the fat and get it running much better, and now Crytek's doing just that. Hey, that's great.

They are doing that! But see, there's even BETTER settings. Oblivion had this too, where you'd edit up the INI file and the game would look a ton better. But Crysis... Wow dude. You're missing out if you think everything on high was as good as it gets :P. I'm not being mean or insulting if it sounds like that.

I can't find the link, but it was truly amazing. I've even got something on my rig to run at high or medium graphics, but it's tweaked so it looks like very high or better, but at the performance of high or medium. Pretty cool eh?

Really, i run at 28-32 fps on a P4 3.6, 1gb ddr and a 7100 GeForce overclocked to 512 (srtest.com claims I have 1 gb, don't know how) at low specs, and the game still looks gr8

punny

Yeah, a $600 PC at this point is nothing too shabby if you know how to choose your parts.

Thats weak man, get a better monitor when you can, you'll really appreciate the extra screen estate!
