So, anyone enjoying this game? Anybody having trouble running it on their PC?
I'm thinking of picking it up but I don't know if it will play well on my computer.</p>
 
I have it and I (literally, unfortunately) inherited a computer that will play it, but i am terrible at this type of game.</p>

The graphics are really good as far as I've been able to get.</p>

I downloaded the demo and my video card couldn't take it. I had to play it on low settings which is pretty ugly. Seems like a good game, but I can't stand playing with awful graphics.</p>

Test your computer here: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srl</p>

After that I recommend that you download the demo, just in case.</p>

^ I have a fairly new computer with an 256MB 8600 GTS video card in it, but the advisor is suggesting an 8800 GTS with 640MB of RAM.</p>

Um, wow. That's pretty much two 320MB cards running in parallel. Sorry I don't have $800 laying around to play ONE game.</p>

Anyways I think my PC will run it in average/medium settings, thanks for the help.</p>
 
its been said that most high end computers cant really run Crysis on Max setting, its a game way ahead of its time.</p>

Try the demo. That way you will know what to expect.</p>

This computer is running a Radeon 2900XT with 1024MB of RAM.</p>

Judging by the guy who built it, that's probably expensive.</p>

It cannot, BTW, run the game with max settings. It runs perfect on all "high" settings, though.</p>

I think the game is made for two video cards running in unison so one--even a high end desktop processing one, like what I think yours is--probably won't cut it (for maxed-out settings).

Anyways, I tried the demo, it ran alright on medium settings, though the draw distance was a little short.

The game looks fun but I'm not inspired to buy it. I didn't much like FarCry and this seems like a similar experience.
 
I haven't played a PC game since the times of Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne and Starcraft Brood War. My PC has become obselete for Crysis but it looks pretty though.
 
I watched a video of it in RE (lol, we're doing violence in video games) and it looked super special awesome.
