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 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> </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> </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>

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>

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.
