there has been much debate about this, and are they "too much?"
At first i was like "fuck the haters" because we spend all this money on our PCs and finally a game comes a long that actually justifies that expense. A hardcore, fuck the newbs, system-killing game.
All praise Crytek. Raise the bar and all that shit.
But then again, I was able to play EP2, Portal, Bioshock and Cod4 at 1920x1200 with everything maxed at 60fps, and I liked it.
Crysis? I have to play at 1600x1200 with a mixture of medium and high settings, and it runs at about 30fps. It's playable, but barely.
So on the one hand I praise the move to the next gen and how it will really push technology. But on the other hand I wish it was a bit less demanding and ran better on very high end systems like my own.
So I'm conflicted.

That said, I wouldn't bitch about the Crysis performance for a minute. I like to see new games w/ the balls to push the hardware envelope, and when they do, I'm not going to moan about my uber rig's performance. I know I can get a fantastic looking game at a decent resolution with this title on my hardware, and I look forward to playing it again after another generation of hardware upgrades.
You don't come on a hardcore gaming forum and expect that the folks there aren't hardcore. Sure you can make your argument to the unwashed gaming-on-Dell-rigs masses, but anyone in the Shack chatroom? Wrong crowd.
