Crysis Demo released today

[QUOTE] I am curious to see if my computer can handle this game. My guess is no.

Crysis will no doubt be a fairly demanding game. It will require a good system to perform well. However, CryEngine2 is very scalable so lower end machines will still stand a chance. Here are the official, and complete system requirements for Crysis.

I’m half expecting my PC to DIAF. I meet the minimum and then some, but I don’t want to look at cheep textures and low quality shaders. Who knows though, it may be a very well optimized game
