I would say Crysis, but that's just me. You will get much better performance with you machine out of CoD4 though. Crysis will bring what you have to its knees.

I agree. CoD is the same ol' same ol' now days. Playing the Crysis demo was truly refreshing. That's also why I like Bioshock so much.

cod4 isn't in the ww2 genre anymore for all those stereotypical types.

Call of Duty 4, i played the beta... worlds away from CoD2. Its amazing... although its really for those who mainly buy for online play, SP can be completed in a mere 5 - 7 hours. on easy or regular... but veteran is impossible.

Trust me, played the crysis beta, played the Crysis demo, played the CoD4 beta, played the CoD4 demo. CoD4 wins hands down.

Crysis will eat your system alive. No matter how well you think it will do.

CoD4, to me, seems like CoD2 and CoD3 with Arabs and modern guns. Graphics pretty much look the same with some razzle-dazzle here and there. I will give the game one thing though, it's got the best night-vision effect I've ever seen. Can't say I've played the multiplayer, so I wouldn't know about that.

However, I'm still gonna press Crysis, but then again, CoD4 will run a lot better on your system. Conclusion: Get CoD4 now, and Crysis once you upgrade that computer (sell it and build a new one).
