| Re: Should i buy Crysis ? Are you kidding, it'll work great on that system. But I personally recommend the HL2 series over Crysis. Get the Orange Box for sure.

| Re: Should i buy Crysis ? :O Are we forgetting the all important CoD4!?!?! Get it =] It's awesome on 360, so I presume it's awesome on PC. I'd have it; but my rig is ****, considering my graphics card is still AGP  but yes. Get CoD4 aswell! =]

| Re: Should i buy Crysis ? I hated Crysis I found its single player rubbish compared to CoD4's. And didn't even bother to try to multiplayer. It ran like crap on my pc with reasonable settings, and i wouldn't say my pc is slow 2GB ram, E6850@3Ghz and 8800GTS 320MB @ 1280x720.

| Re: Should i buy Crysis ? I thought Crysis was alright. It just depends on the type of game you prefer. Also you can try game demos before you spend money on the full game. I don't think I have seen any for crysis though. Also I wouldn't buy games from Best buy or Wal-Mart or other retail stores. You could save lots of money by finding them on eBay. I have had very little problem buying games on eBay. I bought my crysis game for $26.00 USD when it was still $50.00 USD in the stores.
