I think it would have been great if they would have released it on consoles too; maybe it would have played better. I just hate it when they say that a recommended pc configuration to play the game is built around a 7800...come on...I like to think that a recommended system should be able to smoothly play a game that has the video options maxed out at a reasonable resolution (1280x1024 min)...I understand that marketing sells games, but hey...

It means that Crysis is an excellent benchmark, but as a real-world game it needs a lot of tweaking. Games do of course push the envelope when it comes to performance, but a certain restraint is needed when releasing it. Not everyone outside of the developer-company has dual 9800GX2's running on Skulltrail-hardware. Storywise it was a disappointment. I like the first part of the game, but after that it just went downhill... Stefan: The system requirements are extremely silly.

It is kind of nice but it's requirement are just insane. Anything above 1280x1024 with everything full (no AA, no AF) gives you pretty low framerates even with a high performance graphics card(sub 30fps)(I consider 30 fps to be the limit of a good play experience). Bioshock was/is an awesome game...but I didn't really like the story. Right now I'm waiting for GTA4, maybe Mafia 2 and Starcraft 2. Crysis was a big disappointment for me too.
