Yes, Crysis looks way cool. Perhaps when I can afford it . . .

For now My mainstays are mostly older stuff: Quake II, Diablo II, Doom 3, Call to Duty . . .
I also have the Doomsday suite but not installed on my new PC . . . yet.
A couple of others I find interesting are Heretic II and Titan Quest.

But there are games that will not run on modern systems that I miss. I wish they would have made sequels to StoneKeep and Anvil of Dawn from the 90s.

Also, I found that my brand new system plays Freecell really really well!

I think I'll download the demo of Crysis to see how it runs on this machine. I see where some people kind of use it as a benchmark. Is it really that demanding?

I play it on my main Computer (Q6600,GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB, 4GB Ram) on high and it plays well "the graphics are very good so it would need a mid to high GPU".

I'll see how it does . . if I can get it downloaded. It's going to take awhile, it seems. I hope my little 8500GT is up to the challenge.

Well, I installed the Crysis demo but I don't think it's working right.
First, when I look at the other soldiers all I can see is their eyeballs. I'm sure that's not normal - looks kind of cool and creepy, but not what I would expect to see. In fact, the trailer on the EA site shows the same scene, in the airplane before the drop, and you can see everyone just fine.
Then, the the island I can rarely see anything at all; the screen is blacked out. If I look straight down I can see the sand but, well here's a screen shot where I can actually see part of the scene, but you can see the blacked out area. Surely that's not how it's supposed to be, is it?
