5120x3200 Crysis Screenshots--This is BLASPHEMY! This is MADNESS!

I've been wondering about that, and now I've confirmed it; Crysis with all of it's fan dangles would make a PS3 explode. AoTS experimented with running Crysis on Very High including all extra features with FRAPS running in the background. They were able to squeeze out 25-30 frames, but that was it.

They did the experiment with the new HP BlackBird 002.

Of course I've also seen comments on GT about this, where members were getting pissed because they couldn't run the game on high and get above 10 frames with their thousand dollar computers.

Well, thats part of the problem. Thats really not that good of a system to be running the game on max.

But also, you need to remember the style of Crytec games, in which they make the games so that they can run well on low-end systems, but at the same time, as computers improve, their games can continue to push the systems to the max.
Farcry was used as a benchmarking game for years, where as most games will see, at the most, a year as being used to test the power of systems.

That alone creates a problem, because $1K systems SHOULD be able to run this game on max settings, or any game for that matter, why do you have to spend so much money on a system so powerful the only thing you'll be using it is for crysis.
