The designers mention a 7800gtx playing it on med-high and a x1900xt playing it perfectly fine all high.. problem is i've seen omega's posts saying the 8800's would have a problem playing it. regardless i wouldnt play it on my current system.

You could play it!
It is a pretty demanding game but I think most people will be able to play it fine, on medium to high!
Anway, I'm getting it!
Same here....i will definatly get it when i get a new pc
whats wrong with it being demanding? many great games were demanding compaired to the computers that were out at the time of there release.
anybody thats not gonne buy it or think its senseless to need so much recourses needs to get with the times
computers are advancing, more programs and games will come out that will require the new hardware thats out. you can't expect to live in the under 1gb ram era for the rest of your life. 15 years ago 1gb of ram was unheard of, nobody thought we'd ever need it, and the biggest you could get was only a few mb of ram. it was just like it is now, we only get a few GB, 1 tb ram seems too large, people say we'll never need it, but just like with mb to gb, 15 years from now we might be getting tb ram.
anyway, will i *buy* it? no
will i obtain it from methods that cannot be discussed on this forum? yes

I as well as others have seen reviews of Crysis saying that the game cripples dual 8800GTX's when on highest settings.
The reason a 7800GTX and x1900XT may run it on medium or high settings is because it reverts back to DX9 mode, instead of using DX10's graphics.

The 8800 series are much better then the x1900XTX.
As I said before, the reason the x1900XTX can play Crysis on high settings is because it has to revert to DX9 mode. The reason Crysis is so crippling on the 8800's is because of all the new features they included were because of DX10. In DX9 mode it's probably similar to what Far Cry looks like.

it was the main reason for me getting an 8800 lol...of course i am going to get it
Are you serious? A first person shooter where you play as a cybernetically enhanced supersoldier who is airdropped into an international war on a remote, tropical island which also happens to be the sight of a crashed alien space ship which can extend a 100km wide dome which instantly freezes!!!!!!!! YOU FIND THAT BORING!!!! Oh yeah and it has drivable tanks too
