Crysis 2 on the consoles will be about the equivelent of running Crysis on medium settings at 1280 x 720.

(Judging by the tech demos)

It doesn't take much to run Crysis on high.

If you can afford a 360 and PS3, you can afford a $140 9800 GTX or Radeon 4850...

You obviously haven't played the game.

When I first played this I had a crap PC. Low-medium settings looked pretty bad but even without the graphics, Crysis was a fantastic game. Why do you think it was critically acclaimed?

@Svk007

Even a $90 GPU will do fine. That's less than the price of two games.
