"You don't need Vista and DX10 this time around for the highest-end effects - you can max out the graphics with DX9 on XP"

Thanks Crytek, but I believe we have been doing this since the Crysis demo came out.

(I tested myself DX10 very high vs. DX9 modded configs, and if anyone can show me a difference between the two I'll be damned)

Yeah, F.E.A.R for instance.

Haha I agree. They said a 3 year old computer could run the first one before it launched.

they probably have the 8600 volt modded to 1ghz or something crazy like that. I might buy this game so i can break out my 8600gts and see if it actually works.
