I am waiting for something to REALLY push our hardware, so far I see nothing that even requires what is offered from high end parts. I want to see something that really makes use of our hardware, even Crysis doesn't fully do this IMO. Games that are released from now on should try to push the limits - graphics wise. It seems they're releasing games that look like they should've been released 2 years ago and are simple to run. I'm actually kind of sick of it. Know what I'm saying?

I am with ya, all these new games coming out have $#!TTY gfx. Crysis was awesome when it first came out, but wtf is this? All games can look like 3mark vantage renders but game developers don't invest in high gfx settings. Most games are designed to run on lowbie comps.

p**sin' me off so much when another new game comes out and gfx look like crap. It makes it not worth the investment for a high end system. Sure it will last longer but by the time games utilize 70% of its potential, hardware is "outdated" somehow.
