    I got BF3 a couple months =ago because it was on sale for $10. On paper, my PC met the System Requirments. But when I tried to launch the game, I found out I just don't have the cappable hardware.

    Is there anything I can do short of getting a new PC to get BF3 running?

    Nope, I'm fairly sure you do not meet the requirements.

    No, like I stated before, the memory limitations alone on consoles can't hold enough textures to be able to replicate Crysis 1.
