So I tried to play with my geforce 6600gt 128mb, 1gb ram, intel 4 and windows xp. When I start the game I was forced to play on the lowest resolution and settings so I took some screenshots so you guys can see it.

Seriously... I mean, I'm all for games having settings enabling them to run on lower-spec'd machines, but not when they look that ugly... maybe pumping up the resolution a little bit would help...

The 6600GT is capable of delivering much better graphics, that just looks horrendous. Seriously, it's not worth playing any modern game with that image quality. It's supposed to be low quality, not crap quality! Is there any pixel doubling option in Gears of War? I remember FEAR had that option and what it did was essentially reduce the resolution in half, so if the game was already running at 640*480, the actual resolution displayed was of 320*240... hideous!

I tried to put it on 1024x768 but then the game would just crash to destop.

That's a good idea, but I still say the game shouldn't look that bad on low settings.

Wow, I'm sure you can play older games like hl2 and far cry and have it look much better than that, so I dont know why newer games are scaled so that they look absolutely fugly when played on older systems. It looks like you're playing a Nintendo DS game.

Wanna know something wierd? the game runs the exact same for me on Low and on Highest settings, and I have double like everything the requirements say you need. It's odd, I start playing, it's pretty smooth, and then I'll lag at the most random parts, not like when there's a ton of guys on screen, it's just like my computer thinks "bah w/e, he plays too many games *lag*"

I guess it proves the possiblity of a Wii version......skrat_01

Haha, lets see if they can dumb down crysis, I wanna throw a chicken and punch it using the wiimote.

i just upgraded from the agp version of the 7600 gt and it would NOT have done that, so i think that its cos he has a cor duo 2 and a pci expressmobo, probobly overclocked it too.

My flatmate runs it with an amd 3500 +, 1gb ram, and a 6600gt with more than 128mb video ram i think (they released versions with up to 512 i think). All settings low, of course, but resolution is 1024x768, and it looks and runs fine. its possible that the extra video memory is whats making the difference; but id expect a normal 6600gt to handle 1024x768 (i used to have one). Maybe try some tests? Got the latest drivers and everything? The latest directx is important, for both xp and vista.

Also, the single player campaign will mostly like thrash a bit when loading new areas, if you have 1gb of ram. Its not good programming really, but it still plays fine when its not loading. Also, the multiplayer runs absolutely fine, him and me and a couple of others just had a nice little bloodbath...
