It's actually kinda sad...
I finally got myself a .45 colt SAA in October and I still haven't fired it yet.
First gun I've ever purchased that I didn't fire the same day.
As for Crysis, magyk, you can make graphics that look realistic on Supercomputers with UBER graphics cards, but who does it really benefit?
The 8800GTS I bought right about the time Crysis came out actually came with Crysis (probably the only reason I own it), but a) I didn't have an OS at the time that supported DX10 (and, I suppose, most dudes didn't, either.) and b) I could only play decently on medium graphics.
When I first built my computer, it scored in the top 10 percentile according to 3Dmark.
You pretty much needed an SLI or crossfire config and DX10 to get anywhere near where the game was meant to be played at the time it was released.
I will agree that Crysis it the most graphics-intensive game I've ever actually played.

Supposedly the Crysis engine was poorly designed, and is not efficient at all. (according to exar anyways)
