There are no dumb questions, only dumb people to ask them

Well.. I just bought Crysis, and I'd heard so much great stuff about it (especially the graphics), and then after waiting a few hours for the 12 GB installing, I found out that it laggs REALLY bad.. My computer was supposed to fit the requirements though..

I my own religion.. xD

Congratulations! You're the proud owner of 2008's "Benchmark of the Year". There's a game in there too. somewhere. To play, you selectively upgrade your computer until the hidden levels become playable. But don't get too attached, it's over all too soon.

specs?  Setting you ran it on?  A lot of people try to play games on the exact minimum specs and expect it to run well.

Welcome to the future of graphics, and extreme requirements on the computers, but that's hardly necessary to add in our marketing campaign.
