Avatar is like Crysis

Post by Anayo »

Think about it: they're both beautiful to look at and lots of fun, but not particularly profound or deep.

I think I like Crysis better. What do you think?

Crysis does have the excellent Mechwarrior Living Legends mod for it, so it wins hands down.

My computer will be able to run Avatar when it comes out on DVD. Avatar wins.

I see that as Avatar loses, as it's not convincing you to get a real computer.

"Real" computer? Please. The amount of processing power offered in modern computers is completely superfluous for people who aren't A) playing graphics intensive games B) creating CPU intensive art, like 3D renders, hi res graphics, etc.

From about 2004 to 2008 I used a 2.2 Ghz CPU, 1 GB ram PC with a 128 MB graphics card and it was fine.

I've beaten Crysis. I've seen Avatar. Neither interest me enough to come back.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. wins.

Actually these specs are not bad at all. There is a ton of titles that run on these specs and frankly your sarcasm is really uncalled for.

Isn't the Avatar game in 3d? To render two separate images for each eye, you're going to need twice the PC than for a standard game. And you'll need a display that can do 120hz (60hz/eye).
