Well, Cry Engine 3 is not very pretty engine, but it should be highly optimised. Try to find a video of someone playing Crysis 2 on your specs, find a forum thread about it, or any refference it is actually possible. You can also try to download their SDK, run the forest level, set to the lowest settings and pray.

The requirements of the series were highly varied. MW 2 was a marvel of its age pioneering 3D acceleration, MW 4 on the other hand, was still good, but nothing superficial both in terms of graphics and requirements for the age.

Good luck trying it, I had to play on 1 Ghz Pentium 3 PC for 10 years and it still serves my little brotherm, so I know how hard it is to play games on old hardware. ;)

There are loads of good American small brewing companies, I'll admit that our big brewing companies have direct pipes to unfiltered sewage plants however.

Yes lets not confuse Budwieser, Coors, and all the other swill out there with the word "lite" or "light" etc.. as "American Beer"

Some of the best ports and stouts I have had have come from AMERICAN (And Canadian) micro-brews..

Because lets not forget.. Mexico has Corona, and a bunch of watered down swill, and even the Europeans are not immune to mass produced lighter than water swill (Hieniken), even Canadians are not immune to making crap light beers (Labatts, etc..)

BTW like to point out Yeungling is the largest AMERICAN Owned Brewery, and their lager has color and body, thier "Light" Lager, is darker and has more character than a Bud or MGD, much less thier LIGHT beers. They also make a killer Porter, and a Black&Tan (Which is their lager and porter half/half mixed).

I also give you Sam Adams.. they make a great number of beers that aren't crap.. (and some that are just pain odd). THier Octoberfest is one of my favorites.

Then there are all the microbrews out there.. like Highland Brewing Company, Old Dominion Brewing, Legend Brewery, Abita, and those are just a few I favor.

So you hosers up there need to keep that in mind.. I mean really.. are you ones to judge what is good beer ???

BURNS !!! The physical pain is your body telling you its bad for you.. Beer on the other hand.. goes down smooth..

And I've been drinking Firestone Walker IPA most of tonight. I've had few things from Canada that can compete with that, outside of Unibroue's offerings!
