Ehhhh, I dont know were you found that part about the "PC hardare market in Europe" but, I live in Europe, and I havn't seen a single thing change in the hardware market, except that we get new technology, and peaople buy it. I live in Norway, and I had a powerful gaming PC about 6 moths, then I switched to a Asus G74JH for about 6 months ago.
So atleast for me, I would prefered a High-End game again, but also Crysis 1 is like the best looking game still.
But I still would have had a new game which set the standards in high graphics for another 4 years.
The point I was making is that more folks are unemployed since the release of the original Crysis, and the employment situation is worse in the EU than in the US (except in the EU public sector).
And further, are you comparing the Crysis of today (after three patches) with the Launch Day Crysis 2, or are you comparing LD Crysis and LD Crysis 2? (I seriously doubt the latter, as on the day of launch Crysis did NOT have a working x64 patch - in fact, the first patch for the original didn't fix that issue.)
Lastly, I did point out that Crysis 2 is not about high-end gaming PCs (for once), as the original Crysis was; after all, what the heck does Crytek have to prove by repeating themselves?
