Crysis Runs On DX10 Notebooks
Up to this point, DirectX10 cards in DirectX10 benchmarks have performed abysmally. Company of Heroes, Lost Planet, and other DX10 games have all performed at a fraction of the speed that their DX9 counterparts boast. However, this all is about to change, thanks to recent benchmarks from a pre-release version of Crysis. Dignews benchmarked modern DX10 computers, including a Toshiba Satellite notebook with an 8700. And while all of the computers had occasional stutters (which could plausibly be fixed by the time the game is released, considering Crysis is not even in beta yet), all of them also rendered the game in a quality that simply stunned reviewers. The Toshiba Satellite somehow managed to run Crysis with almost all settings maxed out. Please click the source link for the full review.

My old Geforce 6800 could run most of todays games, doesn't mean it's any good does it! :D
If you've seen the in game trailers you'll notice just how dumb the AI is, so much time to aim and shoot you could finish a large burger and still manage to get the kills in time.
I feel for those that don't get it. :shadedshu
In other words, just because its DX10, doesnt mean that ONLY an 8800GTX can play it (unlike lost planet and CoH)
as for comments about the AI seeming a little dumb there showing the game in easy mode as its easier to show off the game that way
