    Because Crysis ran out of the box on min spec hardware of the era and no meme ever came out of a system being able to run the game.

      It came out 19 years ago. Guy is probably too young to know of a time when hitting 30 fps with most options turned down was considered a win.

        Bitch I’m older than Doom.

        I’m from the era where games companies had to fit a game onto a physical disc, and they would give out multiple entire map packs with magazines for free.

        Back when developers actually made games instead of relying on AI slop filters or ray tracing to do their job for them.

        Or just pumping out the same game year after year with a new number after the title.

          See I didn’t feel old the first time, but saying older than doom like it’s a record now makes me feel like grandpa Simpson.
