Unfortunately, the Game Advisor tells me my system isn't fast enough to run the Game Advisor.

Here's my results for Far Cry:

My system's faster than yours, and you might have scored a little higher. WTH?

Just barely... But pwned.

not pwned, it says you can play it.

WTF kind of pro-nVidia drivel is this???

 

If I can't play the latest games at twice the framerate of the recommended specs I consider my PC to suck. It goes without saying my current PC sucks.

WTF?! Your system pwned mine!

Game Advisor will not even run on my PC (2K w/Firefox ). Oh well, I don't really play that many games anymore anyways. Here are my specs just for the fun of it Link

I get the same result.

I owned both Farcry & Game Advisor.

Im closer to the minimum pc then the recommended pc. Thats major ownage!

 

[JeffreyLebowski]

I fail to see how not meeting the unrealistic recommended specs means I was pwned. I'm not going to spend $1000 to play a $50 game.

 

[jst0ney]

Bahhhhhh it requires IE. IE is banned from my system.

My PC is crappier than yours.
