CRYTEK the makers of Crysis are about to release a new stand alone Crysis game. When they do release it, they will release a patch for the original Crysis making the engine more efficient. This patch can make Crysis work fine on a 600$ machine. The game is probably going to be 20$ anyway very soon.

BTW Farcry 2 is on a different engine (not CryEngine 2 which Crysis used. CRYTEK unfortunately does not have the rights to Far Cry anymore), a in-house Ubisoft engine, Dunia to be exact, so it may or may not run better. It is also being developed by Ubisoft Montreal who made Assassins Creed, so if your comp can't run Assassins Creed very well, chances are you will not be able to run Far Cry 2 very well. Both games will have used different engines, but the dev's and their coding will be close to the same.
