This game has crazy requirements, check out this article I just read.

Electronic Arts announced the minimum system requirements for Crysis on Tuesday, a standard that is double that of other high-profile PC games.
According to developer Crytek and EA, your gaming rig will need at least a 2.8 GHz single core processor, 1GB RAM, 256MB NVIDIA or ATI graphics chip, and 12GB of hard drive space to even think about playing the game -- something they say computers up to 2-3 years old already have. Recommended system requirements for the game are twice those numbers.
By comparison, the recently released and graphically-praised Bioshock required a slightly slower processor and equal amount of RAM, but half of the graphics memory at only 128MB to run the shooter on minimal settings. Midway's upcoming Unreal Tournament III will require even less technology, yet it still features an impressive amount of eye candy.
Notice the 12GB of hard drive space. That is simply insane. I remember back when I got my first computer and thought the 2GB hard drive was massive, 12 years later it's nothing.
