Indeed, but people need something to look up to as well. It can be a very good advertisement strategy to show what the engine can do, why it stands above the competition, and why this simulation will be a good investment for years to come. So some max quality video's should be produced.
I was blown away by the graphics of Crysis when I first read about it in a magazine 5 years ago. I needed to have it! When I bought it, I knew my hardware wasn't up to the task but I played it anyway. It was really ugly at the time. So I built me a new PC. The only problem with a linear game like Crysis is that it looses it's appeal once you've completed it. CoD and IL2 don't have that problem. And I had sub-standard hardware for both IL2 and Forgotten Battles when I bought them as well.
