Well as far as console vs PC "specs" go, you know, on the PC you have to run a fully-fledged OS along side with the game. So, that would take slightly more juice.

8800GT can run console graphics at 60fps in multi platform games...

The percentage of PC users who play Crysis already take that into mind. Doesn't take that much to answer your question, you could ALMOST say that the OS is idling. Except Vista... :P

Have you misunderstood what I said or did you want to quote someone else?

My dual core laptop plays crysis 1 on medium settings and a crappy graphics card with 40+ FPS.
Min specs means nothing, i'd like to see recommended specs or/and how will the game hit the hardware maxed out :)
Hope you guys used dx11!!!

To be honest, those minimum requirements are pretty high. Especially on the graphics side. If it starts with an 8800GT at 512MB, the recommended is probably going to be a GTX480, or even a GTX580 if nVidia really bribed Crytek.
Good thing it doesn't seem to stress too much on the CPU though, only requires a laptop CPU.

It will always be about the graphical power for Crysis 2, the rest of it. Our Pc's/Laptop's can handle :)

Good to know the mins at least although I am confused that they are higher than the mins for Crysis despite Crytek saying the game would run better than Crysis. Plus the fact that these mins are better than console specs :?
On the other side of the coin you could say it's good that the minimums are 'relatively' high - that would suggest the game is going to be able to test higher spec systems. Meaning stunning graphics, audio & physics - unless the engine is really badly optimised :D

The reason why they're 'higher' is because they're being honest about what constitutes a good baseline system, this setup will likely get you medium at a half decent resolution. Also, back in 2007 they couldn't say:
Minimum req: The best stuff out there.
They look about the same real requirements as the original.
