There were lots of games that do this and sell terrible anyway. The whole hype of Crysis was THAT it needed awesome hardware. (and looked better than anything else) But I agree at least Crysis will continue selling for a while.

sadlyEA branded shooters on PC are the only ones that do this the most. BF194, BF2, and Crysis have all pushed PC hardware to the next level or upgrade.

It's not a bad thing that not many companies do this.  I for one am thankful that companies like Valve specifically strive to make their games playable by as many people as possible while achieving their artistic aspirations.
