So does that $4,000 one spends on such a system improve the gameplay of Crysis? Is it the greatest game of all time now because of it or what? I dont understand the point. Maybe there isn't one.

If you want to drive slow, great. Stick in the right lane. Everyone else use the left lane ONLY for passing. This ...
