Some people found out that you can just change the config files of crysis to get the same visuals with XP (but even faster) compared to the DX10 version under vista. So is the DX10 version just a fake?

"So Crytek basically greyed out the very high options under XP, simply because they and their buddies in the industry want us to buy the worthless resource hog that Vista is and the overpriced 8800GTXs. This move on their part is absolutely disgusting. Nothing new of course, but it hurts to see it coming from someone you respected."
