I'm not totally sure that the diversification of video games is to blame. For every Duke Nukem, DOOM, and Quake, there where equally popular and less taxing games like SimCity and RollerCoaster Tycoon that have been players in the gaming world that did not push hardware forward.
Additionally, I very much take issue with your statement that Crysis, a game released in 2007 is still the "standard" for graphics intensive games.
The games that are pushing the bounds of PC hardware are games like [1]The Witcher 2, games which are huge improvements on [2]Crysis.
