| 384933 | 2005-08-31 05:13:00 | FPS gamers rejoice/get ready to upgrade! I have played through the demo of this quite a few times - excellent graphics, physics and sound. The game is heavily system intensive - both CPU/RAM and VPU get a good thrash... It's got some jumps but nowhere near as terrifying as Doom3 at this stage... but it is only a demo :) I think on final release this game will put the likes of HL2 and Doom3 to shame - play the demo and you'll know what I'm talking about... It's due out around mid October. Demo download is around 660MB - 56k beware! :) |

| 384934 | 2005-09-01 10:46:00 | What system specs would you recommend to play this game well. | memphis (2869) | ||
| 384935 | 2005-09-01 11:22:00 | In order to play the game at the recommended resolution, detail and performance levels, your computer should meet or exceed the following specifications: US version of Windows(R) XP with the latest service pack installed Pentium(R) 4 3.0 GHz or equivalent 2GB of RAM 256MB DirectX(R) 9.0 video card with pixel shader 2.0 suppor Like I said - very system intensive - It's playable with low end hardware though - lots of scaling options. I think minimum specs was: P4 1.7GHz, 512MB, 64MB DX8.1 video card... low quality looks really bad though... Give it a go - it would be interesting to get some feedback on performance from a wide range of systems... |

| 384938 | 2005-09-01 11:42:00 | Bah! Gimme C&C: Red Alert, FreeSpace 2, Monkey Island 3 and Thief1,2,3 and I'll be sweet :rolleyes: | bob_doe_nz (92) | ||
| 384939 | 2005-09-01 11:45:00 | Yes - they are all good games too :) | HadO (796) | ||
| 384940 | 2005-09-02 10:59:00 | Wow thats some sys specs :thumbs: Quote: In order to play the game at the recommended resolution, detail and performance levels, your computer should meet or exceed the following specifications: US version of Windows(R) XP with the latest service pack installed Pentium(R) 4 3.0 GHz or equivalent 2GB of RAM 256MB DirectX(R) 9.0 video card with pixel shader 2.0 suppor That would like max out a computer of today for most people and spending so much on upgrades to play the game well, plus buying the game would work out to be very expensive to play one game. Mind you all your other games of lower specs would play great. :D Or buy it when its in the bargin bin and by then I may have had to upgrade because of other games and things as well. I might just not buy that game and save a heck of a lot of money instead. I have to live and thus pay for things that demand more from me like petrol..... :thumbs: |

| 384941 | 2005-09-02 11:04:00 | Yeah seems to be a bit ahead of its time but I guess its a "next gen" title and like I said it plays good enough for me (on mid range system) with medium settings (+AA) and still looks amazing... I predict the upcoming STALKER will probably have similar requirements... Hard life for PC gamers that's for sure :lol: |

| 384942 | 2005-09-02 12:02:00 | I must save some money for my computer x 2000 lines. ;) I must get STALKER x 10,000 lines. I must live and pay bills x 100,000 lines. :dogeye: Yes a gamers life is a hard life,but its a good life!!! :thumbs: |
