Just to clear it up. It will work.. but just not as smoothly. What do you mean by high graphics? Should i put it to low quality.. so it runs better?

I wish i had a computer like that, i might not even get the game now. Yesterday my good "main" computer broke and now i have to use my crappy old back-up computer.

I keep getting different answers.

It will work smoothly. It will not work smoothly. Should i upgrade my chips?

You have time to get your computer fixed. It doesn't come out for 8 more days. But i guarantee you. That it will be of the shelves in a matter of hours. Pre-ordering is the best way to go. I am buying my online to avoid that.

Good Luck!

Personally, I'm not really sure it will run smooth (since both the Intel GMA 3100 graphics chip and the Intel Celeron are not very good for gaming). At the very least, don't count on high detail settings. But you're definitely above the minimum requirements.

I did it and it said:

Sorry mate. You won't be able to play it.

Well, Maybe you can but the chances are it will be very choppy and slow.

Almost next week for UK! Monday in 19mins!

SalemHellKat · 24-05-2009, 11:45 PM

Do you guys think that i should buy the game when there is a big chance that the game will not work on my computer and a slight chance that it will work but as well and an even slighter chance that it will work smoothly.

george9807 · 25-05-2009, 12:10 AM
