mein gott...

did you SEE those requirements?
I will have to complete the new computer I am working on before ever opening the box! I now feel like those FPS gamers who were foaming at the mouth for the release of Doom 3 only to be told that their state of the art computer was utter shyte before the requirements of their new digital gods. I have to get brand new everything then - starting with the graphics card (and I am using a 6600 NVidia at the moment I believe...) I just hope my final generation AMD chip will be able to keep up, as I won't be spending $300 on just a CPU to play ONE bloody game. I knew already I was going to need around 2GB worth of RAM for my computer just for my own purposes, but to be TOLD a game will need all of that just for itself? That's bleedin' insane! ATARI will get sued for emotional damages if this game sucks donkey doughnuts, you realize that, eh?
