Yes! This indicates that the March release dates are true.

Dissappointed with the recommended specs.. Will a ATI X800 be able to play it at full graphics or will it still be gimped? I think they should have tailored it for a card that's been out longer. I'm tempted to wait 6 mos or so to get it so I can get a even better card than an X800. If I got an X800 right now I could at least play Morrowind maxxed out. Anyways.. Seems stupid on their part. I can wait till it's in the bargain bin then build a fast computer and play it like it's supposed to be played. |

A nice triple post there!
Anyhow I'm not in a hurry for upgrading my pc. I will just wait till its released and then buy some hefty hardware with cheaper price _________________ The focused mind can pierce through stone |

Mamma-mia. I might pick up another gig of RAM just to be sure...
I guess it could have been worse. Although not much worse! _________________ Charlie Dobbie

Don't be afraid, I would say they are just not telling true.
Look at my specs above. Yeh, I cannot use AA, yet I could play every game till now. Currently I'm running through DS2 with 1600*1200 and all maxed out. That just proves the fact that nearly every game is playable on lower than min specs. computer with much higher than medium settings :]. They just want people to go out and pay for new hardware. |

I have a Nvidia 6800, an Athlon 3500 + and 1 Gig of RAM. I like to play at 1024x768 with at least x2 AA. I am very fussy about frame rates though. Will that cut it d'you think? |

Right at this moment, I'm afraid no one can say.
For what it's worth, I've got much the same setup, and am only intending to get another gig of RAM - I'm working on the assumption that the rest will be okay. _________________ Charlie Dobbie

Everytime I see "The way it's meant to be played" at the begining of a some game, I always wonder what the deal behind this is about.
Is it just that NVidia (or ATI) likes games and gamers? :] |
