    The demo versions of M2TW even worked on my laptop, which has a 64 MB Graphics card. But of course the performance wasn´t overwhelming.

    does anyone know if intel gma950 will work with the game? That's the integrated graphics on my laptop. The latest demo would freeze upon starting the battle. Would the real game be better? I would like to play this game while I am on the road.

    I sincerely doubt that if the demo didn't work for you, the gold version will...

    I can say quite definitely that a GeForceFX 5200 will make the battles run like a slideshow, even with all other aspects being more than adeqaute.

    OMG - another identical thread minimum specs threads are very common and there's a whole thread dedicated to "will my PC run M2TW".

    Please use the search functions (or even something as drastic as looking a few lines down the main) to save us all writing out the same info many times

    Isn't it funny how people trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell?

    Can someone post a link to the demo so I could download it? I just want to test my computer to see if it will work before getting it.

    Yeah, the 11 Gig thing is pretty huge. No problem for me though. I have a 200 Gig hard drive and I have over 100 gigs free.

    Not necessarily, Dutch_guy. I have tried the pre-release demo of Painkiller and it refused to run on my computer (despite the latest drivers). I forgot about the game, until my brother bought the game and I managed to snatch it from his care. The full game ran fine. Weird world we live in.

    So, decoucy, if you are able to rent the game or borrow it from a friend for a day, do that and see if the game works. You never know.
