Yes.

Your machine should run it fine. I was running it on similar spec, but with a Radeon 8500 card, which is nowhere near as good as your card. I had to turn the resolution down a little, but it still played really well.

It is a fantastic game.

It should work.

BTW: The PS2 to USB converter is the best $5 i ever spent at RadioShack. Def worth it!

yes have to agree with ya there still waiting for nfs but this ps2-usb converter is great with me ps2 pad and has completley got me hooked on pro evo 3

instead of people posting these types of questions - why dont they just go to the home site for the game to check min and rec specs..... or ANY site that sells games for that matter? it takes 2 minutes as opposed to waiting for a reply from someone........

...Because this is a Forum for people to chat about games in the real world!!!

The manufactures can only tell u so much, they can't test every setup.

...Its far better to ask around IMO.

Besides I reckon they lie about the min specs to sell more games... Often the recommended specs to.

I mean some of these games, there is no way that they would be playable with the min specs.

I agree 100%. Sorry Nickisixx but if you spend any time playing games on computers then you know that the minimum specs that they post are BS. I can't tell you how many games I had issues with because my PC was either just at or just above the minimum specs posted on the box. You are going to get a more accurate picture by posting the game and the specs of your machine and asking people's experiences than by having money grubbing videogame companies posting specs. You could say it is a conspiracy between the gaming industry and those who manufacter computer parts. People buy the game, the game doesn't work (even though it meets the minimum specs), then they buy upgrades for thier machine so they can play the game. This is one of the reasons why I don't really do gaming on my PC anymore.
