Heh... I'm not saying that it's high. It's just that the requirements keeps getting higher and higher as each new game is produced.. Maybe it's because of 21st Century 's Technologies, hehe...

I couldn't care less about M.R.
Minimum requirements = the minimum PC specs you need to run the game
Obviously this hasnt nothing to do with how fast the game runs: resolutions, graphic details, fps, etc.

Couldnt agree more, some full games are not even 1 gig in size. If the demo is that big, EA has to do a serious optimization and programming overhaul.

I was barely running NFS:HP2 on a 7000. I'd say your chances are slim to nil.

I really can't believe that the game has that kind of minimum requirements. Last time I checked, NFSU2 raped my computer especially when having enhanced contrast on.

In the videos the M3 GTR looked like it handles like a Supra, A.K.A a brick.
But I'm going to get it anyway, hopefully they will show more than that bodykit for it.
Seems like this website is a ghost town. No longer worth a visit or anyone's time.
