A GeForce 9800 isn't good enough? :O

I hope this doesn't have nasty DRM...

Nah, a 9800 will be enough

.
A 8600, maybe less, depending on the visual quality you're looking for.

EA would never do that. They're saints.

Finally, a burnout game for PC.

I've been waiting for this. I hope it runs in my lousy laptop.
*fingers crossed*

Thanakil · 6 Days Ago

Is your laptop the hardware listed in your sig?
If yes, I wouldn't hold my breath too much =/.

V1ncent · 6 Days Ago

Nah, I was just joking. There is no chance that game boots in my laptop. But, my laptop isn't that bad. Ps2 games run at 5 FPS.

Ok, its very bad

But you know I sell some, too... and I'm not trying to hurt anyone? I'm just trying to show you what I have to sell...

Anyway, back to the topic at hand, I believe... that if this is yet another XBox360 port, we are going to have a hell of a time with nVidia cards... whereas ATI cards will run the game without breaking a sweat.

Nooooooooooo

I want fast crashes.

Good news, I may actually like the game, though usually I just want to drive, I don't like the exaggerated way of taking out others while they respawn instantly. I don't like the way the cars control either, so Samor, I hope you don't uninstall TDU because of it. Btw, I may be upgrading my PC in the next 2 weeks, so I'll be able to play that one again. Just have to decide my GPU plan: Buying an 8800GT/3870 now, or getting something very basic to get an HD4850 later

Samor · 6 Days Ago

TDU is still on there, and I'm still playing it as frequent/infrequent as before

Ah, Criterion Games. Famous, not for Black or Burnout, but for their "**** PC" remarks.
