    I think that should run it fine one decent settings. I wouldn't know about the highest settings, but I'd imagine since you have a good graphics card (even though not DX10) you'll get a great experience.

    Yeah, it's so cool that I am tempted to get a PS3 for it. Only for it. (I'm not really willing to run Windows though ;) )

    Nothing at the moment. There isn't much you can really do...you seem to have a great GPU and processor...2GB of memory is great as well.

    If you want to run games like this, buy an xbox 360 :p you'll never have to ask the question.

    The XBOX 360 is static...it's graphics will never change.
    A PCs...well, a lot of desktops (and even a few notebooks) are upgradeable. And the technology will always get better with time.

    again this goes back to the "console vs pc" debate

    like i could counter your argument saying that yes you are right, but upgrading and stuff is a lot more expensive than a console

    I'm wondering on how the PC will handle NPCs being there's so many in the presentations :) But if it can work on PS3 or Xbox 360 it shouldn't have a problem.

    1) Orange Box
    2) Crysis
    3)Gears of War
    4)UNiverse at war
    5) Lol I guess it does fall into my top 5, counted orange box as more than one game and I guess project origin doesn't count since its not coming out any time soon

    Too bad the PC version isn't released until next year. But on the other end, there's plenty of other games coming out soon to keep us entertained.
