http://www.systemrequirementslab.com - Try this, minimum specs seem to be the following:

CPU Minimum: Pentium 4 or Athlon XP or better

CPU Speed Minimum: 2 GHz

RAM Minimum: 512 MB

Video Card Minimum: 128MB Direct3D compatible video card (NVIDIA GeForce FX 5700 / ATI Radeon 9500

HOLY CRAP my graphics card is outdated. Thank you, you just saved me $25, lol.

They are talking about Radeon 9500, not Radeon HD 9500, which doesn't exist yet, and won't for a bit. Also, I am assuming your card is an HD 3100, in which case you should be able to run the game, you do meet the minimum requirements. I would try to find a demo or something first to make sure you are fine playing at the lowish end of the graphics.

Also before you say anything, video card naming schemes fucking suck dick, I know.

Edit: Here is a quick run down on the ATI naming. It started off adn then it got to 9800 fro like 7000s. Then they started at the 100s again but with an X, so you'd have like an X300. Then when they got towards the end of  the X1000s, they just put an HD in front and kept going from the 2000s and up as Radeon HD 2xxx. Now the latest one they came out with is the HD69xx, and I am genuinely curious what they will do now that they have made a full circle back to the 7000s from way early on.
