FFVIII was a bitch to set up because it was a very, very shoddy optimization work. FFVII was better in that aspect. No one tops Blizzard when it comes to PC optimization, heck I can play WCI and Starcraft without having to resort to DOSBOX to play them, which is becoming increasingly rare these days for old school PC games.

@bolded That's awesome, I didn't realize you could still play WC1 on the modern windows systems :)

On requirements topic, here are the SCII requirements. It can play on a PIV with 128 MB ram in the GPU. That's pretty generous.

I have hopes that if someone is willing to sacrifice on effects a little, they could probably go far with a last gen Core 2 duo (which are like 200$ used nowadays). If they want the full DIII experience though :B They'll need more like an i5 with a reasonably good graphics card at least. I think mine is overkill cause i have a geforce 460 lol. My i3 is a bit of a bottleneck though.

I think on SCII what you sacrifice the most is the actual physic effects rather than visual impact, when you put the graphical fidelity on low. My 800€ laptop eats up SCII on Ultra at 60FPS constantly, no matter how many units there are on screen (i7 with a HD6770M), so Diablo III is probably max setting for me too, but as you say, even entry level dual cores and GPUs will be able to play DiabloIII, especially since I see it having less or equal requirements to SCII.
