Whats your laptops specifications? |
Honestly I always forget off the top of my head. I know from that above website it said I could run Oblivion fine (about halfway between the minimum and maximum) but I was a pretty decent ways below the minimum bar on Age of Conan. It's a Dell XPS so it's made for gaming and it is a pretty awesome laptop because I could have whatever editor I was working in, Photoshop, 3DSMax, iTunes, and Firefox all open and working at the same time while having two monitors at pretty high resolution. I suppose the most upsetting thing about this is the fact that knowing I can't run this I probably won't be able to run Starcraft II and I'm not going to buy a new computer or laptop for a single game. ;_; |
Yeah I had a look at the requirements of both and I see your point. The requirements aren't huge but then again laptops aren't known for generous GPU alotments. If you knew the model number I would look it up for you. You could A. Download the demo and see if it works acceptably, you look like you have more than the minimum. If A doesn't work then you could consider B. Since you'd need to justify the expense reasonably, then perhaps you could consider a HTPC/Cheap gaming machine. If thats unaceptable you could do C. C. Since its meant to come out on the Xbox360 anyway and you have one you could just wait. |
The laptop I have is a gaming laptop (and we actually used them for game development) so it was at one point plenty beefy. The video card I know though was way under what AoC needs, I think I had a 6800 in there. and I won't play the game on the 360 because 1) I require mouse and keyboard and 2) then I would have to play on the TV for hours at a time and the fiance wouldn't like that much. :-p |
Haha yea, but since the demo is free and you can trial it out, why not have a lookie? Sometimes those sites get it wrong.
