All of that foliage is sick. The game looks like it will be awsome.. I just wonder how well my machine will play it, the specs seem to be a little high.:(

Dare I ask...What are the system requirements...
(I have a feeling I'll be saving up money to upgrade my PC, alot, before I get the game...:()

I heard at one time that it had to be a minimum of 1.8GHz Processor, but I havent seen anything specific yet. Check this out though.. I dont know how accurate this is.

Nah, not yet.

I've never preordered anything.


Might do so with this game though.

I'll just swing by EB once it's out. Right nearby for me.

[Cypher_138]

Looks awesome.:D I seriously suck at flying the choppers though. Looks like I'll need to learn.

Yeah, get this. They've got a Funcoland, and a Gamestop where I live within 1,000ft of eachother.:rotfl: They are owned by the same company and are the exact same store. Both are easily within walking distance less than 1/4 mile away.


There is also an EB in the mall that isn't far away either.
