Thanks for the fast relpy guys!

I wont be playing at a high resolution because my monitor broke so i'm using this emachines one with max resolution of 1024x768 lol.

My specs are:
AMD Athlon 250 II x2 3.0ghz (OC 3.7ghz)
2GB DDR2 1033
Ati HD 4870 1GB GDDR5 256-bit
3TB HD
Msi K9N6PGM2-V2(FOR EUP v2.2

i would like to play it on high, who wouldn't lol? but low-medium will do untill i get upgrades.

thanks

I don't want to pay out £100-300 on new parts when i can just play in on my ps3 so no point, if it doesn't play ill be happy on the PlayStation.

just for the record my pc isn't the best but there isn't a game i have played what i cant run on high-ultra even the notorious Gta iv on high 25-40 fps without any lag!

i was thinking of a hd5770 that's all im going to upgrade, no single games is worth hundreds of £'s in upgrades

thanks
