At least they are not doing just a port to PC which is disaster in terms of performance.

They are adding DX10 and DX11 support, and rewriting the engine for PC. With optimisations and better graphics coming in retail version.
I know rite.

But it still won't work on my humble laptop

Just checked the system requirements and my CPU meets the absolute minimum specs and so does everything else, except for my graphics.

yeah, only there is 5 years difference, gamers ususally upgrade their PC's about 3-4 years max. It would look like shit to rest of the ppl if it ran well on that kinda hardware.

It's the res I use when 1600x1200 is too much. Gotta love CRT's. Also 5:4 1280x1024 is a lot more wtf-worthy than standard 4:3

I'll have to fiddle around with settings. Some people said DX9 gives up to 50% increase but it didn't seem to change much for me

my [email protected] with 8800GTS 512MB gets about 30 fps with everything on low, DX9 @ 1440x900 TBH I don't notice a difference between most of the different resolution options in game.
