Do not get GTA IV unless you have a godly computer

[H! Vltg3]

I couldn't agree more with out guys. I played GTA 4 on my old rig and I put it on medium settings and it would lag at times, and lag a lot during traffic and when it rained in-game, my rig was dual core 2ghz, 2 gigs of ram, and a 8800gts. But I got a new rig recently and I can max out the settings perfectly with little lag. Heres the stats to my new rig:

Intel Quad-Core 3.4GHZ (Overclocked from 3.2)
8 gigs of DDR3 1800 RAM
2x nvidia GTX 295
velociraptor 10,000 RPM harddrive



this rig will last me awhile, haha.

I agree with this.

I found the same thing with red alert 3, my computer is way above the requirements and it chugs.... It takes 10g's to install.... like how do they make these games fit 1 dvd for xbox and run smoothly? what is the problem with computer games....

it's weird because i donwloaded the demo and it was fine.
