I guess they have to do that b/c the file is so big? I have to wait 40 minutes before I can even start downloading, seems dumb. Excited to test it out though, hope my CPU can handle it.

Well apparently my brand new laptop can't run this game. Was moving soooo slow. Only thing I can think of as a problem is that my dual core processor is only 2.1 ghz and the minimum requirements for vista says 2.8 ghz single core. Would that cause it to move very slowly? Guess I won't be getting this game for PC...

I doubt it's your CPU. Your GPU is the probably culprit. What kinda GPU does the laptop have ?

My dual core is a 2.1 also. I have a 9650m gt GPU and 4gb ram and it runs on max (screen res 1200x800) for me.

As MLB says your GPU could and probably will be your problem.

Yea the more I thought about it I figured it was my graphics card (I think that is the GPU). I have a mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset, whatever that is, and I have the latest drivers. I also installed the latest Direct X. I have plenty of ram and memory and all of that.

Thanks for the help.

Says I'm #61 out of 87 with 31 minutes left to wait. I just went with the region that had the lowest estimated wait time though.

Still interested to try it out. I may still get the PC version later if they can iron out some of the bugs and some good mods are created. The 360 version isn't really doing it for me.
