Post - Can u play this game?


Well,it was just yersterday when i brought a new PC game.I installed it happily and then restarted my PC.Just was going to run it...BUT...sadness ran all over my face.I got an error that my PC cannot support the game.I had to buy a new Graphics Card and more 512mb ram.
I thought that isnt there any tool that checks whether my PC can play that game or not so that my money dont get spent off and the game doesnt runs too.
I was searching the internet and then i found this website:
www.systemrequirementslab.com

You just have to choose a game and then the website will analyze your PC whether it can run the game or not.

Its better to check first if it can run or not than to spend money uselessly.

That sound cool. How much times did I have the problem of buying a game and then returning it to the store because my computer can't run it.

On the other hand, with my computer, I can answer the question myself, it can't run anything, Dam Intel Mobile Graphics Card.

Yeah thanks for the link, Deviatore.

This should save some of us trips to the gamer stores.

It's been a long time since I loaded a new game on my computer.

It is very cool to hear. How many problems, while buying these PC games. It would be a essential one for the people who are more interested in PC games, for example like me.

Thanks! This is a great site. I usually know my ram and hard drive so when I get to the store I can look at requirements. I did buy one once that would not work because I did not have enough video ram.Bummer! Had to take it back and say it did not work at all . Otherwise they would not give a refund. Stores do not like taking back software after it has been opened.
