New game lads

[Ritz_Crackers]

Lads, been playing this game for a few days now, and I must say it seems to be quite good. It's basically a strategy game like CnC, the only difference is that it's set in real world maps like USA and Europe and so forth.

But the main gameplay is set in the USA when Russia attacks and you have to defend USA. It uses fairly modern-ish technologies (1988 opnwards techs) so it's weaponary is failr good. You can also use superweapons like nukes and stuff.

Here's the link.

2GHZ CPU
128MB GFX (min) 256MB (recommended) Geforce MX cards not supported, Radeon 8series and 9series not supported.
9GB install

It's £27 from HMV.

What you lot think?

Riz, what type of graphics card does your mobo take? Is it AGP or PCi-E?

If it's the latter, I can give you a mid range graphics card. It's just lying in my closet collecting dust. At least that way you'll be able to play CSS without any lag and some other games aswell, by just overclocking the card a little bit.

Does this game work best on dual core?

Nah I played it on my younger bro's PC and his ones just a single core AMD 64 FX-57. It plays fine on that one.

But having a dual core machine does have it's advantages on gameplay, that little bit faster.

That's bullshit!

I used to have a DELL PC backin the days and I upgraded my graphics card on that one.

The only reason that you wouldn't be able to upgrade would be cos of the form factor of the case. If it's a small one then for obvious reasons you can't do anything to it, but if it's a tower then yeah course you can upgrade it.
