For Windows VISTA

· 2.5 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
· 2 Gigabyte RAM
· A 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
· At least 15 GB of hard drive space

I'm screwed.

moses6501d ago

But I'm not! ;D

I have
-3.5ghz E8400(plan to take it to 4ghz)
-2GB DDR2 1066
-1GB Super super clocked GTX280
-500GB space!

I hope this game doesn't have the gigantic lags in populated places like Age of Conan :(.

Moses - I highly doubt your system will have the troubles it does on Age of Conan. Aside from being an incomplete, buggy, and uninspired mess, AoC runs choppy in many areas on just about every system, if not every, in existence.

That said, Warhammer is going to run amazing on your computer and mine, simply because the graphics engine is almost as dated as WoW's, which just means it's more accessable to more people.

2.4 ghz Core 2 Duo
4 gigs of ram
7900 GT 512mb
1.7 Tera of free Hd space
XP 64

I should be fine. These specs are good for mass appeal, not as accessible as wow but good nonetheless. I`m really looking forward to trying this one. aNd yeah, Age is crap, interesting crap, but still crap imho. I still got 15 days left on my trial and doupt I`ll use it up.

Ashta6501d ago

I got all that stuff and more in regards to GPU and RAM but I'm kinda worried about my processor. All I got is a 2.8Ghz P4 and I can run WoW just fine, but I just hope that the damn thing isn't processor dependant so I don't run in to bottlenecks.

Also, 15GB of HDD used?!?! Good lord! I'm gonna have to do some serious deleting to get that to fit.

Lilbambit6501d ago

is this game gonna utilize multiple cores at all? bloody hope so, got a quad core

jaja14346501d ago

Duel maybe, but nothing and I mean nothing uses a quad...referring to games of course. Which is also why they are pretty much a waste of money at present time.

Azurite6501d ago

There are games that support more cores but they still perform better with just dual cores that usually got higher clock rates.

weird ... whatever.

Is this the next WoW killer?

lulz

Keep lining'em up - only to get knocked down.

I hope this one is good. Im a little nervous about EA being the publisher however.

Montrealien6501d ago

Where you a naughty boy and call someone a bad name in the Gamerzone? An Idiot, a loser or anything like that? You previous comment was deleted, I bet you hurt someones feelings...lol

I still miss City of Heroes.

I agree when it comes to The Sims Online. That game was really fun and nothing has even come close to it. I still crave a new Sims with online multiplayer. Blows my mind they haven't done anything like that since The Sims Online or even The Sims Bustin' Out on PS2.

Five Ambitious MMOs That Never Took Off

Kevin from Denkiphile: "The first I’d ever heard of Titan was at the height of my World of Warcraft career, which was also the same time that several games, touted as WoW-killers, came onto the market and failed miserably. It made sense to me at the time that the only thing that could kill WoW was Blizzard themselves, but this also eventually changed with the advent of session-based, microtransaction-supported games like League of Legends. Titan was supposed to revolutionize and revitalize the MMO genre, but it certainly was not the first to crash and burn before its first flight. Here are some MMOs whose ambitions flew them too close to the sun."

12 Dead Online Video Games That Should Never Have Ended

The closing of multiplayer services can happen for a number of reasons. Sometimes there just aren’t enough people using a product to justify keeping it running while in others it could be down to complicated legal wrangling, like expiring licensing agreements, or even a desire to bring out a new installment.

One thing is clear though – many of these discontinued games simply don’t deserve to die, to be cut down in their prime leaving players without a viable alternative and waste all that time the audience invested in them. With that in mind, this article will count down the 12 games least deserving of being shut down, the ones that players the world over wished had kept going.
