Yeah, I played all those on my old computer which was a similiar build (Only it had less ram and a geforce 2 MX instead of a voodoo3) It would struggle with the highest settings on some of those games (such as Warcraft 3) but they where all playable without even resorting to minimum graphic settings.

I'm not double posting. Really.


Honest.

I have no virus protection either, and haven't needed any for all 6 years. (And I use IE and W98 for god's sake! You would think I would have many viruses)

[Tassadar500]

Well, I have a Mac, so I really don't need virus protection.

If I recall correct, EQ2 says 512 MB/1 GHz minimum. And it's right here, the game will load on a PC with these specification. It doesn't say anything about fun, however.

the game runs terrible on my computer with 512 megs of ram.

I think the problem is with a memory leak with the game though. because when I first load the game, it playes fine. But as I change areas more and more, the game gets slower and slower.

shoddy programming

Yea that's a typical memory leak and the devs know it. It will be fixed, I am very sure. Meanwhile I just camp and reload every 4 or 5 zone switches, annoying as hell, but this way I can keep the slow down at bay.

I don't have any problems with it

Hmm, nasty teething problem.

Anyone have World of Warcraft yet?

[DrSpike]

Try the new WoW thread.

[Skanky Burns]

See - proof that Acronyms are bad (in thread titles).

[Gamecube64]

But WoW is such a good acronym, I mean WoW describes WoW so well.

[DrSpike]

A fact that was not lost on Blizzard, I'm sure.

[Skanky Burns]

A fact not lost on previous games producers, either.
