What is the word on the next game? - Page 2

If you are on a tight budget and don't mind reusing some of your computer parts (i.e. case, hard drive, cdrom and floppy drive), you are looking at less than £100 or $150.

Buy a nice cheap integrated motherboard - onboard sound/graphics ($60).
256mb 2100 RAM ($45).
AMD Duron 1100 ($37.50)
Processor fan ($7.50).

Should be a fairly decent system, especially for the money.

Viva SoA!!! (Just to keep this on topic

pritchke, you can play Icewind Dale II.

I have a pentium II 333 mhz and I can play just fine. It's using the same engine as BG II and I.

This project Jefferson whatsit sounds promising. I've looked at the website, but does anyone know anymore details?

OK, Thanks Luvian.

I think I will wait a four or five months before buying another game but that one will be on my list. I had gotten through Throne of Bhaal on the weekend and went on to play W&W again. After that I might play Throne of Bhaal again. Great Ending!

Btw in the Neverwinter Nights Manual it says that the minimum requirements is 300mhz. Although if I were you I wouldnt buy NWN. It will run very poorly and will probably be unplayable when more than two monsters show up on the screen.
I had a pentium II 400 mhz for 5 years until I upgraded it a couple of months ago. So I know the feel of not being able to play the newest games out there.
A possible solution could be to uppgrade your computer which is much much cheaper than buying a new one(which is what I did)
But of course thats all up to you.

The minimum requirements for NWN are wildly optimistic. Hi, Micah!

Just had a peek at the new game WOW looks good. I love the historical tie in, it gives it more feel / reality.
