I always include the System Requirements as part of what I include when I create a "Read me first". I will have to re-read Pacifien's version again, I suppose.
(Edited in about 20 minutes later: she did have a simplified copy of the requirements included, which omitted the very last, telling sentence, about Intel and S3 IGPs.)Intel is not a 3D game company and doesn't care whether their video will work for a game such as this one. It is purely up to the prospective buyers for various computing systems to recognize Intel's ineptitude, hypocrisy, and general unethical behavior, and make better choices in the marketplace to put them out of business, or at least to so educate themselves to avoid Intel's crap until they become more user oriented and less avaricious.
Only AMD and nVIDIA produce game-capable 3D graphics cards, and only standard desktop style PCs allow easy graphics upgrades.
PC MINIMUM System Requirements
OS = Windows XP SP3 / Windows Vista SP1 / Windows 7
Processor = 1.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or equivalent AMD CPU
Memory = 1 GB RAM for Windows XP / 2 GB RAM for Windows Vista and Windows 7
Hard Drive = 15 GB
DVD ROM = 1x Speed
Sound Card = DirectX 9.0c compatible
Direct X = DirectX 9.0c August 2008 (included)
Input = Keyboard / Mouse
Video Card[/i] = 256 MB (with Pixel Shader 3.0 support). Supported GPU Chips: NVIDIA GeForce 6800 or greater(**); ATI Radeon X1600 Pro or greater. Please note that NVIDIA GeForce G.205, G.210, 310, 7100, 7200, 7300, 7400, 7500, 8100, 8200, 8300, 8400, 9100, 9200, and 9300; ATI Radeon X1300, X1550, HD 2400, 3100, 3200, HD 3450, HD 3470, HD 4200, HD 4250, HD 4350, and (probably) HD 5450 are below minimum system requirements. Updates to your video and sound card drivers may be required. [i]Intel and S3 video devices are
not officially supported in Mass Effect 2.
(**)Two of the Geforce 6800s are worse than the next-lower Geforce game card, the 6600 GT, and should be avoided (6800 SE, 6800 XT).
