Well, Can You Run It came back to life, I find it odd how it says this about my video card, yet I don't meet the minimum requirements ONLY because of my video card. And yet, mine seems better than the required.

I wouldn't rely on Can You Run It at all. It's been garbage to me since day 1. It says I can run Crysis Warhead on recommended, I bought it, and I can barely run it on everything minimum.

That's why I'm upgrading w/ christmas money.

Anyway, I'd definitely buy it if I were you in case you ever consider upgrading in the future as it's an amazing game. However, if you can run it right now I will be awestruck because I guess I had the same computer as you and I COULDN'T :(

No...
I'm not planning an upgrade any time soon. Damn. Oh well. I guess I can't get Oblivion.

Yes you can run Oblivion because I run it on my stuffty 256mb intel card no lag :D this is the answer : Oldblivion.

I would think that portal 2 is more graphics intensive than oblivion, but since Messes says he couldn't run it with the same stuff I don't know.

You could try this out, but once again if it still doesn't work then you just bought it for nothing :/

You could still run it on low, try editing the .ini file within your program files.

I don't think I'm even going to risk getting Oblivion so that I can run Oldblivion.
I'll just play more M&B.

Oldblivion didn't work when I tried it.

I just noticed its on sale right now
I'd say it's worth buying it since its only 5 bucks

I have a mobile intel card, and it's worse than yours. I also only have 2GB RAM. I can run it on nerfed settings.

I figure because it's such an epic game it's worth a try wile it's on sale.
But I such a wuss!
Oh well. I've got 14 hours to decide.

definitely get it, it's only 5 dollars. so not much would be lost if you can't run it.



Steam should get a built in can you run it type thing, it would be very helpful.

My laptop has that card and it can run it, medium low with high textures.
