Silly requirements of GH3 for PC

TheWetMule · 12-11-2007, 07:03 PM

Bah, I do say, they're rather fucking appalling, WoW runs on about half the requirements GH3 needs, I can't be arsed upgrading my brothers PC for him to play it, so we're stuck with a dead game for a while..

Minimum Requirements:

Intel Pentium D (DUal) 2.8ghz or AMD Athlon 64 3500+
1gb of RAM on XP, 2GB on Vista
ATI Radeon x800 or Nvidia 7600

I'm sorry, but isn't that a TAD excessive for the way the game looks? My brothers computer meets all of the specs, except he has an Nvidia 7300, this doesn't allow him to play at all, he attempts to load it up and it just brings up "GH3.exe has encountered an error", I'm glad I let him try it before christmas, would've sucked to encounter this problem on christmas day.

The fuck? You're telling me a game that can run on a PS2 can't run on a 7300? Complete bullshit.

I don't know how the game looks, but the only part that might seem excessive to me is the processor, considering the game is new.

I thought about getting this on 360, but having to pay $80 dollars for it is gay.

Oh, Guitar Hero 3. Played it on the Wii. Fun, but songs not as good as #1. Anyway, yeah a video card shouldn't have to be that good to play the game.

Well, unless I'm overlooking something and somebody can shed some light on this, looks like he's waiting 'till after Christmas to play on his presents, I'm sure it should run, on a 7300, I assumed the same as you Ihmhi. He has all of the latest drivers, I made sure, I even sacrificed an extra GB of RAM to make sure he's P.C is well over the recommended specs for most of them, sadly this was of no good use. Anybody else had problems?
