Windows XP and Internet Explorer required

Windows XP Game Advisor requires the use of the Windows XP operating system and the Internet Explorer (version 5.5 or later) browser.

Here's a shocker, the game adivsor refuses to load in firefox. Time to dust off IE.

My computer doesn't suck as bad as I thought!

As far as Far Cry. Right in the middle between Min. and recommended.

I'm running a Matrox G450 card. If it doesn't run on a PS2 or GC, I'm not going to bother trying

Game Advisor will not even run on my PC (2K w/Firefox ). Oh well, I don't really play that many games anymore anyways. Here are my specs just for the fun of it Link

WHAT THE HELL,

i have the same video card as you, twice the amount of system ram as you and a Athlon XP 3200 rated at over 2.2ghz that would pwn your Pentium4 and mine does not meet reccomended requirements for the game WTF is up with that?

not me. i refust to run IE.

 

[Iron Woode]

I have an idea:

How about taking one of the better pics and doctoring it with some bizzare hardware specs (past, present or future) while using photoshop like they do at somethingawful and post them here?

That would be cool.

ie: C64 results.

That kinda makes me think that the game advisor is screwy.


I may have a faster CPU (me 2800 / you 2100) , but you have double the memory I do. Yet I scored a lot higher.

I think Far Cry is more memory and GPU dependent than CPU dependent.

Oops...forgot the link to my screenshot

[Reikon]

Pretty far past it

No programs ever seem to recognize my Athlon XP Mobile.

 

[jdiddy]

I'm good to go. Has anyone gotten the very last green bar?

All you morons babbling your anti-microsoft bullsh|t need to realize something: they're a great company with great products. If you're smart enough to know how to use them correctly, there's nothing wrong with their products.
