I'd hate to go buy a desktop just to play a game, but if i keep watching the youtube videos that whats gonna happen!! Â the game simply looks incredible, and i had played flashpoint way back when and loved it, just was never into computer games...well, im gonna break my old desktop out and see what that does, but if i have to buy another comp just to play ill def check with you guys before i do.....thx ya know, i never got to this ? since the game wouldnt work on my laptop, but will a controller work with this game?? and if so, any one in particular you guys recomend?? ive had friends tell me the mouse and board is better but im a console gamer so not sure if my patience will hold up!!

Hey guys, just joined up and i gotta question. Ive been reading alot in this topic and honestly some of it does/doesnt make sense as i dont know alot about computers, ive always been a console gamer. Ive seen some videos of ArmA and it looks great, but in doing some research it seems i cant play it. The demo doesnt work, and then i saw someone post srtest.com, so i went there and tried it. My computer passes everything except it says it wont work with the video card i have, even though it passes...heres what it says: Video Card Minimum: 128 MB video card with Pixel Shader 2.0 (NVIDIA GeForce FX+ / ATI Radeon 9500+) You Have: ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M Series () FAIL: Sorry, your video card does not meet this minimum requirement. Video Card Features - Minimum attributes of your Video Card Video RAM: Required - 128 MB , You have - 132.0 MB Video Card 3D Acceleration: Required - Yes , You have - Yes Video HW Transform & Lighting: Required - Yes , You have - Yes Vertex Shader Ver.: Required - 2.0 , You have - 2.0 Pixel Shader Ver.: Required - 2.0 , You have - 2.0 Now a buddy told me that it seems it just doesnt like my video card, but since it a laptop i cant change tht anyways....is that true?? also im running vista if that matters....i greatly appreciate any help, the computer isnt the greatest as i just bought it for business, but its brand new so i would think it could run the game....thx
