In Response To: New Halo Computer: Poll Results (REB)

I voted to upgrade my computer, though I'm not sure if I can afford that. Do you think my 700Mhz G3 iMac with 16MB VRAM and 700 MB RAM is enough? I read the requirements for Medal of Honor, and while I haven't played it, my system is only "adequate" by the game's standards. I can't believe that computer, one year old, is already outdated!!!

But it runs games really well. I cant get 60fps on Descent 3 with all details on -- no slowdowns anywhere. Yet how will it do Halo? An nVidia with 32MB vram would be nice for it, I think...You wouldn't believe how it runs Myth 2!

I'm looking at getting a job next summer, so I'll have a little money. Halo won't come out til next winter, so I'll have plenty of time.

Right now...uuhhh...it runs Marathon real good! =^D
