I would have thought so. Nearly all new games released now are Mutli-Core supported.

True, my card isn't as powerful as a 6800GT. Haven't played any games at all that show it's true power, mostly play games like Exteel and Ijji Gunz. You can play those games on IGP.

These are the system requirements off of the box, for the people who don't know.

OS: XP SP2 or Vista
CPU: Intel P4 2.4GHz or faster /AMD 2.0GHz
RAM: 1GB or more (2GB for Vista)
HDD: 12GB or more free HDD space (wow)
Shader Model 3.0 required

ATi X1300XT or greater (ATi X1300, X1300 Pro, X1600 Pro, Radeon 2600HD and HD 2400 are below the system requirements)

Nvidia 6800 or greater (7300, 7600GS, 8500 are below system requirements)

I skipped some stuff like Disc Drive, Keyboard, Mouse, stuff like that, but you get the point.

Ok, have a question. The system requirements say that 12gb free space is required, but the game only includes one disc. How does that work...lol.

Wow, this game is amazing. I've been playing it for the past couple hours and can't seem to stop. It's like watching a movie or something.

The only things I could see as an improvement would be Anti-Aliasing and some of the shadows on characters look horrible (like on their faces). Other than that, holy cow, I'm impressed.
