Okay, I would really like to purchase this game, but there's been a lot of posts of people having trouble with older cpu's. So, in a truly selfless attempt to spare everybody from me whining about my crappy laptop failing to run GC2, I figured I would ask first what my odds are. I've got a hp pavilion ze4400 that's over 2 years with the basic stats: mobile AMD athlon XP 2400+, 1.79 GHz 448 MB RAM... all close to recommended so feel pr

There is a big, BIG difference between playing a game of basketball with a klutz who is a foot taller than you, or an opponent of your own size and skill level. Playing against an opponent who plays by the same rules is immeasurably more immersive because it tells so much more of your own abilities and decisions. If he outsmarts you, then you chastize yourself for not seeing it coming, and you learn to try it yourself the next time. If you
