I bought the THQ pack from stream and was wondering if my laptop would be able to play Red Faction Guerrilla. Here are the specs

  • Blu-ray Disc™ playback
  • 4GB (2GBx2) DDR2-SDRAM-800
  • ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4650 graphics with 1GB dedicated video RAM
  • Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P8700 (2.53GHz)
  • 16.4" VAIO extra-wide HD display (1920x1080)
  • Genuine Microsoft® Windows® 7 Home Premium
  • 500GB SATA Hard Disk Drive (7200rpm)

Also is there any other games in the pack I would not be able to run besides Saints Row 2? thanks

You should play it pretty well. You wont max it out completely but it will be good.

if it runs funny at all, i'd also suggest disabling SSAO (doesn't make a big difference [edit: in graphics!], big framerate boost), and running the game in windowed mode - even if you run it at the full resolution, windowed mode seems to help a lot for some reason.

Unless they released a patch... the game may run at like 150% speed. The last time I tried it on 7, that's what happened. But that was RC, not retail... I guess they could've patched it by now.

The game is really at its most demanding during heavy debris and destruction scenes. Like the other guy said, disable SSAO, the quality loss is very minimal at best.

was confused by the title, since RED FACTION is an old game... gotta name your threads properly when you are talking about the 3rd game in the series.

you'll have to cut back on the partical physics small lighting effects and draw distance but it'll still but quite playable.

It's definitely one of the big boys, the physics and stuff are quite processor intensive. You might suffer some slowdown when demolishing buildings and stuff.

These were the settings I used to get a smooth (never below 30) framerate on my rig (q6600 @ 3.6ghz, 4gb ram, 5870, xp64).
