If your computer meets the system requirements do not buy this game.
If you have a dual core processor do not buy this game.
If you have a graphics card below the 4870 do not buy this game.

This game requires a monster rig to run it on. If you thought Crysis had steep system requirements you have seen nothing yet. You will need the latest i7 processor and a 4870 x2 to enjoy this game. GTA IV is now synonymous with "sloppy console port". Rockstar are a bunch of liars and I will not be surprised if a class action lawsuit is filed against them. Remember when Microsoft put Vista Capable stickers on laptops that could not run Vista? This is the same deal. These guys are a bunch of crooks. They treat their customers like crooks by forcing them to install securom and a bunch of other validation software like Social Club and Windows Gaming Live. This game is a waste of 16GB and $50.
