well u cant compare newer games to the old one. new games are more fine tune to play on older system,while sometime back, everyone thought new game always need new system. they loss, by losing a very big slice of pie for the common consumer that does not upgrade just to play games. so game nowadays i think mostly pretty much can run on older machine, albeit not run in all its glory. (well... except games with specific target ie:crisis to break the barrier)

anyway, is running TS3 on 4500HD good? what setting/resolution etc do u use? thinkin of buyin a lappy with that spec for my lil sis.
