S!

Minimum requirements are just that what they say. Settings where the game runs at a relatively low resolution(for today's standards at least) and without any bells and whistles. It is playable but far from high FPS, enjoyable gameplay or anything compared to the screens and pics on a game box, for example.

IMO the devs could put minimum requirements to reflect a game that has say medium settings at a reasonable resolution at the lowest render..in this case DirectX 9(which is not a bad one). A medium range machine that is the most common today. I bet the minority of gamers have a superduper machine but more like a midrange where the GPU/CPU are reasonably priced for the consumer.

Marketing a game with low requirements without telling that the game looks just plain bad then = false marketing. The minimum requirements never say that you miss sometimes a lot of the features that a higher end user will enjoy.

I am confident after seeing the specs that my AMD rig is more than enough for a nice gaming experience at anything except the Ultra settings(or whatever devs have decided them to be).
