ProGamer is a liar, probably because he's a console fanboy. The game is not demanding at all and even with a cheap mid-range PC I can run it at 60fps on the highest settings and a resolution of 1600x900 (unlike the Xbox owners, who have to run this at 1280x720). I have an Xbox 360 myself and it has its uses, but it's just not nice to mislead people like that.
I'm sure Mass Effect 2 runs fine on the 360 but it has five year old hardware so it's ludicrous to say you'll need 4GB RAM to run a game that runs on a console which has only 512MB RAM. Though this game runs perfectly fine on mid-range hardware, your laptop is only entry level. The HD 3450 is not supported and you have a slower laptop version of that card.
Your processor is fast enough and you have plenty of RAM (I run it on less RAM myself) but unfortunately the graphics card is the most important component and yours wasn't designed to run games. These are the system requirements: 1. OS: Windows XP SP3 or Windows Vista SP1 or Windows 7 2.
CPU: 1.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (equivalent AMD CPU) 3. RAM: 1 GB for Windows XP or 2 GB for Windows Vista / Windows 7 4. VIDEO: nVidia GeForce 6800 or greater; ATI Radeon X1600 Pro or greater.
(nVidia GeForce 7300, 8100, 8200, 8300, 8400, and 9300 and ATI Radeon HD3200 and HD 4350 are below min-spec) 5. AUDIO: DirectX 9.0c compatible 6. DirectX 9.0c August 2008.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
