well those screens look nothing like the demo on my machine, but i tell you what, this game is very playable on a 7800gt! im amazed that i can actually play this demo, my machine would not even think about running DiRT- and this is the same engine.
they clearly tweaked up this game engine and it looks fantastic! the hell with the reviews that say the physics arent real- to me they seem to mimic real and otherwise its all out FUN.
not to mention, for the first time ever in my experience, you can START the game, and THEN plug in your xbox 360 controller into the computer, and it works perfectly. JUST like a console now- no setup, no starting the game after the controller has been plugged in, it just works now no matter what. finally, about after a decade of wanting play-then-plug controllers for computers i got it.
i cant wait to get my new video card now. ill have money come the second week of june i think. i need to start looking at a video card- no more then $200 this time. my $300 7800gt lasted a good three years i guess... not too bad really but not great.
any suggestions on a gfx card? pairing it up with my trusty opty165 and 3gb ddr400 ram
ps- ive been waiting over 3 years for this game to come out. after playing the demo i feel its going to be exactly what i hoped for. this will probably be the only game ill play for the next couple years... anyone want to donate me one of those logitech g25 wheels?
