    The source is EA Store. It isn’t mentioned, but they are most likely recommended. Having these as minimum seems like a stretch.

    I just bought it, thinking that I might be able to play it, but it will not run.
    My system’s hardware is too old, so now I am stuck with this game!

    would it work on this: ?

    pentium M 740 1.8ghz
    512MB ram
    Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900 (or sth like that)
    direct x 9.0c

    note that i only need to be able to run smoothly, not play with best graphics.
    so will it work?

    I’m running it with a 2.4 ghz system, 2 gigs of ddr800 ram and a nvidia 7900 gs video card and this game is a resource hog. Even at the lowest settings it staggers at times. I’d be careful about the minimum requirements here and expect some speed issues on a normal system.

    u have the right specs, whether u can get it to actually work or not seems to be a matter of good luck…

    Siomply putyou can play this on a ‘recomended’ machine ok as long as you a:) dont mind pitifull resolutions and b:) dont like to build big cities. And as a side note the damned thing wont utilise more than one cpu so forget your quad core upgrade giveing you a boost, It aint there.
