Pirates is selling for only 20 bucks these days, and I'm wondering if I should buy. Problem is, I have a low-end laptop, and I'm not sure if it will run. I have 256 ram, a processor somewhere around 1.5 ghz, and a 32 mb graphics card.
This rig will run anything made 2003 and before -- Morrowind, Rise of Nations, etc. etc., with moderate settings (shadows are almost always turned off in 'bigger' games like Morrowind). Then again, a game like Dungeon Siege II runs beautifully for about 15 minutes before the game is just too much for my ram.
I'm not that big on visuals, just gameplay (anyway, anything looks better than Pirates Gold on Genesis).
Anyone tried it with a similar machine?
Should I buy, or would it be a waste of my time?
Thanks for the help.
