Will my computer Be able to handle Spore?

[Wiiguy]

I have a 2006 Toshiba laptop, and was wondering if my computer could handle spore. It plays Sims 2 and Half life 2 pretty well. My computer plays the creature creator fine. But I want to know if it can handle the game, I know that the spore game says that you should have a 2GHZ, But I'm wondering if that is minimum or recommended.

Here is my System Info-

Processor: Intel(R) Celeron(R) M CPU 530 @ 1.73GHz 1.73GHz
Memory (RAM): 2.00GB
System Type: 32 Bit Operating Sytem Windows Vista Basic
Graphics Card: Mobile Intel(R) 945 Express Chipset Family (256MB)

Yours can play. But at the very minimum.

In the beginning of the game, you can play smoothly. That's just my guess. But as you play through the game, the game will get even heavier and more data is processing, the graphics and everything, may slow down your computer performance. Especially on the graphics, which can cause your computer lag, graphic tearing etc.

This would spoil the game.

I played it pretty smoothly on a Radeon X300
Up until the final stage, where lag become so bad I quit the thing all together.
But yea, if you just avoid that last stage, you could play the rest really no problem.

[ShyguyXPC]

kind of defeats the purpose of playing to complete the game (since thats the point of most games) if you have to avoid the end part (thus not completing it), due to inadequate gaming hardware...

[Gardnerg]

Eh, I play for the experience, completion is just a side goal.

[Wiiguy]

Yeah, mine ended up working just fine. At about medium quality everything is running smoothly.
