Okay so i hear most Netbooks can handle light games pretty well,How well do you think my Netbook in siggy will handle AOE3?

Just something i could play when im on Holiday :D

Game requirements:

* Microsoft® Windows® XP (Pass)
* PC with 1.4 GHz equivalent or higher processor(Pass)
* 256 MB of system RAM(Pass)
* 2 GB available hard disk space(Pass)
* 32x speed or faster CD-ROM drive (Can get past that)
* 64 MB video card with support for hardware transformation and lighting required (What you think?)
* Sound card, speakers or headphones required for audio(Pass)
* Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device(Pass)
* 56.6 Kbps or better modem for online play(Pass)

Apparently the Intel GMA 950 graphics chipset i have in my netbook can handle Portal and Fear

Look at the netbooks specs he has...so should run fine on mine.

I dont know if the sound is choppy in the vid because of his recording or the actual netbook iteslf?

I suspect the sound is because of the recording. I've played Command and Conquer 3 on my EEE and the sound still wasn't skipping.
 
Lol, I remember getting AOE3 in 2005 :) fun game worked fine on my grandma's computer and barely got past the min requirements :) 1.6 GHz Single core processor 256(or 512 can't remember) MB of ram and a 64 MB video card xD
