So as some of you may or may not know, there is a wonderful website that looks at your system specs and compares it to the requirements of a game you list, than tells you whether or not your computer is fit for it. If you wanna check it out, here is the link: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com
However, advertising this site is not the goal of this topic. I am wondering if after all, this website really is that accurate, I mean, I can run Terraria pretty decently but, according to the website my computer does not meet the minimum requirements. So I tried testing for Payday the Heist and Payday 2, it gave me the same fail thing.. of course I KNOW. There is a big difference between pixely, simple terraria and high resolution, great graphics Payday 2. I can also run Team Fortress 2 without any bad lag, but I don't know how those graphics compare to the Payday franchise. I have been wanting to play those two games for a while now but my not too decent video card has been holding me back..
Also, when I try to play portal 2 on my computer the graphics are really glitched and well.. just... weird. So if that is an indication as to how Payday the Heist and Payday 2 will run, well tell me XD I could always get it on the PS3 but of course, than I couldn't play Payday the Heist since it is PC only and not to mention I'm not the best with any type of controller, let it be xbox, PS3, or whatnot. I find PC controls with the good ol' mouse and buttons much more comfortable and easier.

It's good enough for telling you how far above average you are. Just not for getting to average.
