I've just searched for Black & White as im thinking of pre-ordering. The search results gave me B & W for the PC, DC and PS.
It also gave me the Black & White official strategy guide, which is released on the same day as the game! Whats the point of that!?!?!?!?!? Who is going to buy the game and then use the strategy guide to complete it in about a day? What a waste of money!
Please dont tell me any of you on here were thinking of doing that!

You can grab a nice Voodoo card (3 or 4) for under £100 now, well worth it.
Trouble is, my PC is compact so it only takes laptop components, so to upgrade from its miserly 2mb video card to 64mb will cost me £170. That's why I got a DC, so I can now use my PC for work and my DC for play.
My life is now PC/DC. :-).
By the way, thank you SR for delivering Grandia II today (less than a fortnight for any prize to be delivered is kind of 'exceptional', so I posted a nice message about you in one of the competition site forums).
I am not likely to get much work done now for a very long time indeed.....

Apparently it scales to whatever system you have.
I think the min is 64mb, 8mg video.
However, I have 128mb, 1Gig Athalon, Nvidia TNT2 64 Pro, should monkey whacking in full glorious speedy colours.
Hurrah for credit enabling me to purchase The Don of systems.

Good plan, i think i'll pre-order mine today as well.
Anyone know the specs it needs? Ive only got a AMD 400 with 16MB voodoo3, ive heard rumours that B&W needs a P3 600 or something stupid. Anyone know?

No, but someone will do because "It's a bit hard"
Not me, I'll get B&W on Friday and post a review on Saturday based on 1st impressions.
