If you say that it runs fine on a Core 2 Duo, then it should run on my computer. I was able to pick a Core 2 Quad cheap last year after the original processor (a Core 2 Duo) in my computer pooped out. So there is hope! I might have to pick up SR2 soon...

I've been toying with buying the GTA complete pack on Steam when it was on sale for €7,50, but given that I already have the older games and my misgivings about GTA IV, I never did. I love the older GTA games starting with GTA III (never played the original top-down ones), but somehow I have never been able to bring up much enthusiasm for GTA IV. I guess the long delay of the PC release, coupled with the fact that it's supposedly a resource hog and all the hoops you have to jump through just to play just kinda soured me on it...

Plus my friends bought me a retail copy of GTA IV, and I have the vague suspicion that it's the Italian dubbed version, and I prefer playing the original version.
