So I'm buying a new computer based on some advice I got here on Yahoo Answers (yay!) and figured I'd buy a machine with hardware power that's up to par with present computing, and then some.
So, with 2 gigs of ram and 2.6 Ghz of processing power, I was feeling pretty good about playing some of these cool news games! Until, that is, I started looking at system reqs and recc's....
THESE ARE UNBELIEVABLE!!! Are games really this demanding?!! Or are the manufacturers simply overstating to cover their butts?
... Is there anything I can do that might help?

Alright, some helpful info (especially the second post, thank you!) The video card is still being decided but I'm leaning toward a XFX 8600 GT 256 MB [128 Dedicated.] Again this was a practical computer that I also thought could play some sweet games cuz of the latent hardware power, so it wasn't initially a big thing... I didn't really want to have a video card at all.
How does it look, doc? Will he still be able to play the piano?
