Yes, that'll be more than sufficient to play TS2. If that "free internet security product" they're advertising is Norton, though, remember to uninstall it and get something halfway decent to replace it with first thing.

Same thing if it's McAfee. Run from both of those as fast as you can and replace 'em with Avast or AVG.

Thank you so much guys!
Why wouldn't you recommend McAfee/Norton?

A: So are we cool?

McAfee isn't terrible, but it's not worth the money; it's resource heavy and, well, just not a great antivirus program.
Norton is a nightmare. It's resource heavy (so it slows your computer down), it doesn't catch viruses, it does stop other stuff working properly... and they actually expect you to pay for it.

You're much better off with AVG or Avast!, both of which are free, reliable, and very effective - you get strong protection using either.

McAfee is also full of advertising, which is odd given that it's a pay product.

Hum, that must be relatively recent, it wasn't when I had to use it abut five years ago.
