Average.


Average -- A word used to describe "normal" "among others" "one of them" "alike" and so much more.

When it comes computers, an average person has a decent amount of RAM and HDD space without any troubles with space, an average person has a Graphics card enough to play videos without any lag, an average person has a sound card enough to play music without any problems. Are YOU one of THEM?

Yesterday, 26th of April, 2015, the first and official Reveal Trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 has been released. Not to be offensive, A LOT of people hated it. 48% of the people disliked the official reveal, that's almost the half of 100%. I saw some people on the comments section wants to play as HUMANS. The only thing that got them interested was the zombie mode. Some of them said that the CoD Franchise should stop pushing itself to the future. As for me, I want to try it out.

But we don't just stop there. The official Minimum System Requirements have been released together with the reveal trailer. Here it is:


  • Operating System: Windows 7 64-Bit / Windows 8 64-Bit / Windows 8.1 64-Bit
  • Processor: Intel® Core™ i3-530 @ 2.93 GHz / AMD Phenom™ II X4 810 @ 2.60 GHz
  • Memory: 6 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 470 @ 1GB / ATI® Radeon™ HD 6970 @ 1GB
  • DirectX: Version 11
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Sound Card: DirectX Compatible
Now here it is. Let us suppose that you're just a guy working in an office saving up for a new house, and you have to deal with an issued laptop given to you by your company. You can do everything with it, install, uninstall, whatever, your choice. Now this game is released on November 6th, 2015, and you want to buy it, just to try it out, despite CoD Franchise's popularity. But as soon as you headed to the store, you saw the jaw dropping system requirements. It does NOT fit your average.

By means of average, how can you tell that something is an average PC?

According to my research, 2014 Steam Survey, the Steam User Average specs are unexpectedly -- lower than that of CoD: BO3 for about 20%, and that's just the minimum. However, I can see that most people commenting on the reveal trailer can run the game with no problems. I'm sure they're fans and gamers. Lol.

Now tell me, Are you one of the average?
