Wow... the economy is so great now for getting jobs to buy things with... whats that BBC? unemployment has risen to 2.64m in the UK? That's terrible! In other words the OP is asking "Why are there poor people?"
Because some people can't afford higer specced machines and must play it at lower settings, as I will be when my invite comes, if I can play it at all. Not everyone is priveleged to have the best system ever, or even a half decent systen.
