My video card isn't good enough to play this game. So before I buy this game, I'd like to know how much it would cost me to buy a video card that can play this game smoothly, and what kind of video card I should get.

Id recommend at least a 7900/7950 or the x1900/x1950

Your looking at something between £120-£200

On the highest quality settings they can run between 20-40 fps on a 1280x960 res looking at the benchmarks.

I have an 8800GTX myself, but they're quite pricy :/

Before I would spend a dime on a card or the game, I would post my PC specs to see if the computer is good enough for the video card you want to upgrade to as something tells me that your PC might be in some need to upgrading/updating as well, then, I would decide if the game is worth it.

Nevermind I'm not going to buy a new video card because my dad's computer can play the game. I tested it with System Requirements Lab. Here's the results

I got the game last night thinking it would run fine, but it was laggy as hell, and I don't know what's wrong.

Its Your video card...

7300's run the game like ****. I used to have a 7300GS myself and the game was barely playable. the LE isnt as good as the GS so the game would be pretty much unplayable

Everything else is fine though http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/25.gif

The game requires a ton of power without providing much in the way of visuals basically.

When in doubt, overestimate game requirements. Many are only good enough to get the game to "run" at medium-low settings anyway.

We'll need your entire PC specs before we can recommend a video solution to you.
