Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: software-center
Whenever a user is going to download a game from Software Center, he
would like to know that if the game is compatible with his system or
not. This is more prominent particularly with paid games because a user
with low system requirements may purchase a game only to find later
that it won't work with his system.
For example games available for purchase like Steel Storm have heavy
requirements like 2 GB recommended RAM, 512 recommended video memory, a
decent graphic card from ATI/NVIDIA etc. Same is the case with Vendetta
online.
Users should be clearly communicated what are the system requirements
needed to run the game. It can be in the form of an external link or
with in the game description or somewhere else. Most of the online game
distribution services do it and it is really important for users.
