The i5 is going to be just fine man.  Look at Shogun 2.  It scales down in graphics very nicely without a huge hit on how the game looks.  I'm pretty stoked for this game.

Is there a rough eta so the beast is built and ready?

Maybe that explains why they hire Canadians and Aussies to play Brits...  8)

Romans have British accents in games and movies because the actors who played the Imperials in Star Wars had British accents. British accent = bad ass with dash of awesome. Menace and coolness. Bangers and mash.

I believe either in the 1st or 2nd quarter of next year.

^I'm not sure if that's correct. I read somewhere upon the announcement of Rome II that it would be the end of 2013. 1st or 2nd quarter seems awfully soon.

You probably are correct.  I can't find any official word and the sites covering the game still have the date as 2013 TBA listed.  I guess it would be kind of quick in the first couple of quarters.  Knowing CA they probably will release just before Christmas.

I can't find anything definitive either. I'm also still a little bitter the next game is not Victoria: Total War.

I would have guess you would be begging for a Steam Punk: Total War.  Yeah try to get that image out of your head.  8)
