according to that they upped the video specs from the 512mb 8800 gt and 4770 cards they originally mentioned we would need

Too expensive.

No it's not.

How weird - I already have all that, except for the graphics card. The problem there is that my system is old AGP, and those cards can be had, but not cheaply.

All the mentioned hardware will be out of date by the summer2010... so these are really soft requirements for a new generation of games...
Try to play Bad Company 2 on that...

I think so, Dan said medium should be doable on 8800GT (iirc, correct me if I'm wrong). Seems like that changed to 8800GTS, but that's just 1 step up. Overclock a 8800/9800GT a little and you get the same performance.

I have a 9400 Quad-core 2.66ghz and 1 gig gts 250 video card running xp windows with 2 gig of ram

GTS250 = 9800GTX = 1 step above 8800GTS 512
For what it's worth, I've got 8800GTS 512 and I'm not worried.

*All the upcoming games, such as Mass Effect 2, the new AvP, Bioshock 2 and SC Conviction, have a 8800 as recommended. My guess is you'll get decent performance with that in SH5 as well, or Ubi would be shooting themselfs in the foot. They can't expect everyone to upgrade just to play SH5.
