It's because it's not the recommended GPU.
You have the minimum so you should be able to play.
Don't expect high FPS though.

I think it says that just because it doesn't know what it is. It says the same as my Intel HD 3000 even though it can run the game happily of fairly high settings

Your card is a very low end card. Check for example this. The desktop equivalent is at the bottom with a low frame rate, and there's a chance the mobile version is even slower. (Another benchmark showing a little better results.)

Thanks guys, I think I'll give this game a miss :p

I have a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5165 (1GB), and they want to upgrade it, too. But Skyrim is playable on high ^^ So I suggest you to try it out. You have a 512 MB and the reqirement should be a 256 MB graphic card. As ET3D said, on low res it may will work.

You can probably run it since you have 2GB+ video ram and a good CPU. I used to have a 6000 card with only 500mb video ram and when I did the canirunit tests on games that required 7000-8000 series cards it always said I failed BUT a few of the games I bought anyway (or already owned) and I could run them fine at medium graphics (sometimes low) with vsync and lighting/shading turned off.

Thanks again guys. Tempting me to get it again now :p If I do, I'll update you with the results.

You'll be able to run the game but don't expect maximum settings. It will definitely run on medium/high though. The issue is because Arkham Asylum uses PhysX, which is an Nvdia exclusive.
Isn't there a demo for the game? Get that and see it for yourself if it's playable.

Well I'm running it on Medium and getting an average of 40 FPS. The game is brilliant and it was definitely worth £3.40, so it's all good!
On Very High I got an FPS average of about 10/12 and I didn't try the High option.
Thanks again guys :)

I've been trying to decide whether or not to purchase Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY Edition recently since it is currently on sale for a great price of £3.40. Since I am on my laptop until I build a PC in August, I decided to see if I could run the game before I bought it. I use canirunit.com to test these things even though some people say it sucks, I see no issue with it. This brought me to ask this question:
Why does it say my Video Card is not suitable even when it meets all the requirements? Is it simply because it's a mobility card?
Results from canirunit.com
p.s Yes I know, my hard drive space is seriously low xD
