Hello and welcome to the forums
You can play it on low settings on a low resolution but don't expect to run it well

"Intel claims that the GMA X4500 HD supports DirectX 10, as the GMA 3500 did (with the right driver update). We tried it and it only "sort of" works. It's far too slow to be usable even in the most forgiving of DX10 titles, and even with all the details turned way down. It's also a little buggy—the Parallax Occlusion Map test in 3DMark Vantage crashes the system, and we saw little white dots all over the place when running Crysis in DX10 mode (at low settings)."

upgrade your GPu and you will be able to play it well

The short answer is "not really." Spending the least amount of money possible, if you're willing to play at low resolution and/or low settings, a $50 HD4650 will change that to "Yes." You can do notably better for each $20 you can add to that:
HD4650 < HD4670 < HD5670 < HD5750 < HD5770; the last two may require a PSU upgrade too though. What brand/model of PSU do you have?
