If it actually requires a 8800GT to run it's pretty demanding.

wonder how 2x 3870X2's stacks up in it lol if it wants at least an 8800GT its going to pushing some nice graphics

So I guess the PS3 version should be quite dumbed down then?

Hopefully to PS3 version is actually programmed to use the cell cpu good. But I'm getting the PS3 version for awesome graphics and better controls. :toast:

good I was hoping they didn't go all console weak.

Is it going to be released on the Wii?

TheMailMan78 · Feb 2, 2011

Dat ma brotha.

These seem awfully high for a game that is supposedly less graphically intensive. Are these officially confirmed?

n-ster · Feb 2, 2011

hope this isn't going to be demanding because it is a console port, but because it has 10x superior graphics than consoles

got a source for your info?

n-ster · Feb 2, 2011

I'm sorry, maybe you misunderstood.

I said that I HOPE that the minimum reqs are so high because it will have better graphics than the consoles, and not because it is a shitty console port

what do you base this off of?

+1. My laptop might be OK for medium settings.

said I AM HOPING THIS WILL NOT BE A SHITTY CONSOLE PORT

means I wish that this does not turn into a shitty console port. I am not saying it will be at all, I am hoping it will not be

I wish that the reqs are high because of it having better graphics (ie: PC game ported to consoles), and hopefully not because it is a console port (ie: consoe game ported to PC)
