God, the requirements are stiff. The number of chipsets officially supported is also unnerving; they only accept the most highest-end models.
It’s been a couple of years since the 8800 was ‘highest end’ … I thought everything was reasonable … except 23+GB of space! Heck, Empire: Total War and upcoming Dragon Age are *much* bigger than this game and are only ~15GB!
Also, does anyone know if Aspyr is doing a Mac / PC hybrid release as was done for stuff like The Sims 3 and so on?
Wow, these requirements are different than what I had previously seen. Hopefully I’ll be able to run the game to write a review for it. 23+GB hard drive space? That is the most ever for a PC game I believe. I also don’t meet the CPU or video card requirements (I have 1.83ghz dual core, 8600 GT).
This is just the min requirements…. For recommended go to aspyr.com… Its a 2.8ghz core 2 duo, and 512mb 9800GT… Now i have a 2.0ghz processor & a 9800GT… But i have been able to overclock it to 2.46 without an extra cooler… Hope no errors pop up in the cutscenes… i had tried darksector which also happens to be one of aspyr’s ports… It worked well on overclocked mode too… SO i’m hoping it’ll be the same here…

Dude the 8800 is actually a 256mb variant.
NOTE: 256 MB Video Memory with Shader 3.0 support

Lets just hope that there is anti-aliasing and other PC norms that ports these days are lacking
(correct me if this is not a port)
2.8ghz quadcore intel 9550 with nvidia gtx260 overhere…let’s rock!
3.4 ghz intel Q9550 with GTX285 + X-Fi here no worries here
Nice post. I hope you keep on writing such informative stuff
