Looks quite pretty, I hope this revamp of the series is successful and doesnt turn out like saaaay... Angel of Darkness..

Those are some low requirements

Hey sweet, My PC can run this
yaay

I think it's the same engine DX:HR ran on, so if your computer can run that game, you should be able to run this game.

Say what you will about how boo hoo bad consoles are for the gaming industry; I like not having to shell out money for a new CPU and graphics card every couple of years to keep up - and with games like this and Crysis 2, I can play them perfectly on my PC that hasn't seen a screwdriver in several years

[CoolCorky]

I can't believe games are still being made that work on XP.

Low minimums and high recommendeds? This is how every game should be. DXHR on PC was really quite good, looking forward to this.

Dat spec discrepancy. I guess the game settings can be tweaked significantly for performance? I'm dropping in at just below the recommended with my 470.

Square Enix have been really nice to PC.

Don’t own half a score of monitors?[/quote]

The hell.

o AMD Radeon HD 4870
nVidia GTX 480
· Quad core CPU:
o AMD Phenom II X2 565

So, a HD 4870 is equal to a GTX 480, and an AMD phenom II X2 is a quad core now?

Or is this due to their experience with AMD?

[Juggernog]

Recommends DirectX 11 GPU, suggests Radeon HD 4870 (DX10). Also the AMD Phenom II X2 is not a quad core, it's a dual core as the 'X2' would suggest.

Interesting.

I'd like to see that engine actually work outdoors.

the DXHR engine is actually the tomb raider underworld engine - so yes it does
