Weird requirements, I'm not very familiar with AMD's numbers but there seems to be a lot of disparity between the h/w of the 3 companies.
The 8GB ram requirement also seems lazy as it is the total installed memory on both the consoles (usable is much less). Not sure how well ported it will be. It could probably be just what they had on hand.
I won't be there day one on PC or even PS4.
My PC with windows 8.1, some background apps and 2 torrents downloading slowly and 2 chrome tabs is using 6.6gb of my 16 at the desktop.
Why wouldn't a PC require more resources when it is doing so much more in the background?
The game itself might not use more than 4, but in order for it to do that it needs to have more than enough for system tasks.

That's just the cache using more RAM. I've more open right now and only 3.2GB is being used.

Im just trying to figure out how in the hell they say a gtx 550ti for nvidia and HD 7870 for amd. Thats utter garbage right there. 2x gtx 550ti are barely as fast as a HD 5850.......

Not much to comment on the specs, but price is 59,99€ at steam!
49,99€ is kinda ok, 40€ would be great, but not going to pay 60€, 50€ would be a buy. Will wait for some kind of sale.
