    i do hope there's a demo - It's not really the usual fayre of "Corridor - Room - Corridor", so I'd like to get a demo to see how I get on with the dynamics.

    "Still, one of the supposed problems with this super-interesting game has been the worry that PC gamers will need a super machine to process all those wide-open spaces at the stable framerates they deserve."

    What? Really? PC gamers were worried about that? I thought the graphics looked fairly basic (good but in a portal esque way). Surely after kitting up for crysis over the last year PC gamers have nothing to worry about until the next console generation?

    I get the feeling that the control set will be better on a console, but hey.

    Gonna grab a PC copy anyway. Looks hot.

    PC version controls were good - it's easier to navigate around with a mouse.

    Surely those min specs and SM3 are a contradiction?

    The rooftops of the city strike me as a world composed largely of simple shapes covered with presumably a fair bit of texture repetition, so I'm not too surprised if the requirements aren't so high as all that.

    That game looks epic. This is going right below Fallout 3 on my game anticipation meter.

    Lets just hope that my Prometheus is up to the challenge.

    I always found it better getting the PC version of a game anyway, primarily due to hardware superiority. Could always plug in a 360 / PS3 controller and remap the buttons if the game is similar enough across platform. I generally have done for racing games.
