EDIT: Seems to be an error at the moment.

Publishing error, updated with the ESRB rating.

We'll have the full specs up soon! And spelled correctly!

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Wow, the page actually says Windows Vita.

 

[Damerman]

this sounds reasonable.

i wonder how deep they got into DX11.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Vita confirmed TPP!??!

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Wow, the page actually says Windows Vita.

Lol you're right.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Windows Vita?

Vita saved?

 

[Durante]

Unsurprising specs for a cross-gen game.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

:lol Windows Vita

 

[GhostTrick]

Sounds reasonable indeed.

 

[bbd23]

Wow, the page actually says Windows Vita.

hahaha I didn't even catch that..

 

[Inferno313]

Not bad.

My 970 should handidly destroy it.

 

[TheSeks]

Unsurprising specs for a cross-gen game.

.

Want to see beyond PS4 level graphics from the Fox engine on PC.

 

[Tidus_Great]

but a ps3 and 360 can run it, why so high?

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

What Konami's track record like for PC ports? The requirements sound reasonable, but I'm still not quite ready to believe this'll be a good port.

 

[RK9039]

I can play Vita games on Windows?

Specs sound good.

Well, I have Rising, Castlevania 1 and 2 and they all run great.

 

[SolidSnakesMyStepDad]

I can't wait to give it a shot.

 

[Ermac]

Microsoft Vita confirmed

 

[PowderedToast]

MGS2 port was horrendous, but that was a long time ago

 

[NotLiquid]

Neat. Should be easy to get 60-120 fps from it.

 

[baconcow]

Microsoft buying Vita, confirmed.

 

[GhostTrick]

but a ps3 and 360 can run it, why so high?

Because it's supposed to run it at higher fidelity ?

 

[Ermac]

That feel when when I have a 460.

Gonna have to upgrade soon

 

[Dylan]

So, minimum requirements are usually never anything you'd actually want to play the game with.

Out of curiosity though, do a lot of PC games actually require a quad core processor? What if say, you had a Core 2 Duo @ 3.0Ghz? I'm wondering if games are now reliant on 4 cores to the point where they won't run properly on anything else?

 

[Spaghetti]

sounds pretty efficient. minimum and recommended specs are generally conservative estimates anyway in my experience, i've managed to fudge my way around getting higher settings on lower end hardware and even getting by on below minimum requirements.

edit: not sure if it's been posted anywhere but it was confirmed on the steam thread that the game has a max frame rate cap of 60. sorry people with 120hz screens.

 

[DieH@rd]

I'm very interested to see if they will increase LOD distances for objects/shadows pop-in on the PC.

This will decide for what system I will purchase the game.

 

[Mohasus]

but a ps3 and 360 can run it, why so high?

Lazy devs that can't optimize their games for PC. A 2nd gen i5 as a minimum requirement, oh wow. I wonder how it runs with an AMD APU then.

I don't even know why konami is even doing this considering the PES port released today.

Spoiler

They either just ported the PS4/XO version or the requirements are inflated, just like ACU and TEW.

 

[Ishida]

but a ps3 and 360 can run it, why so high?

Because the PC version will look and run way better.

 

[Kezen]

Pretty high CPU requirements, but I don't see the game being too hard on the hardware, even at max PC settings.

Core 2 Duo... eeew. I had this before upgrading this year. It may work for cross gen games. Metal Gear Rising had an i5 sandy bridge as minimum requirement but it still ran really good on a HD4870 and a Core 2 Duo at 3ghz.


Also people, it's worth nothing that the minimum requirements are the same as Metal Gear Rising.

Considering how console version terribly lack of texture filtering... the choice is already settled for me.

Pretty high CPU requirements, but I don't see the game being too hard on the hardware, even at max PC settings.

Same CPU requirement as MGR for minimum... i5 Sandy Bridge... likely to be i5 2400 at this frequency.

 

[-Deimos]

To cover their bases. You'll probably be able to run the game fine with a less powerful system, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

wasn't this confirmed in the same press release that detailed support for 1080p+ resolutions and more dynamic light sources?

 

[Eusis]

Wow, the page actually says Windows Vita.

The way no one expected Microsoft to enter the handheld market: by buying Sony's. (EDIT: Beaten by being distracted in the middle of post writing.)

I feel like it might be a little more helpful to list the older mid-range card rather than a more modern low end card, but then graphic card names were always kind of screwy, especially from nVidia.

 

[RK9039]

wasn't this confirmed in the same press release that detailed support for 1080p+ resolutions and more dynamic light sources?

Yeah they already confirmed that.

 

[Popcicle]

Publishing error, updated with the ESRB rating.

[Blablurn]

Sounds alright

 

[Parsnip]

Seems reasonable.
But as we all know, you can't trust minimum or recommended specs.

But more than that... Pre-order ? When ?
Come on, I have my money ready, why don't Konami take it now ? :/

 

[DieH@rd]

Those things will not impact much of my decision. Popin is much more noticeable for me. PS4 does not have large problem with it, but it would be nice if PC could preform better.

 

[Nzyme32]

Seems reasonable.
But as we all know, you can't trust minimum or recommended specs.

Yeah that is my usual thought. I have a laptop that is lower speced but will give it a try when it is out just to see how it does.

Ah thanks anyway

So no Vita version?

 

[Spaghetti]

like i said, i'm pretty sure something was said about the pop in with that same press release. i don't think they used the phrase pop in though.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Seems perfectly reasonable.

 

[TheBowen]

That sounds pretty good to me. Should run great on a GTX 670 and I5 3570K

Now we just need a price

 

[Ark]

My 970 is primed and ready.

 

[muzzymate]

Well looks like my Geforce 210 powered machine is out...

Spoiler

My Steam machine is powered by a Radeon 5670 which also won't cut the mustard

 

[Rogue Agent]

Neat. Should be easy to get 60-120 fps from it.

Like Spaghetti said, 60fps locked for GZ http://steamcommunity.com/app/311340/discussions/0/613941122619835287/#c617319460827117256

 

[sprinkles]

Exactly what I thought. A 650 is still too much for this, considering it's not an open world but, you know, a single map.

A 650 costs around 80-90€ and is the bottom tier of dedicated graphics cards you can actually buy today. I don't think that is asked too much.

 

[Foffy]

This game needs a GTX 650? Really?

 

[Teknopathetic]

A 650 is a really, really, really low end card, dudes.

 

[Nethaniah]

Oh god dammit.
