uh , surprisely my PC is actually way above the recommended requirements for the game :/
will the Xbox 360 version graphically match the minimal or the recommended set of the PC version ? because I pre ordred the 360 version ( look fucking good ) , but if the 360 version look worse than the PC version at the recommended setting , i will jump to PC with this game.
Probably neither, its never matched the GPU performance of an 8800 series GPU in any mutliplatform game before. I'll 100% guarantee you that it'll be no where near matching a PC rig with the recommended requirements, at best it'll
match minimum, but to hope for anything more than that is just wishful thinking, it'd be totally unprecedented.

My 9600GT says I should go with the 360 version anyway.
No, it really doesn't. A 9600GT has never performed worse than Xenos in multiplatform titles (at worst they may have come out equal), I don't know why you'd assume that's about to change. Remember the 360 version is 720p with zero msaa (though it has analytical AA which the PC version will as well) and zero AF, at 30fps, that's really not such a high standard to hit with modern PC hardware, no matter the game. Heck, a 9600gt isn't a million miles away from pulling that off with Crysis very high settings, and I've certainly not seen any console manage that.
The 360 version looks amazing for what it is, don't get me wrong, but modern PC GPUs are 5-10x faster, and optimisation can only go so far.

I fucking knew it. 8gb ram? WTF Only thing I pass is the CPU and my PC is only 8 months old!
Man, some people really need to learn to take a joke. Here's a hint, the GPU in those "optimal" settings isn't even for sale yet.
Honestly, people
really need to stop reading so much into minimum and recommended specs, they've meant precisely fuck all for far too long a time. They don't even begin to hint at what framerate/IQ/resolution/graphics settings that you'll achieve with the quoted hardware and as such they're pretty damn worthless. Wait for some respected sites to benchmark it or for some trusted members of PC-GAF to give performance analysis if you're worried.
