Yea I should have done that, rather than doing the lazy, copy paste 'arg', tries MS word copy paste tool.

What matters is the info is up :)

We need screens!

Awesome.I feared that I can't play the game cause it uses Unreal Engine 3.0 and usually UE 3.0 games use SM 3 as minimum requirment.Go Epic...or Midway...Whatever.Go both of you :lol:

Actually there are hotfixes to play UE3 games on shader 2.0.

Ive seen one for Bioshock - heck I d'loaded it, but dont own the game yet.

ATI Radeon 9600 (minimum required card) is SM 2.0 card , i think. so this one does suport SM 2.0, thouhg there is no gurantee how it will play

I am definitely looking forward to this game. Have been a big fan of all of the UT series, and this one looks particularly sweet.

Thanks for the heads up on the Specs. :D

I honestly wouldn't get too excited yet. If Midway really is the publisher and Midway really gave these specs, you can count on them to be a little optimistic.

Publishers have to push copies...the more people with systems that can run the game the more people that will buy the game.

Epic would know requirements far better than Midway.

It doesn't matter, I can still play, but that system requirement is so awesome. I mean nobody expected that much, did they?

Wow I would think the 7600GT cards would be minimum req graphics card, but hey you know when you hear the words "Unreal Tournament" you know where its at. Well it's good to know that my (temporary) X850XT 256mb card can run both Crysis (which looks like Farcry on highest setting and no jaggies) and UT3 on my specs.

Now we gotta see the specs for Call of Duty 4 and if Infinity Wards follows suite then "Wam Bam Thank You Mam" :D

Same min reqs as the speculated reqs were year ago already, I guess they succeeded in optimizing this game well, but I still need a new CPU badly. :( Not that I care for UT.

THERE'S NO WAY THE RECOMMENDED SPECS ARE FINAL!! #$@%@#

They are way too low for a UE 3.0 game....but,if they are....then this might be the best optimization ever...

Word bro!

If these are real, then MAJOR props to Epic for the awesome optimization! Man, UT3, CoD4, and maybe Crysis and I'm good to go! :D

This is either some great optimising by Epic or not the final requirements since they just don't seem that demanding to me. But i'm hoping its the former lol

Looking forward to purchasing this game, really hope its like the old UT'99 :D

Most people are complaining for the low requierements because they were too rushed to buy the latest and "best" hardware, that in the end, was never necessary or a great deal for those games...

I have a laptop with a 9600 Pro in it. I'll be tempted to install it on here to see how well it does. I'm assuming it's going to be pretty unplayable, even if I *could* get it to run decently I'm guessing it won't look any better than UT2k4 on high settings for me. Most likely it will look worse in a lot of ways..... Still, very tempting :)
