If these requirements are true, they're are a lot higher than in previous NFS games. Which is good, it means that the graphics are finally better. I just hope it's optimized.

The recommended seem a bit higher, but nothing that an actual gamer doesn't own. I hope to run it well on medium to maximum settings. :)

Well we know that the graphics are awesome but so it's not so much of a good thing that the specs are so high

Im not sure does my PC meet the requirements... I think its the processor and RAM that arent good enough. And I think I have to buy new motherboard too for the processor... And new steering wheel... This game is getting expensive to me, lol. But at least it should look good :)

High system req's don't necessarily tell whether the software's going to be all that great.

Just look at Vista...

Hmmmm, if these really are the system requirements, which I doubt, then I should run this game with NO PROBLEM.

My Specs:

Power Supply - SilverStone Strider ST60F (600W)
Graphic Card - Club 3D Radeon HD4830 (512Mb)
CPU - AMD Phenom Quad Core 9550 (2.21 GHz)
RAM Memory - Kingmax 4Gb (800MHz)
HDD - 500Gb (Sata II)

Good enough? :P

When I saw all the screen shots which looked so real... I already guessed it's requirement would be that high...
*Sigh* Guess I won't get to play these new NFS games until I get a pc made for gaming...

The only way I can play Undercover without lag is that I turn off all the effect, which then the game ended up looking like cartoon...

Anyway Most Wanted's graphic was quite ok too but it didn't require high requirement, I can play it smoothly with high alias and effects without lag... Wonder can they make these newer NFS version have lower specs...

Erm, I don't know about this specs, maybe they will be like Most Wanted, since these aren't official... Anyway, Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box also has very good Graphics, and it doesn't need something really high... I play it with all GFX on Max and smoothly! And IMO it's the best Racing game that EA Games have ever made... 3x Times better than latest NFS's...
