Take them with a grain of salt for now but they've been floating around the net so thought I would post them.
Pretty steep but then I was kind of expecting them to be and why I pre-ordered the PS4 version before I upgraded, especially after Watch Dogs and the last AC title (which were both cross-gen). Shouldn't be long before we find out whether these are legit or not though
[Edit:
Confirmed pretty much.

I've cancelled my preorder after seeing those specs. There's no chance I'll be able to come even close to playing it until I upgrade my PC, which is not going to be until the new year sometime.
What with getting a PS4 too, this is going to be an expensive few months...

I mean, I'm glad I upgraded when I did as I'd much rather be playing this on my PC than PS4, which I was expecting to be the case before I did so as I was worried about being able to run this to begin with. Lucky that I had the PS4 as a backup in that case as I'd have been really upset if I wasn't able to play it at all (my most anticipated game next to DA:I). Sucks though cos I was hoping we'd be able to try the co-op out as a group, tis just typical that I'm going to be one of the only people able to play the damn thing lol :/
I can always reinstall it when the rest of you upgrade though I guess

Did anyone ever play Valkyria Chronicles on PS3 by any chance?. I own it but it's one of the many games in my backlog which I've never seemed to get around to.

I always wanted to play it, but never got to, as I was on 360 at the time. The anime was pretty great too
I will probably pick this up for PC. Very happy to see this happen!

I'll probably sell my PS3 copy and get the PC one instead (assuming it comes with improvements).
Now why can't they do this for Lost Odyssey?

I've been dragged back into FM14 over the last couple of weeks, so even though I wasn't really planning to I'll probably end up getting FM15 next week methinks

What were we saying about Unity, Rogue and the series in general again?
Just tweeted the vid but thought it deserved a post as well.
If my hype for Unity wasn't already sky high then it bloody well is now!. Holy crap.
Also, Valkyria Chronicles for Nov 11th release btw (have edited it into the list above)
£10.53 on GMG with "SLICKD-EALS22-OFFGMG". Will be £14.99 once released

At first I was like, wtf??. But this is actually
really interesting.
Part of me thinks it might have been nice for them to have kept stuff like this on the quiet (so it was a surprise) but it has managed to raise my hype for the game even further at the same time so... lol.
Anyway, just 2 weeks to go!

Agreed. Just sucks that some people here won't be able to play it yet due to the system requirements is all.
As a PC gamer though I am thankful that Unity isn't being held back by the old consoles and that they can go all out on it this time around. It definitely looks better for it both with the tech and visually. Game looks sick. Unfortunately though that obviously means that higher system requirements come with it, they can't not. Every previous AC game has been built with the old consoles in mind (even Black Flag which was cross-gen) so I knew they were gonna be steep for Unity, just maybe not quite so much.
2 more weeks though!. Super excited for FC4 & DA:I as well but I'm thinking Unity will be the game to beat this year. For me at least. Not long before we find out ^^

I won't be upgrading my monitor anytime soon but when I do it'll be a 4K G-Sync
Also, whilst I know it's unlikely to change anytime soon it is about time that PC moved ahead with the times and joined the consoles in regards to disc storage. I just received my PC copy of CoD:AW today. How many discs do you think it has?. 1? 2? 3?
Try
6. I know we don't require our discs in the drive like a console does and digital distribution is much more popular on this platform as well but still.. games are getting bigger and bigger all the time. We've moved from Floppy>CD>DVD, I think it's about time we moved to blu-ray already too.
