  Another 50 GB game. Looks like HD space is going to be at a premium again.

      Still, it's going back to the days of picking and choosing which games stay installed.

  Just another next-gen game with outlandish specs that almost certainly don't reflect any kind of reality.

  It would be great to know in advance if this was a shitty PC port on not. Considering its Ubi, I'm leaning towards "yes".

    I suspect it will be purposefully hamstrung so as to not impact console sales.

  Unless this game looks siginificantly better on consoles, even on its lowest settings, then those specs are bullcrap.

    I'm going to guess that if you run it on say, an i7 980 or i5 2400 w/ a 670 it's gonna be fiiiiine
    
    Unless the gate it so that lower than minimum hardware prevents the game from running. In that case people will be pissed.
