BLAM!!

Aeropause was pointed in the direction of this thread on Midway's site where a moderator (notice I didn't say developer) posted the minimal PC requirements for their upcoming Hard Boiled sequel (in video game form) Stranglehold. To say that they're ridiculous is a bit of an understatement:

  • Dual Core Processor

  • 2GB of RAM

  • Nvidia Geforce 7800 or ATI Radeon x1300 or higher

  • 15GB of HDD space

Keep in mind, those are the minimal requirements. By comparison, here's the minimal and recommended requirements for Bioshock:

Operating Systems: Windows XP (with Service Pack 2) orWindows Vista

Minimum System Requirements:

CPU: Pentium 4 2.4GHz Single Core processor

System RAM: 1GB

Video Card: Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 128MB RAM (NVIDIA 6600 or better/ATI X1300 or better, excluding ATI X1550).

Sound Card: 100% direct X 9.0c compatible sound card

Hard disk space: 8GB free space

Recommended System Requirements:

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo processor

System RAM: 2GB

Video card:

DX9: Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512MB RAM (NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT or better)

DX10: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 or better

Sound Card: Sound Blaster® X-Fi™ series (Optimized for use with Creative Labs EAX ADVANCED HD 4.0 or EAX ADVANCED HD 5.0 compatible sound cards)

Important Note: Game requires Internet connection for activation

For now I'm tagging this as a rumor being that the info came from a forum moderator, but I'll be keeping my eye on this one.
