Indeed, this game is going to change the way we look at gaming. Aside from being so demanding that most people will not be able to play it without a hardware upgrade, it will be the first to make full use of the highest, most bleeding edge hardware upon release. I have heard somebody say that by the release of this game, there will be no hardware yet available that can max it out. If you are playing medium/medium-high settings, you will be doing excellent.
