well it isn't out until Monday for most, only reason i have my order is cause i bribed the kid in EB
The controls are very responsive, as long as you've got the game running at a decent speed ... i mean even at 5-10fps the game appears to be running at a decent playing speed because it has a frame rate compensator. So it's always displaying 60fps not matter what the rendered value it.
the min system i'd say would be
800mhz CPU (1ghz duron/celeron)
128mb ram
GeForce3/4Ti or Radeon 8500pro
simply because it is EXTREMELY demanding even at the lowest settings... for full graphics you'll be wanting atleast
1.5ghz CPU (2ghz duron/celeron)
512mb ram (sorely increases loading times)
GeForceFX 5700 / Radeon 9600XT
however it is playable, on my lowend system at home
Duron 800mhz / 256mb / GeForceFX 5200
even at the lowest settings it barely hits over 45fps, nice thing is though with the shaders although it runs at around 12fps - it still runs at 12fps at 1024x768 with full shaders.
Turn the RT Reflections down/off and the shadows off and it starts to show a better 25fps...
really to get this game responding the way it should you'll want it to be running atleast 60fps if not better.
though i agree on the menu's they are a little awekard, but thats a NFS title for ya
