[Assassin's Creed requirements]

[phsychokill]

These have been up and down on the ubisoft site so not certain if these are final but is what ubi is posting but for some reason they post it then take it down after a while.

The spec needed seems a bit high but then the game is quite complex and open. Anyone else have any opinions on this?

In order to play this game properly, your PC MUST meet or exceed these minimum requirements:

Don't bother with assasin's creed. It's terrible on Xbox 360 and it's probably as bad or worse on PC.

High specs due to it being a console port.
