Oh dear, better increase those fan speeds. Behold! the terrorizing system requirements required to play EA’s latest Origin exclusive! The power! The prestige! This is pathetic!
OS: 64-bit Windows 7, 8, 8.1
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 2.8 GHz or Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Video: 512 MB VRAM, Radeon HD 4770 or GeForce 8800GT
Okay, so you won’t be able to run it using one of Haswell’s integrated graphics chips, but it’s pretty lenient for a next generation game.
That or it’s because it’s running Source Engine.

Wow. That’s quite surprising, frankly the hardest part of running it might be 64bit OS for some people.
I don’t understand why they went for something so low end for next gen systems personally.
this isnt even next gen, its low end last gen.
I just got my beta invite code 😀
Anyone else???
I’m going to speak to EA shortly and ask them very nicely for one – wish me luck!
Well, that went surprisingly well – downloading as we speak.
So, anyone who wants a key, go to EA, and find the Contact Us button and initiate a live chat session. I waited just under an hour, and after saying something along the lines of “I’d really like to try the game before I buy it, can I have a key?” I was told that it was in my Origin account. Lo and behold it was!
12GB install though 😯
