This is great news for PC owners, especially those of whom have super-powered Alienware rigs! I bet Mass Effect for PC will look absolutely stunning. I mean, BioWare did a fantastic job squeezing all those gorgeous visuals onto a tiny DVD for the Xbox 360 and I don’t doubt BioWare can really push the boat out - graphics-wise - now that they’re free to work their magic on Mass Effect for PC.
Nice find, mate.
Dont think it will equal Crysis or Bioshocks specs which is good, as more people will be able to enjoy it without selling a major organ to fund PC upgrades.
