    This will be cool I think - is it their own proprietry graphics engine? Or a licensed one? As long as they get the controls right, I'll be happy... Just need to finish Gears of war (Again, after all my saves were erased, HL EP1 & 2 and Devil May Cry before then... having the old game clear out!!!)

    Woo Hoo!!!! Gonna be cool!!!

    EDIT - Do you think that they are going to make the MP cross platform, or not because of the alleged control advantage?

    ^^ Probably just enough to make it a christmas release...

    As long as the date is in 2008 I'll be a happy man.

    Yeah! Can't wait, this'll be brilliant!

    This is great news!

    I just hope the developers optimize it will well so it won't require a stupidly high spec PC to play it

    You could always go for the DS version if your rig isn't up to the task

    I doubt the requirements will be that high considering it's a console port and previous editions have scaled pretty well.

    No, I really hope they push the boat out with plenty of customisable graphical options, higher quality textures, etc - go to town and push the game engine to deliver all it can. If it's just a straightforwards port then I'll stick to my 360 version and play from the hard drive with the autumn update

    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    I`d prefer them to optimise so that it takes advantage of high spec pcs and the extra graphical oomph possible but after playing the last few ports I doubt they will.

    I will buy it though
