Minimum specification looks doable for most.

Dragon Age Origins will be coming to PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 on October 23, which gives PC gamers plenty of time to make sure they've got a good enough rig to run the game.

According to the newly released system requirements, running the game shouldn't pose too much of a problem to most modern PCs, but the recommended spec is considerably beefier. There's a 20GB install too.

You must be so special, Mastor. You come off so insufferable it was nearly painful to read your post even if I agree with what you say concerning oblivion.
In any case, I have an ATI radeon x1250 video card, which doesn't seem to meet suggested requirements, but will it hurt my experiance all that bad? I'm not that learned in video cards.

LOL, yep, exactly, consoles are for people how simply do not know any better, settle for less, dumb massess who are easily brainwashed by marketing, or simply idiots.. Oblivion is nothing like Dragon age with full party control and lots of hot keys,, why even bring it up, totally different breed of game, Dragon Age is a traditional party based game where K/M will be vastly better. If not, you can use Gamepads oN PC, imagine that, anything console can do, so can PEE CEEE.

My girlfriend much prefers using the 360 controller than the M/KB option in Oblivion. Mods were also not enough to swing her. She simply just preferred it on 360. Some people prefer gaming on consoles than PCs, as hard as that may be for you to comprehend.

The thing that concerns me most is the 20GB install. This won't be a problem for any 360 owners, as it won't actually be allowed to force an install of any size, but what will the case be with PS3?

Why get the PS3 version when the PC version will obviously be better, mods, Keyboard @ mouse (RPGs like this are vastly better with K/M0, better graphics, etc..
