Other than the HD space, the system requirements seem very reasonable.
25gb? Definitely won't be putting this on the SSD.
Bethesda Admin said:For RAGE, we’ll be using Steamworks for activation. You’ll simply need to be online once (per PC you’re using) to activate the game. Once the game is activated via Steamworks, you can take Steam into offline mode.
Is Rage going to require Steam if you're buying the DVD version? I really wish I would be allowed to install the game from a DVD to wherever I want on my HD and not under Steam. My HD partition where Steam is is getting quite full, you see.
EDIT: Nevermind, found the info myself. It uses Steamworks. Damn, gotta start clearing my Steam HD partition then. Decisions, decisions…
From Bethesda forum:
According to a lot of "unbiased" people playing this, it's pretty terrible.
I'd stay far away from it, even as a mindless shooter fan.
I don't usually put much stock into the opinion of people who torrented their copies.
Still, I appreciate the heads up. I was going to wait anyways, since I'm knee-deep in Dragon Knight Saga right now.
