Battlefield 3 specs leaked

The system requirements for the PC version of Battlefield have been leaked online, by a distributor’s website.

Gamestop reportedly announced the details on their Battlefield 3 product page over the weekend, but have since removed the information.

As you would expect, the third game in the Battlefield series is a rather demanding one and users are going to need almost state-of-the-art technology in order to run this game to a high standard.

The console versions of the game will obviously run more smoothly than the PC edition, making it extremely likely they’ll outsell their PC counterpart.

It has to be stressed, however, that the below requirements have not been officially validated by EA – the publishers of the game, or DICE – the producers of the game.
