...they were running on the most stable system specs available on the market and that happened to be an HP powered, Windows 7 system with Nvidia's 700 series GTX GPU.

Running on a nvidia GPU, oh the irony.... (looks like a 680)

Looks like PC's shouldn't really have any trouble with next gen if this is to believed. Some of the E3 demos look amazing and if an off the shelf nvidia gpu can run them there shouldn't be any problem with future games.

Yep, I realize that most demos are done on PC for ease of development, but if a pc can run those demos it should have no problems with the games.

Edit: Another game (dead rising 3)

for the record this isn't anything new. All console games are developed on PC and the dev kits are just custom pc that have dev tools loaded on them. If we wanna get techinical Xboxs, ps1, DS ect. are just custom PC in a different form factor.
