I have never seen a game have (Highly recommended specs) before.

I call likely not true for recommended and (Highly recommended specs).

If true:
1) A 3GZ i7 would be a bit steep.
2) 4Gb of ram is ok.
3) HD 4870 x2 is would make think that the GPU is not the biggest deal.

I don't think they are true, but if they are I could run it good.
