Dead Space 2 system requirements

Can't decide if I should wait for some (user) reviews before buying this. I have an iffy feeling it's going to be another dodgy port.

I always wait until at least the DRM has been disclosed/announced/discovered, and since the CODBLOPS fiasco I won't be pre-ordering any game until I've read the user reviews. I'm not ending up with another horribly broken game locked to an account.

The last two games I pre-ordered ended up like that too. Mafia 2 (half a game with DLC milked), and F1 2010 a totally buggy game with plenty left out.
 
As DRM topic keep popping is, is there any information on what/if any type of DRM this game is going to use?

I remember ages ago EA were considering Ubisoft's constant online requirement.
 
I doubt EA will use much more than a CD check coupled with an account lock for multiplayer, a bit like Bad Company 2. In fact bad company 2 gave you the option of a disc check or limited activations, which I don't have a problem with, 'cause if you ran out of activations you can always re-install the game and use a CD check instead.
 
People make far too much fuss over DRM.. I have seen Dead Space 2 PC on pre order for £20 not bad for a day one release, and the reviews I have read so far are all 9/10 or 9.5/10 [on consoles that is] lets just hope the PC version is not too F.U.B.A.R.. I had no problems with Dead space apart from the famous Vsync one [turn it off in game and force it on in Nvida control panel or the ATI equivalent] If the new title plays as well as the old one I for one will be happy
 
Dead Space 2 has appeared on Steam. No option to purchase or a price yet and they're bundling Solidshield DRM for free!

EDIT: Price is £29.99

Dead Space ran absolutely like silk on my rig so I'm very happy that the second will most likely do the same (although I am doing a upgrade anyway).

I'm happy to see that great looking games not requiring a huge amount of horsepower behind them.

Same here.

I was able to max the game out at 1080p and the game was running at 60fps with hardly any dips.

Hopefully this sequel should run almost the same as the 1st but as it looks to be more action packed and there seems to be more going on at any one time compared to the 1st, theres a good chance that there will more frequent framerate drops.
