nfs-shiftA week before the full release of Need For Speed: SHIFT, Electronic Arts has decided to post the minimum system requirements for the upcoming game and let me tell you that they seem pretty regular. Strangely, the developers listed an Internet connection as a must have feature, but I doubt that is correct since I am sure that the game will still run without internet (especially since SecuROM is the anti-piracy checker here). Either way, check out the minimum system requirements for Need for Speed: SHIFT.
