Assassins Creed Unitys crazy minimum PC specs: $500 GPU, $200 CPU, 50GB storage

Ubisoft has announced the minimum requirements for the PC version of Assassin's Creed Unity -- and, well, they're a little bit puzzling to say the least. At a bare minimum, the new Assassin's Creed game will require an Nvidia GTX 680 or AMD Radeon HD 7970. The recommended specs take that up to a Core i7-3770 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and a top-of-the-line GTX 780 or Radeon R9 290X. The minimum PC specs are about twice the processing power present in the Xbox One. What on earth is going on?
