Digital Illusions may have upset players of Battlefield Heroes recently with their pricing "upgrade" but fans of their other Battlefield games are happy that they will still support dedicated servers for their upcoming shooters Battlefield 1943 and Battlefield Bad Company 2.

Today the game's official web site revealed the system specs for both games. Since both use the developer's new Frostbite graphics engine the only difference is in hard drive space. You can check out the system specs after the jump. Battlefield 1943 is due for a downloadable release in the first quarter of 2010 while Battlefield Bad Company 2 is scheduled to ship to stores on March 2.
