BioShock System Requirements Announced

Talking a little hardware this afternoon, the folks over at 2K Games have announced the final system requirements for their upcoming first person shooter, BioShock. The game features some impressive visuals, so you may be wondering if your rig can handle it. Well, here's your answer:

Operating Systems:

  • Windows XP (with Service Pack 2) or Windows Vista.

Minimum System Requirements:

  • CPU: Pentium 4 2.4GHz Single Core processor
  • System RAM: 1GB
  • Video Card: Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 128MB RAM (NVIDIA 6600 or better/ATI X1300 or better, excluding ATI X1550).
  • Sound Card: 100% direct X 9.0c compatible sound card
  • Hard disc space: 8GB free space

Recommended System Requirements:

  • CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo processor
  • System RAM: 2GB
  • Video card: DX9: Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512MB RAM (NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT or better) DX10: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 or better.
  • Sound Card: Sound Blaster® X-Fi™ series (Optimized for use with Creative Labs EAX ADVANCED HD 4.0 or EAX ADVANCED HD 5.0 compatible sound cards)

Important Note: Game requires Internet connection for activation.

Kind of sucks that you need an internet connection to activate the game, but I'm assuming it's to help stop piracy. Either way, I'm still looking forward to this one. ;)
