I hope for a dev response to this one =).

Bioshock does not support Pixel Shader Model 2. You will need a video card that supports PS 3.0 in order to play Bioshock on the PC.

Lol... you need a graphics card that supports Photoshop 3.0 to play this game!

But yeah thanks for the definitive answer. Regardless of system requirements people seem to keep asking anyway.

I have a 7600GS. They're pretty good. Mine was over half less than the X800XL I bought less than a year before.
