Ran perfectly on mine, but then it should do. I have heard people say it runs well on modest gaming PCs, I guess the demo should help you find that out.

I've found it better to wait until I have a comp that can handle a game properly before playing it. Struggling through a game on 2fps just sucks.

My copy arrives on Tuesday so if you don't see much of me next week you'll know why.

Tuesday!! dam u got off worse than me!
steam said BIOSHOCK RELEASE WTFOMGBBQ!!! and so on.
However due to a Europe release I have 2 wait :S
dam Yanks get all the perks :P
So Far, i've played through demo 4 or 5 times :S
my bioshock gets activated at 9pm Friday night
which is strange since the game came out 4 mins ago
i could walk down to ASDA and buy it this second so im confused why steam is making me wait till Friday night :'(

Hopefully you guys are all getting the game via Steam, so that way you don't have to deal with all the DRM/spyware/rootkit crap that is SecuRom - Talk about SecuROM and activation issues here only please! - 2K Forums

Ah crap, I've already ordered it too. I always have problems with 2K games, I think I'll return this and never buy anything associated with them again if this gives me any problems.
