Well maybe I'm not alone but sometimes when I watch these HD trailers and whatnot my current setup just cant handle it - I have been saying to friends irl (yes I have friends) that; "jeez I cant even watch the trailer, I'd hate to think what its going to be like for the game reqs" so well this isn't really news to anyone that the specs for the upcoming stream of games are going to be insanely high.

This is for Bioshock:

Minimum System Requirements:
CPU: Pentium 4 2.4GHz Single Core processor

System RAM: 1GB

Sound Card: 100% direct X 9.0c compatible sound card

Hard disc space: 8GB free space

oh well I might be able to still play hl2:ep2 if they haven't ramped up the engine too much.
