Irrational Games has recently updated the Cult of the Rapture website with something called 'BioShock PC Blowout,' revealing tons of details on the Windows version of the game, in an attempt to answer all major FAQs, as I found via VoodooExtreme.com. Everything you've probably asked yourself about the PC version of Irrational's highly anticipated FPS, is answered below.

"How much will a single-core processor hold you back in playing this game?
A single core processor will reduce your frame rate compared to an equivalently clocked dual core processor. However the game is still perfectly playable on single-core processors using lower detail settings.

Will Athlon dual-core processors work with this game?
Yes, they get a similar speed boost to intel dual core over the equivalent single core processor.

Will a DX10 card also play the game in DX9 on XP?
Yes.

How does the DX10 version compare to the 360 graphics? And DX9?
The 360 and DX9 graphics are roughly equivalent. The DX10 graphics add a few additional features and image quality enhancements on top of this.

What kind of frame rates can you expect using an 8600 card and DX10?
Depends on what detail settings you use and what resolution as well as your CPU. Obviously this card will support the game pretty well though, so I would expect at least 30-40 FPS on high detail.

How high a resolution can you play this game at with recommended specs for DX9 and DX10? What will the frame rates be?
Pretty much whatever your monitor and card support. For a really good frame rate we would probably recommend 1280x1024, though you could go higher if you prefer higher resolution to super high FPS.

Will the game run fairly consistently at 30 FPS on the recommended system specs with medium graphical settings?
Definitely, and probably higher.

What does the internet activation entail? Why do you have it?
It's an anti-piracy measure that we unfortunately have to implement to curb illegal game distribution as best we can. It's a one time check and then you're done.

Is there another way to activate the game if you don't have internet at home?
No, you must have an internet connection to install and activate the game. It is part of the system requirements because of this.

Can you play the game if you have to reinstall windows after you have installed it once?
Yes, this is possible."

Let's hope all this good news doesn't mean that the Xbox 360 BioShock will not be as good. However, given that it is a FPS, the PC version should totally kick ass, so there's practically no chance for the console to offer the same gameplay experience, no matter what.
