I just started playing today. Dissappointing a little bit on the start, can't believe it there's alot of people having troubles just by installing the game. So far I had 3 crashes of "Bioshock has encountered a problem and needs to shut down". :banghead:

How do you guys finish games so fast? It takes me months to finish them. Do you rush thru it? Or spend 6 hours a day on it?

I started playing it, but I get so distracted.
No problems here, and I was able to run all max settings with 1680x1050 (only thing off was the DX10 option(s), which the X1950 I had didn't run) made the crash scene in the ocean look absolutely amazing. I think I managed to grab a few screenshots of it, but, anyhow, irrelevant.
Never crashed on me, but haven't played it since last week, and installed a bunch of crap since then, so status may have changed.
