Bioshock 2 System Requirements: Go Away SecuROM, You’re Not Welcome Here
Bioshock 2′s system requirements have been published today, and guess what? Our little friend SecuROM is hidden away, cackling to itself in a way only the most evil beings know how. Alright, there’s no limit on installations this time, but honestly I won’t be happy until SecuROM goes away for good.
By the way, you can pre-order Bioshock 2 on Steam here. It’s 10% off, and comes with a free version of Bioshock (which you can gift to a friend if you already have).
Hit the jump for the (pretty reasonable) System requirements.
