I think I've also heard Unreal Tourny 3 is as well, but I can't remember where I read that, could of just been a rumour.
this is what i've heard... I thought Bioshock would be as well.. but from what i've heard thats a negative....

bioshock was suppose to support dual cores...
it worked for some people, and it didnt for the others.
I guess dx10 and utilization of multi cores is still a problem that needs to be fixed.

I've read on various places that bioshock does make use of multi-core cpu's. I think that all games off the unreal 3 engine, which will be a ton, will all make use of quad core also.

i have a single core amd 3400+ upstairs...and my rig downstairs.
And i gotta say..the diff is HUGE.
I cant stand using the single core pc.
IMO all pc's that are prebuild should come with dual cores...celerons need to be wiped out for sure!!!
