hi! i'll see how it is, and if i like it, i'll get bioshock 2 as well. damn, BioShock Infinite will be released in 2012!

i like such games, which provoke a bit of thought as well, instead of just - go online, shoot, go go go go, etc.

Bioshock is one of those games that really pulls you in. I haven't played Bioshock 2 yet.

Enormous understatement. Aside from the Nintendo franchises, Bioshock 1/2 has been my favorite game. It's a combination of the dramatic theming, the great storyline, and the utter creepyness of some scenes. See the "Game Music" thread for some OST tracks... they're awesome!! (Especially "Pairbond" from #2)

Edit: When you start to play, turn off all the lights and put on headphones. It will creep. you. out.

i've played it for a bit now; my current goal is to find that creep doctor. it's just a generic zombie game so far, or am i missing something? just, zombies come at you and you shoot them down. :s

on top of it, this is my first fps on a console, it's too difficult to get precision with the right analogue stick (instead of a mouse). i feel dizzy after 5 minutes, and have to put it down every time.

my experience so far - 1/10.

what? how is it different from any of the million other FPS games so far? zombies come, i shoot them, and collect their money/bullets/etc, rinse and repeat. like i haven't seen this before.

is it those posters with quotes in them in the game which is supposed to make it "political, and morally ambiguous"?

i hope it picks up later on.

Step back and look at the story. It's brilliant... and so is the musical score. Also, you have to remember, this was released in 2007.

To this day I have yet to see a game with a more complete visual theme as Bioshock 1/2.
