 This game is awesome! But too Short! May 7, 2008
We loved this game. The only thing wrong with it, it was too short! We finished it in about a week. We had a lot of fun with it though.
The best game you will ever play,hands down May 2, 2008
This is by far the best single player game of all time. The graphics are amazing. The story line is one of the best i have seen yet. The characters are unique and very cool looking. The strategy used in the game makes the game more fun and entertaining. New types of using weapons are very cool and different. Basically everything about this game is great except one thing. The glitches are bad. By that i mean i have heard quite a few people have glitches in their games form reviews and buddies. I also had a problem with a glitch where a guy i needed to kill flew out of the map and never came back so i was not able to advance. That flaw will not change my desicion on this game. It is by far one of the greatest games ever created at the time.
Best FPS since DOOM May 2, 2008
I'm the type of guy who isn't really into shooting endless amounts of zombies for hours and hours.
The standard "survival horror" games never really did it for me.
And I despise, absolutely despise, games where you spend 99.9% of the time in a dark room listening to dripping water looking for a key that will open some door to some room where you have to repeat the process all over again.
Keeping that in mind, when one of my best friends starting raving about BioShock and then sent me the trailer for the game, I immediately thought "yep $10 says it's one of 'those' games".
I can not even begin to say how glad I am that I was wrong.
I can not think of a single FPS with as detailed an environment and engaging story.
The plot twists and turns are as exciting and unexpected as anything on LOST, and the way your choices impact the story is truly impressive.
If you don't own this game already, invest now! You won't regret it.
Fun and Fun and More Fun April 22, 2008
I really enjoyed this game. I rented it and kept it till I was able to buy it. I don't usually get shooter games but I was really glad I got this one. This game was one reason I wanted a 360. The graphics are great and the levels are fun to go through. It is fun to just walk around and look at everything. It can get a bit repetitive if you search through every single little thing you can but it is worth it. I wish the wallet could hold more money though. I find it a good way to get out your anger at someone. Just imagine one of the splicers as someone who made you angry that day. And them you can just shoot them or shock them or burn them or freeze them. What fun.
A perfect reincarnation of the so-called SteamPunk world April 21, 2008
The twist in the story is deep, the creation of such a huge underwater city is not only focusing on the graphics, or just the appearance of this whole lost city; but it borrows the idea from Ayn Rand, George Orwell and Huxley, depicting a highly-developed utopia-like society structure's self-demise, vividly, the environment setting is full of Steam Punk style(one of the styles in Sci-Fi).
An extraordinary feature of this game is the presentation of every major characters, from an insane doctor to the mother of the shelter, BioShock uses first-person viewpoint cut-scene, in-game environment presentation, and radio to shape one character, what is she/he like? why she/he wants to go to Rapture(that underwater city)?
Also, Bioshock had hailed to Fallout's stylish concept art a lot, all little vids introducing the new Plasmids, or the icons of every vending machine, the advertisement of the Rapture city, are similar to the Vaults(the company in Fallout).
If you are a pure First Person Shooter fan, this is maybe not your game, go try COD4, Halo3, and Orange Box. But if you like Sci-Fi, read the book 1984, like to play a game with excellent plot, this is definitely your game, and you dont wanna miss it.
