A great achievement, which should be played again and again.
Bioshock is one of those games, which may have been a huge flop, but turned out to be one of the greatest single player games of 2007. Graphically the game looks a little cartoony but you don't seem to notice this as you will still gasp in awe, at the games environments and the setups that 2K have set for you. Water effects are amazing, as are other elements of the game such as fire, ice, electricity etc. they all look great.
The storyline is great to unravel, as there is so many mysteries, twists as well as turns you will just become warped into the game, you will start at 10am and finish at 3am. However the story seems to be slightly cut short, which is a shame as, if 2K could have extended that, the game would become even more perfect.
All the sounds in the game are in tune with the environment, you will get echos and such. Nothing in Bioshocks sound bank really stands out it becomes something you expect.
The difficulties of Bioshock are to tamed in my opinion, as I managed to get Hard difficulty done without to many problems. And then I attempted Easy which I managed to get through the game in 8 Hours as I just breezed through it like wind.
The new ideas of Plasmids and Big Daddies and LIttle Sisters etc. all contribute to make this game, one of the best games of this generation. The real only complaint is no penalty of death. It is a shame there could be no online play as I think they could have done it, it would be nice if 2K realeased an expansion on the Marketplace or Staright to Disc. So that we could have, online play. Here are my ideas for online play:
Save The Sister: Team 1: Big Daddies Team 2: Splicers
Big Daddies must protect little sister/s from the splicers if all splicers or little sisters are dead opposite team wins.
Deathmatch: Free For All
Need I explain more?
Team Deathmatch: Team Based
Need I explain more?
Capture the Adam: Aquisition
Like capture the flag only with an ADAM jar.
Overall Bioshock is a great game for all those looking for a great storyline as well as features.
