A well crafted singleplayer tale which will leave you in awe

No Gods or Kings, Only ManFrom a distance, 2K's latest Blockbuster, Bioshock, might just look like a pretty first-person shooter, but it's actually much more. Calling it a "pretty shooter", does the game a disservice and sounds insulting considering the level of creativity, and atmosphere Bioshock achieves. Bioshock is ...

BioShock Review
(
X360

When I thought new Sci-fi shooters began to overlap, I was contradicted after purchasing BioShock. The primary difference this game has (although it has numerous differences to today's shooters) is its emphasis on making decisions. At first when you are given the choices in this game, they don't seem so ...

Before I got my hands on this masterpiece of a title, my Xbox 360 randomly couldn’t read any of the disks I put into it, resulting in me having to send my 360 in for repairs. So while I waited, August 21st came around, and still, I had no 360. ...

Tons of people in class ask me if this is the next Halo. When I say no, they're dissappointed. Just because it's a First Person Shooter, doesn't mean that it fits in the same class as Halo because BioShock redefines the single-player fun and innovation of the FPS genre and ...

Bioshock a creepy game, but not actually scary. The visuals are beautiful and the story is quite intense. I found the FPS gameplay a little subpar but it’s not really “that sort of game” - it’s more than that. Towards the end I was really starting to get pulled into ...

Bioshock, by now, is a game that really needs no introduction. It's a game that absolutely knocks the door down and brings about the real "next-gen" that both Microsoft and Sony have been touting about since 2006. Easily one of (if not the) best games of 2007, and worth the ...
