See here. The 2K shooter has to be worth it at that price if you haven’t tried it out already. We just hope you enjoy putting bits of pipe together and following a big arrow through some corridors.

“We just hope you enjoy putting bits of pipe together and following a big arrow through some corridors.”
Blasphemy!

A matter of taste. I got bored, I’m afraid

“Matter of taste” is the cowards way out. My taste is ‘better’ than yours!
There! Now we can properly fight about it.
March 11th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
Heh. You win. I have terrible taste.
March 11th, 2008 at 1:22 pm
You’re boring.
/picks fight with Blerk instead

Hmm. Tastes like chicken.

Nope you’re right Pat. Bioshock is a beautifully put together game with brilliant art direction but it does get very dull, too much reliance on
Pipemaniahacking sections and much surely be the first game where the bosses (the big daddies basically) get easier and easier to defeat the longer you play? Final boss was rubbish too.Other than that I loved it

The balancing thing really struck me, definitely. The game did get easier as you got more tooled up. After a while progression was pretty much a formality. You’re dead right there.

The last third is shit. The funny thing is, after the fanboys spent months crying about how it was a flawless masterpiece and slagging off all detractors for not “getting it”, even Levine came out and admitted he’d ballsed up the end.
First two-thirds were awesome, though.

I killed the gurlz. Haha, i am bastard.

The first bit was good. Then it was the same. Then I turned it off. I saved the little girls, because my wife was watching.

My main peeve was that the setting was so compelling and richly visualised but almost entirely ignored. C’mon - a whole underwater city! The scope could have been great and the ‘water as a threat’ gameplay could have been really interesting and different. Instead we got a damp ghost-town.
Still, a good game with some interesting ideas. Just not the legend it has since become.
Also: Ken Levine isn’t stroppy enough.

Ken Levine’s nowhere near stroppy enough. Never admit you’re wrong, Ken.

I loved every cotton-pickin’ minute of it.

Last third was shite. Nothing to do with Macs.
