Originally I was quite excited, but from what I've heard, the game has degenerated into a generic shooter in which the player can utilize "revolutionary" abilities.
So no, not really.

if u were one of the few who were expecting this to be an RPG adventure, they been saying over and over that it is a SHOOTER.

Well since early this year I have been looking at various computer parts. It's come to the point of actually building it before a major good game comes out. So I'm ordering the parts this week before Bioshock. It's got a 8800GTX, quad core CPU, 2GB or gaming RAM, 500GB HD, and a whole bunch of other stuff. A tad bit more that $1,600 but it should easily eat up Crysis or any future games. My current setup is this: URL (http://www.xfire.com/profile/hool10/) *Ok I can link you to the wish list: URL (http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/wishlist/PublicWishDetail.asp?WishListNumber=7309927)

Wait, you've been playing for more than 350 hours and you're only level 51?

The main feature of this game is it's dynamic, jesus. Plus you can't tell from videos or anything that a game is only triggers. WOW

Lol it gets addictive. Only play it when there are no good games out but that should change with TF2 and L4D.

I'd like an explanation of what you guys consider in Bioshock "generic"(especially the guy above me. You quoted someone yet you probably don't know why they're calling generic?).

Hell my post got deleted :P oh well....
Isnt Bioshock 1 on the IGN game list thing?

I'm looking forward to it. Even if the gameplay is so-so, I'd get it just to experience the world of rapture. (that's what it's called right?)

I suppose, then again you're problably just another 'generic' gamer who has only recently heard of the game. I, however, have been following it since it was announced... I've seen the changes they've made to it and none were for the better. This game was going to be EPIC until the changed it.
And it does SEEM heavily scripted, atleast thats the way the developers show it off. Pretty much... Let's try to kill this guy...How? Okay, lets make this dude and this dude attack him, and whoops! We tripped the security alarm, now we have to hack it... Omg look at that fire it's spreading! Now we use the revolutionary system to make things STOP IN MIDAIR SO WE CAN THROW THEM BACK *crowd gasps* and there you have it. The big tough dude is dead and you're now free to molest the half dead 8 year old girl.

Insults? Where? You accuse me of ignorance, I accuse you of generacy... Only fair.
Btw - Using the term once is fine, using it more makes you sound like an idiot with a limited vocabulary.

Generic used in insult form. Playing dumb? Hardly.

Do you understand the term generic? Do you understand that ratings are purely opinionated and mostly biased. For all we know the developers were holding a knife to the reviewers ballsack threatening to neuter him if he didn't give it 10/10.
Anyways, most OTHER ratings were in the 9/10-ish category, which makes sense, but doesnt make it any less generic. The game isnt rated:
Generacy 0/10
Fun 10/10 so and so forth, its rated usually by graphics, sound, quality, value, gameplay or whatever...
Sadly if the game now scored 10/10, the original game would have scored 15/10
I'm looking forward to it.

08-06-2007, 03:37 PM
looks really great to me, it begs the question what will be played more come 08? (L4D not included since it will clearly be the big dog here) i guess the contenders would be
Bioshock
Halo3
Assasins Creed
GTA4 (although some one has posted its been delayed to 08 too, but
i aint sure)
please add games that u want yourselvs, but with those games on the shelf. . . what would u play most?

08-06-2007, 04:05 PM
I'm sure it will be some oh, 25 hours of fun.
Compared to the years I probably will enjoy L4D it feels a little bit silly doesn't it?

Irrelevant, he prefers a good online survival co-op rather than a generic under-water shooter.
