Bioshock discussion topic

So I went into a store about an hour ago to check on Bioshock and just to look around, and my good friend who's a manager there, had me walk to the back with him. It was then that he handed me my copy of Bioshock and told me not to play more than three hours at a time because it'll fry your system. Needless to say, I'll be playing this till about 7 a.m. or so. :D
 
9.0 Review from GameSpot

The Good:
Absolutely amazing atmosphere and visual design with the technical prowess to back it all up. Lots of character customization options to play around with. Great voice cast really sells the storyline.

The Bad
Annoying hitches cause the game to freeze for a few seconds at a time, but it only seems to start happening after playing the game for several hours. Lack of death penalty keeps things fun, but also keeps things a little too easy.
 
Wait, so no possible death merits knocking a point off the total score? I never did think gamespot was particularly good...EGM ftw.

Well, I won't let Gamespot dampen my mood about this game. :D

Toys R Us leaked Bioshock out days ago. :lol

So I've spent around 3 and a half hours playing Bioshock. I can say everything in the demo is UNDERRATED! It doesn't even come close to all the stuff you can do. Hacking everything that's electronic. I'm talking vending machines to lower the prices of good, and medical stations to poison splicers and, even turrets and safes (which aren't electric). After facing the first boss, I can say I can't wait to come home from work tomorrow and put another several hours of game play in. It's so satisfying getting the achievements as well. There's 50 of them! :D

My brother owe's me $40...with that, I'll have enough to buy this..is it really worth spending $60 on if I can get it in 2 weeks for free?

Oh yes it is. Pick another game to get for free two weeks from now. :)
 
I don't know. It's only $10 cheaper. This game you can have in the morning, and it can keep you occupied until Metroid Prime 3 comes out for your birthday.
