Official Bioshock Thread
Well, I thought I might as well start a thread on what may be one of the best games in history. The 360 demo was just too wonderful.
To start off, here's a link from someone in the Shacknews chat that works for 2K games. It is what would have been the art book in the LE edition had people not voted for that dang figurine:

Enjoy!
Big Daddy figurine >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> art book. It's 6 inches big for anyone who didn't already know, not some little pewter figure like from the Prey LE.Originally Posted by geneshifter
WOW with the Live demo released and no one talking I was starting to wonder
neo geo system
This is the greatest game EVAAAA....I need James Lipton to make this thread into a LIVE show!
These cartridges are dirty as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!
Yes, the figurine is bigger than the Prey ones but, oh, no way, I couldn't disagree more on it being better than an art book. I loves me a good art book based on my favorite video games
EDIT: Although, upon further reflection, it will make a good can opener using the drill bit hand.

I understand, but at least we get to view the art now anyways.Yes, the figurine is bigger than the Prey ones but, oh, no way, I couldn't disagree more on it being better than an art book. I loves me a good art book based on my favorite video games

I don't know my LEs pretty well, but getting a 6 inch figure with this LE is a personal first for me.
The first Big Daddy appearance is the new Resident Evil "dog through window" moment.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
I'm still in disbelief of how amazing this game looks. If the whole game is as good as the demo, the Game of the Year contest might as well be over.
This game looks awesome. Definitely a contender for game of the year.

agreed this game looks amazing, and plays well... I cannot wait for this one, anyone know how long this game is exclusive to the 360?

To be this great takes SEGA!!
It's not exclusive.
It's coming out on PC, same day as 360.
Ever since this game was announced, I knew it was going to claim several game of the year awards when it came out - there is no possible way in hell that this game is going to be anything less than amazing.
Absolutely amazing. One of the few demos I've played more than once probably ever. Picking this up day one.
All I have to say is...

I went through it 3 times yesterday, sucks though because a lot of time is wasted before you can do anything. But I love it, I'll go through it again later today.
From what I've seen so far in the demo, the art direction is an A+. I don't think I've ever seen such environmental detail in a video game (Resident Evil 4 is close).
All this talk of "game of the year" has some substance, but "best game ever"...not even close. At it's core, it's just a single player FPS. That alone bumps it out of the top 10 of all time IMO.
Anyway, I'm still buying this on day one. So far it's incredible and (obviously) the best looking game on the 360. The gameplay feels solid but I already was sick of panning the camera down to find items...that may get a little old as the game goes on. Hopefully this remains a minor issue.

I do see what you mean. A lot of people only put RPGs in their top ten for obvious reasons. But, I would put this in my top 5 along with another FPS, Quake 1. I still play that game all the time. The rest of my top 5 games include Sid Meier's Pirates! on C64, Civilization 2 and SMB. I also liked FF3 and 7 and Earthbound.
It's always hard to say that a game about to come out will be one of the best, and I am jumping the gun a bit (lol), but I'm more excited about this game than anything else in the past couple years. The demo only got me more excited.
This is a great year to be a gamer, isn't it? So many good games coming out this fall.
So true.

Very good comparison, it does feel like that moment again.
These cartridges are dirty as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!
I knew that, I mean is this comming out on ps3,

Yes. Game Informer broke the news several months ago. It apparently won't be coming out until 2008.
