MishoM Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Anyone picking up BioShock this Tuesday? Did anyone get it early at Toys "R" Us? I'm defiantly getting it after playing that demo, plus just about every review its getting is a "10/10"! Tons of people are even saying it could very well top Zelda: OoT as "greatest game ever". I wouldn't be surprised to be honest. Can't wait to play it! Who's getting it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Zelda was never the greatest game ever in the first place, as far as single player, that title is a tie between GTA and HL2. tbh the game never really looked appealing to me so I'm not even going to bother with it, but if you liked the demo then be sure to pick it up.

MrLlamaLlama Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Is this the game you can download via steam and play the minute it's released? I know the game will be great, but it's not worth lagging up my PC over. (pretty much the same reason i'm waiting to buy dark messiah, and HL2 Ep.1) t's rated really highly, so by all means give the demo / trailers a try. Is this a 360/PC exclusive? I think i remember it first being mentioned, to my knowledge in ap playstatio mag (not mine, a friends) But yeah.... The gameplay looks great, i would quote something from some viseo i saw to give an alternative duscussion point, but i don't remember anything.

tilly Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 i think the interface is a copy of hl2. it even has a manhack type machine, but instead of it killing you, it kills your enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you can download it via Steam and play "the minute its released". And its a PC/360 exclusive. On the cover of the box instead of saying "Only On Xbox 360" it says "Only On Xbox 360 & Windows".

Kitsune Inferno Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 I downloaded the demo. I almost shit my pants and I thought it was a good great game. I, however, will not be buying it. I don't have the money and there are other games I'd like to buy first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MishoM Posted August 19, 2007 Author Share Posted August 19, 2007 Would like to let anyone who is buying it know, Circuit City will have the game for $49.99 until August 25th so if your going to pick it up on the 360, make sure you get it from them and save $10.

Slayer Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 When I get back from vacation I'll do my best to get it. The trailer had an awesome atmosphere and the preview in games mag I've read looked very good. I didn't play the demo, but I'll be more than happy to try out the full version.

I don't have the money and there are other games I'd like to buy first. Pretty sure that's going to be Halo 3 But yeah the game looks pretty interesting. Might buy it eventually and will probably play it at some friends house to try it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just minding my own business, hitting lamps with a wrench, when some dude came up from behind and smacked with his lead pipe. I then commenced to spend the next three minutes bashing him with my wrench. I have problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artur Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I'm downloading the PC demo right now, looked at some gameplay footage and the game looks pretty damn fun. Can't wait to smack people in the head with a wrench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I'll probably pull down the 360 demo later tonight, if Saint's row doesn't take all night. Working on my SR skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the time i spent all of 12 minutes doing a burnout, in a firetruck on some dude's face in LCs because he mde me fail car salesman... git. Will probably get the demo some time, game looks awesome, but my cash is going to dark messiah, HL2, ep's 1&2, when relesed. Or a new pair of shoes. I'll download it just as my brother signs into XBL, just to lag up his games.... Then blame him for shitty d/l speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsune Inferno Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I never knew you could hack those flying fuckers with the machine guns! I spent a few minutes just shooting a few down with the machine gun. I almost died! Thank God I had an assload of health packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm not the only one who does stuff like that. In SA I usually just give 'em the purple 2 headed monster (LSPD showers) although I've been known to get a little carried away. How hard are the "Big Daddys" to take down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsune Inferno Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Hmm, considering what one of those things did to that one guy near the beginning of the demo/game, kinda hard I guess. But they won't mess with you as long as you don't mess with them or the Little Sisters. However, since fighting Big Daddies is inevitable, I suggest a machine gun to the head or converting them to your side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 That demo was fucking awesome, <3 shooting electricity at a splicer, beating them with the wrench, then stealing ADAM and EVE from their corpse. Also, there's this part where you're going up and you hear a mother singing a lullaby, but it's actually a splicer and her baby carriage actually has a magnum handgun in it . And the graphics are sick, and it runs smooth for me on max settings. Didn't like the setting/premise at first, but holy shit, good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Okay, so Big Daddy = Human(ish) Panzer, kinda figured. & I'll watch for that baby carriage. The graphics look GOOD in the commercials I've seen. Downloaded the demo off XBL last night (1.3 gig), probably play w/ it later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 The Xbox demo clearly has lower resolution textures or something. BTW, I don't know why so many people would rather get it on Xbox 360. FPS on console=baaaaaad. Very baaaaad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Depends... If you have a crappy PC like I have ATM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 So no target lock. Will a USB mouse work on an X360? I've been told a USB keyboard will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 IMO FPS's suck on consoles. It just doesn't work using a gamepad so a mouse would be great. But I doubt them working on a console for games though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I'm sure MS would be happy to sell you a proprietary X-Box 360 mouse, for a nominal fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a keyboard to boot (not that ugly thing on the bottom of the controller, either) Bioshock, still...down...loading.... at.... 19%... does steam still keep downloads active while you play games, it just doesn't seem to progress whilst i play HL2... Just breaking into nova prospekt. Those turrets are damn hard o hard mode, especially when you have sucky health like me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My PC sucks, I can't aim accurately without some presence of auto-aim, and I don't feel right using a keyboard and mouse. I heard the collector's edition comes with a Big Daddy figurine. Who wants to bet that every single one of those figurines will be broken as a cause of playing the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
