Oh my god, why is this game so much fun. Post may contain minor spoilers, but I figure you guys are all further ahead of me.

It wasn't too slow paced before Arcadia, but that shit sure picked up when you got there. I was at the part where you have to deploy the Lazerus Vector, so I brought along a Big Daddy since I figured I'd get rushed when I did so. Sure enough, hoards of fucking splicers started running in, and since I had hacked the shit out of the camera and turret it ended up being myself, a BD and security bots all running around trying to hold 'em off.

It was easy at first since with the BD all you have to do is spray and pray with the machine gun to tag the enemies you want it to decimate, but about halfway through another BD came in and engaged in an epic Big Daddy battle with mine after it opened fire too close to it. I had to put em both down since I shot mine by accident while trying to help it, but that shit was the most epic scene I've played in a while. There was so much going on it was ridiculous. I was lucky as hell to survive.

The funny thing is I wasn't even hyped for this game even while playing the demo, but after picking up the full version I just can't put it down.

How ya doing, buddy?

I don't know, the radial it brings up on the 360 isn't bad at all. Freezes the game while you're selecting so you can get an up close and personal shot with the camera and then swap to the shotgun and put splicers down before they can even touch you.

Speaking of which, fully upgraded Shotgun FOR THE WIN. I haven't had this much fun with the shotgun since Gears. =D

How ya doing, buddy?

So I guess if it's the same on the PC then it isn't better than on the 360, huh. Get out IGN.

Also lol easymode. It only works when you're doing a one on one. During a rush there's a lot greater chance you'll get beat around if you focus on one.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Its a shame Brawl, Crysis and Galaxy are out much later in the year..
It's a shame none of them will be better than Bioshock. Only things that could possibly even dethrone it at this point are Ace Combat 6 and Halo 3.

I like how the game really picks up paces after Arcadia. The fetch quest before Ryan was kind of distracting, but overall things have really gotten amped up.

Spoiler:
The part where you had to get Lot 192 before your health ran down was cool. I wanted to explore the whole area so much but I had to sacrifice some rooms and go straight in. I did manage to take down both Big Daddies though, even with lower health.

And now I want my fucking plasmids back. ;_; I feel naked without them.


How ya doing, buddy?

I think this whole debate can be solved easily.

Who the fuck even plays PC games anymore. Get a 360 or get out.

Can we go back to discussing the damn game already rather than having a 10 page debate about EULAs and Root kits.

Just made it to Point Prometheus today, was lolling so bad at the first encounter. I'll probably backtrack after I finish the side quest. I skipped half of Heaphestus since I found out how to make the bomb early and didn't need to go to Heat Loss Monitoring.

I was speaking idiomatically.

It wouldn't take long. There's only about what, 3 worthwhile PC games worth porting (MechWarrior 4, MW4: Vengance, MW2). Keyboard and mouse, LOL.

Also, what Term and the other dude said. It's easy since the Big Daddies don't attack unless you shoot first, so you can trail them to your hearts content.

Most amazing jew boots

Loooool ultra bump. DLC and the Title Update are here! Most importantly, the added 100 point achievement has been revealed, and Vita Chambers can actually be turned off now (lol hardcore).

Updates Within, courtesy of The Cult of Rapture:

PC PATCH UPDATES, FIXES, AND FEATURES

XBOX 360 TITLE UPDATE FIXES AND FEATURES

- Increased Atlas’ volume in German
- Fix for GUI sounds not playing during heavy action
- Fix for not being able to take picture of Cobb in Rec
- Possible fix for pauses or hangs when opening flash bink movies
- Fix for switching difficulty breaking achievement
- Fix for small texture streaming bug

XBOX 360 DOWNLOADABLE CONTENT

- Added Disable Vita Chamber option
- Plasmid Pack is included in this DLC (Machine Buster 1 & 2, Vending Expert 1 & 2, Sonic Boom 1 & 2, EVE Saver)
- 100 point achievement for beating game without Vita Chamber called "Brass Balls"
How to do it:
Must beat game on Hard
Must not use a Vita Chamber (you can always roll back to an earlier save)
The Vita Chamber Disabled option can be on or off as long as you don’t resurrect


Seeing as how I played it through on Medium the first time and the only achievement I'm missing is the one for beating it on Hard, waiting worked in my favor. Definitely going to give Bioshock a second runthrough sometime this week.

FELIPE NO
