Unfortunately, it's not a rootkit. It doesn't hide itself, it doesn't even install itself at the OS level. It's no more of a rootkit than MacAfee.
From here:
Spoiler:
I do have to admit that BioShock is the best game I have played in a LONG time. The story, the gameplay, everything is so well put together that it practically MAKES you play it in large chunks because you want to know what happens next! Jam it back in, in the dark.  |

 On a related note, why is it that there are always people that come out when any game that gets universal praise from a wide variety of gamers and game sites comes along and goes "No seriously, this game is terrible, because it's derivative and boring and the graphics aren't anything special", even when if you use your brain that's clearly not the case? Hey guys, BioShock is way too similar in gameplay to Wolfenstein 3D, I mean shit, it's in and you shoot things and you can even use a melee attack! And the story is about the downfall of a society led by a warped guy who has mutants serving him in a huge self-contained dungeon! They totally ripped off the story from Wolfenstein. Wow, that was actually quite possibly ammunition for the people I'm trying to parody. There's nowhere I can't reach. |

What the fuck gave you the notion that you needed to step in and get on a high horse about "why do you not let people have opinions omg"? Oh wait, it's because you're still butthurt over other people yelling at you earlier in the thread, and you're now taking it out on me for some reason, as if my post was designed to call you out, which it wasn't. My entire issue is with people going into threads DEDICATED to the game and derailing a conversation by not saying "I think the game is flawed" but saying "I think this game is TERRIBLE."
You never hear these people come in and talk about a game that isn't getting major hype and major reviews and pick it apart in the same way. These people don't come in and go "I don't like this game, but I can see why others do." They instead come in and go "I know everyone else in the world likes this game, therefore I'm going to find reasons not to like it just to be different." And then they proceed to tell us about those reasons, ad nauseam, even when people point out that half of their points are either wrong or a result of tunnelvision specifically LOOKING FOR bad things. Yes, BioShock's save system makes the game easy. That's one of the main complaints I see. However, it allows ANYONE to experience the well-executed and dense narrative. If you were spending half your time worrying about dying, you wouldn't want to pay attention to the story. But talk to some people, and they'll say "I think the game is too easy, therefore there's no reason to play it and you are all idiots for wanting to play it." As for your crusade to somehow pull yourself out from the hole you've dug... it's just badly done so no comment. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
