Since most of you still finding game to run and finish it i have some story questions to be clarified, for those who have finished.

Spoiler:

1. How Atlas,ryan and other characters communicating with you in realtime(like codec calls). Is it explained in game?

2. Why ryan didn't realize it was his own child all along, and HOW later he came to know about the PHRASE , where at first he mistook the protagonist as CIA agent or someone else?
If he knew it all along , then why didnt he used the phrase earlier against us, or told us about our reality, if he was against atlas?

Those questions are blatantly stupid.

Maybe you should play the game with your eyes and ears open next time.

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

I just saw this on Kotaku about the widescreen "issue" with Bioshock.

http://kotaku.com/gaming/shortscreen...off-291697.php

It seems a game where graphics are so important to the mix would feature proper widescreen. It doesn't really bother me, even though I am gaming in widescreen (I can't tell).

On the other hand, had they of done it properly, would it then cut part of the content on 4:3 displays then, where the cropping would be done on the left and right?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

@Alai
Proper 16:9 (or 16:10) formatting is suppose to ADD more seeable area to the sides of a regular 4:3 formatted picture. However in Bioshock, instead of the 16:9 ADDING scenary it actually SUBTRACTS it by simply zooming into the 4:3 picture.

It's like when you have a fullscreen movie playing on a widescreen TV, and then you hit the zoom button to make the picture take up the entire widescreen. Which makes you loose parts above and below the original frame.



16:9

4:3


It's not a massive deal I suppose. But some dramatic framining of scenes are lost like the second comparisin due to this issue. Also you don't quite see the full animation of the hands which kind of sucks when you're not busy killing things.

This same issue also exists on the PC version aswell.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

god i'm so piss off at steam now. First I had to wait for the game to be release at 4pm and now the server are too busy to decrypt the game and even after that there's suppose to be another patch to download...

So far from pre-load now and play as soon as the game is release >.>

Yeah... that's what happens when you support something that's on "the cutting edge" there's always obsticales to overcome dispite how flawless the process is supposed to be.

Just wanted to add that the demo ran fine on my system with no issues. Played it in 720P, haven't tried a higher res yet.

Oh, well the questions are dumb and you're a fucking faggot for not buying the game. Try buying your game and we'll see about being nice to you.

QFT. Bioshock is one of the most own games of this year and pirating such a great game is pathetic.

Nevermind got the answers, second one is actually a flaw in story.
Its ironic that some people here at GFF rip OSTs and don't buy originals, but advice others to BUY original games and don't support backups.

Just because one downloads a game before release doesn't automatically mean that they're not going to buy it. I've downloaded many PC games in the past so the I could beat them before a crowded release week, but still buy the game.

I know that many who do download them don't buy them, but without Sexninja admitting to not buying it, you can't just start accusing him on baseless assumptions guys.

People get offended on trivial issues like this and specially i can't comprehend logics in this
'pirating such a great game is pathetic',

So it means you CAN pirate underrated, underhyped games?

Try buying your game and we'll see about being nice to you.
Remember, my post was actually for those who had finished the game.
First you buy the game form your 'just opened EB', then care about anything else.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Because we assume that the internet is full of good people. Especially those who complete a game by the release date. He's thinking "Why buy the game now that I've completed it?" I buy my games and I buy my software because I'm not a cocksucking greedy SOB.

No, it means that we know you can afford to shell out the cash for it and if its such a great game, you should respect the makers of it for their brilliance.

The only exception I've found is shit like Microsoft products that force you to overspend on operating systems and software for compatibility. Microsoft is the only software company I've ripped off and worst comes to worst, I use Linux.

@Lukage
I'm with ya there on the Microsoft products part. I have always hated their multiple SKU marketing. Ex VISTA 32bit and 64bit are seperate programs. So if you buy V32 and then 3 years later upgrade to V64 you have to buy the OS again. F*** that man, screw 'em.

@Free.User
Gonna have to agree with you too. Back when I downloaded Bet On Soldier... they should have had to pay me to play that POS. So yeah... didn't buy that one.

Also sometimes I have to download games to see if they'll work because they sometimes don't have demos. However even the ones that do, the final build can make a world of a difference. But when it comes to a game like BioShock... I'm afraid you have to support the guys who slaved over this one, they deserve it.

Many people here also don't dabble in videogame OST's, myself included. Plus, OST piracy is nowhere near as detrimental to the industry as actual gaming piracy; To think it is is pure asinine.

Also, for your future reference, A backup denotes the fact that you already own a copy of the game, which i'm sure you didn't when you downloaded it as it wasn't available for retail sale. Nice job at making yourself look like a twat.

Piracy is a huge reason why PC gaming has basically been pushed aside and developers have started to favor console gaming. Alot of you say you will buy the actual game just so you can save face, but many of you never ever actually go through with doing so and this logic has hurt PC gaming tremendously.

How ya doing, buddy?

back on topic

I just fight my first Daddy and god it was a rush! I was running as fast as I could to evade him, that was pretty scary XD lucky I had a lot of those piercing bullets XD

just in case, about those little sisters:

I'm a little too soft and decided to save the little sisters, but I'm still not sure if it was a good thing XD I wonder if I'll regret it later, the "prize" for saving them, better be damn good XD

@Lukage
If he got the game 3 days before it came out, then it's a 95% chance that it's a copy of the game for the 360 because I was searching high and low for a torrent of the PC version every day since I heard about the accidental early launch at some retailers, and the only one I found was going to take 21 days to download due to a slow source seeder. So once again, don't assume something you don't know for sure.

@Inhert
Yeah it was a pretty intense battle when I did it myself. Man does this game get hard later on though. So many factors and angles you get attacked from. The game definately is one of distractions, decoys, and using the enviroment to it's fullest... and save. (BOO YA! save anywhere feature just like the PC version, how SWEET!)

The Big Daddy becomes a very big joke once the shotgun upgrades and electrical shells start piling up.

Haven't got to an upgrade booth yet, and my shock shells are limited to about 6 per an encounter but yeah, I can see how that combo will be a distructive combo against a BD.
