Bioshock/System Shock 3
- Thread starter Embryodead
- Start date
I'm thinking of downloading the demo of Bioshock for PC. It's not really a sequal to System Shock 3, but more of a spiritual sequal.
I still need to buy myself an Xbox 360, but I plan on getting it in the next few weeks. I've been looking forward to this game for a while.
when you play it you'll realize that it's basically System Shock 3 with a different story, the whole mechanics are exactly the same.
I downloaded the Bioshock demo for 360 yesterday and.....holy cow. I need this game. I'll probably pick up a copy later today.
To me, the demo gives off the impression that it's one of those games you enjoy for it's story and creepy vibes, not just the FPS action itself.

I played through the PC demo on Steam last night. It seemed like it would be a really great game. I'm going to try to pick it up soon.
You guys'll enjoy this.

Bioshock is TOO good. I'm buying an Xbox 360 just to play it (well, and Halo 3, and so many others as well)

I played the demo. It was pretty sweet, I just don't really have the extra money right now to but the actual game.
very hard for me to but a judge on them, something was just really creepy and messed up about System Shock 2. I'd say this is the System Shock 2 of this generation though. The story is top-notch the Diary entries (like the journal entries you picked up through out the game) add so much depth and story. Really if you liked SS2 get Bioshock all the best similarities are there but still keeps the game original.
My 15-yr-old got it yesterday. He's sitting next to me playing it, right now. Lots of gunfire, explosions, blood & guts, weird characters with funny voices, nasty slugs that you pull out of little kids, a narrator voice from an old-timey radio show. Something for everyone!
A few minutes ago, he was smacking himself upside the head. He was dissatisfied with his play. That's entertainment! *sigh*

Does it work with XP?
My dad has vista, I have XP, and his computer has better specs, but is still about twice as slow with no real feature upgrades.

What's so fun about the game ?
I'm walking, next thing I know my health bar is half full 'cause the guy shot me once or the guy is 83193 miles away from me and he jumps (those 83193 miles) and hits me once and get's my health bar half full... yeah..... what about the fact that I can't find ammo either..
maybe i just need to get further ?
