Yes, yes it is. But I didnt get any replay value from it. Unlike Oblivion, which I am playing again because of you.
Bioshock is spectacular. I can't believe I waited this long to get it.

ing Oblivion makes me mad as . I went and beat the game, did almost all the sidequests, but none of the Thieves' Guild or Dark Brotherhood Quests so that I could get a high reputation to be able to buy all the houses. Now 150+ hours in, a freaking ring I have to steal in a Thieves' Guild quest doesn't spawn, and therefore I cannot advance at all in it.
Oblivion is the buggiest piece of I ever played.
360 or PC?
X360 (so no debug console to add the item)
Bioshock to me seems like it will have great replay value. For instance, going through the game while using all the different plasmids available. How much fun would the game be hypnotizing Big Daddies to fight all of your enemies (and each other)? I don't consider many even great FPS (such as RB6 Vegas, COD4, COD2, GOW) to have much replay value on SP campaigns, but the variety of ways kill and the different endings based on whether you save the Little Sisters seem to indicate this game will get at least another playthrough from me after I beat it the first time.
In my first play through that im doing now i have to get some khajit to give me the keys to a well in order to get a ring.
the topic never shows up on her conversation options, thus making the whole mission fubar. pissed me off.
OMFG, Bioshock just keeps getting better and better the further you get into it. So far, it's probably the best non-sports game I've played in 3 or 4 years.
"Would you, kindly..."
Oh yeah, theres some definite replay value. Bummer with Oblivion, though.X360 (so no debug console to add the item)

So I had this little game called "Mass Effect" sitting in my room, collecting dust (I probably need to dust more often). It's been there for a month or so unplayed. Anyway over the weekend I decided to give this game a whirl and I became instantly hooked. It's like crack, I would think. At first I thought it was alright during the first 20 minutes but once you start playing it, you just want to do everything in the game's universe. Everything is so well thought out and so well organized that you feel like you're a part of this world. You become fixated on the screen and before you know it, you have three or four hours under your belt.
Highly recommend it.
Mass Effect will end up being a trilogy, unfortunately EA bought Bioshock so God knows how far they will go to ruin an up and coming franchise
Bioshock relies on the quality of the story much moreso than any other FPS, and I don't think it can become a successful franchise because of that. I could see Bioshock having one truly great prequel on the strength of the character Andrew Ryan (his character single-handedly makes Bioshock a masterpiece), but the time period is way too short and the universe of Rapture is way too small for a third game.
I've read that Bioshock 2 is going to be about the fall of Rapture from being a once-Utopia, but what options are there for a third game? Helping Andrew Ryan clear out squids and sharks to make the city? Another plane-crash and some other unlucky bas ventures into the city? The Navy finds it and tries to invade? They all sound lame except for the prequel currently in planning, which has great potential.
You sir, would make great EA material with all that unoriginal thought there.
Have any other gems of brand-pros ution up your sleeve? We are watching.
note: funny thing is, youre probably dead on with all of them. It'll be Oceania with a BioShock sticker on the box.
So who is developing Bioshock then? Did EA buy Irrational, or are they just going to pawn it off on one of their own development groups? That's hilarious that EA would come crawling back to Bioshock after ting all over Irrational's bid to get them to publish it a couple of years back.
Bad news though if they did just take over the name. To quote Ken Levine (the lead man at Irrational/2k Boston), had EA agreed to publish Biohock it would have been "just a regular first-person shooter with a boss monster at the end."

The whole idea of Little Sisters as medics while Big Daddies go spraying each other in team deathmatch doesn't sound too interesting to me.
Maybe Irrational selling off the rights to the series was their way of giving EA the middle finger for not believing in the initial project. It's not going to do well as a cookie-cutter shooter, and maybe Irrational understood that it would suck as a franchise for the reasons I laid out above.
Anyone here have Call of Duty 4 for the PS3? I just recently got it and have been playing online a lot. Just looking to see if anyone here has it and is wanting to jump online and get an asskicking from the Reverend.
Bioshock will definitely get another playthrough, if only to see the ending if I harvest the Little Sisters instead of save them. Still, that playthrough won't come for a long time, as I have Orange Box and have only played (and beaten) Portal so far.
Whats everyone playing these days, Xbox360?
Devil May Cry 4, Orange Box, Gonna try Bully, and can't wait till Army of Two
Call of Duty 4, Sins of a Solar Empire, Crysis
How is DMC4?
Anyone try Frontlines?
any jrpgs fans in the house?
if so, how is lost odyssey...it looks a tad slow to my taste but im not sure... i havent played a good jrpg since tales of the abyss.
also cant wait for gta4....they better not delay it again.
Just finished bioshock (amazing ing game), and now I'm finally getting around to playing Rainbow 6/Las Vegas, that game has been fun as -can't wait for the next one coming out later this month.
The main game on my radar at this time is GTA IV in late April, that game looks to be REALLY good.
