This weekend I finished Bioshock. It's not the reason I haven't been blogging recently although I have to say that in the last week it's certainly one of the reasons. Bioshock has been, and is again as I am playing it through again, one of the most complete games experiences I've ever had. It's a gorgeously consistent world which wraps around a story where I not only sought out all the extra story material I could find to make the experience as complete as possible but felt invested in the characters and shocked when the story took unexpected turns.

It is also one of the few Xbox games I have wanted to play through after I've finished it to get all the achievements. I'm hoping to get a ton more before I get bored and move onto something else, I'm nearly at 700 which is just about a record for me and points from 360 games.

If you have access to a PC or 360 at the least treat yourself to the demo. It's nearly a 2gig download on the PC but it's absolutely worth it, I promise :)

Hey there Bork. I have to admit that I didn't really know what I was getting into when I bought BioShock. I knew that I didn't even think about the $60 that I was spending because from all the pics and the information I had seen and heard for the past year or so, I was convinced during their initial development stage. I haven't finished it yet (I just got to Prometheus Point) but I have to admit that I thought the game was gonna end in the previous level (NO SPOILERS HERE.. HEHHEH..).. My point is that this game has blown me away. The attention to detail with regards to something as trivial as water or the flames on a burning Rosie when hit by the Incendiary Bolts from the Crossbow... simple things like this make me care about the game, its characters, and the environment that you've been thrown into. I don't want to sit here and detail the game, but I am excited about playing through a second time for the aforementioned gamerscore points on the 360. I got most of them so far, but looks like I will certainly have to play through a second time to get it done right. Great game overall and the best I've played in 2007, joining the ranks of Darkness, Lost Planet, Gears (still rocks) and even Godfather. I agree with you wholeheartedly and look forward to more games from Irrational ===> 2K Boston & 2K Australia.
