BioShock

[SHUT_EM_DOWN_[JONES]]

Has anyone purchased this game yet for either PC or Xbox360 or even just tried out the PC demo? If so, do you think it lives up to the hype?

I have downloaded it from work and I will be taking it home with me on a flash drive to try it out later today. If the demo is good enough, I will spend the $50 for it.

Great game. Already beat it.

 

[EDITThor]

I have the demo and I love it!

I got to shoot lightning at a group of people who were swimming and they all got electracuted.

It definitely lives up to the hype!

 

[Death]

yeah i got it...but my comp is bearly able to run it

 

[i have no life [DAM]]

i'll wait for it the cost to go down, good game or not, i don't have $50 to spend.

 

[Baron Rojo]

i have the demo for the 360 and goin to BUY IT NOW!!

 

[Wal-Mart Security]

Im going to download the demo tonight when im sleeping....if its good enough, I think i might buy it

 

[Munch]

i got the demo, it is seriously awesome. i can barely run it but it is tons of fun.

 

[RoM - [TR]]

the only reason that i'm not gonna get it is: DOESN'T HAVE MP!!! HEAR ME 2K GAMES! why wouldn't you make a multiplayer thing? it would be the sweetest mp game after hl2dm dods and tf2(hopefully its gonna worth waiting 8 years)

i think dyematrix spent an all nighter and until right now 4:50 PST playing bioshock, cause i left xfire last night with him playing, and saw him playing until now...

Because not every game needs multiplayer. Adding multiplayer to the game would just suck resources (be it money, workers, or whatever) away from working on the singleplayer, leaving you with a diluted experience on both accounts. Developers should not feel required to shoehorn multiplayer into every single game just to get sales.

It really that good? You should tell me how it is so I can check it out.

I wrote a review on it a day after it came out on this forum. I pretty much gave it a near perfect score. Amazing game, totally rekindled my faith in the dying FPS experience. To be honest, even HL2 didn't really suck me in, even if it did have a few fun levels. STALKER was probably the closest before BioShock, and even it had it's flaws..

BioShock is by far one of the best games that I have ever played - a definite must have.

Maybe since they realized that everyone would be playing Day of Defeat online, they saw no point in doing so.
