BioShock (Limited Edition) (Xbox 360, 2007)

For ten extra dollars you can have BioShock the limited Edition. The limited addition comes with the Making of BioShock DVD and a special packaging with original art and Tin Case. The BioShock LE will come with the game's soundtrack and a figurine of a Big Daddy, one of the game's popular characters.

BioShock could easy be seen to as an unofficially squeal the System Shock 2. After your plane crashes into icy uncharted waters, you discover a rusted bathysphere. a spherical deep-sea diving submersible which is lowered into bodies of water with a cable. You then descend into Rapture, a city hidden city beneath the sea. Constructed as an idealistic society for a hand picked group of scientists, artists and industrialists. The idealism is no more most of the people are dead or change in to some genetic altered creature. The once great city is now the city of the dead. BioShock is a unique game that mixes a spine chilling sound and music. Sounds of or random half crazy former Rapture citizen chanting, or footsteps of something approaching can be heard ad over all realism effect to a city that is nearly dead. The well design architecture levels are free for you to explore. But most of the time your to busy try to survive as you repeatedly slice your DNA to become more a powerful killing machine to stay alive. A sci-fi theme of biogenetic mutation and self-modification, along with a deep storyline with open-choice along with the freedom to interact with the world as you choose. This unique first-person action shooter requires you to think every time you pull the trigger similar to System Shock 2 which is still hail by many as one of the greatest game of all time. Bioshock holds many similar to System Shock 2 as varies types effect for each weapon, spooky atmosphere, hacking system and superior story line. System shock 2 was a master piece and that not a statement to take lightly. BioShock can also easily be seen as a master piece as well. Bioshock is like a quest of self discovery as you can choose to kill or not to kill little girls for unlimited power. Work against the moral consequences to obtain power or rescue the little girls know as sisters. The implications of the decision to intentionally murdering a ten-year-old girl for your own personal gain cannot be overstated, and BioShock will never let you forget what you've become whether it be savior or heartless super human bastard. Forced to survive in a a hidden city littered with corpses of the dead. Powerful guardians roam the corridors as little girls loot the dead, and genetically mutated citizens ambush you at every turn. Be warned, this game contains game contains Blood and Gore, Drug Reference, Intense Violence, Sexual Themes, Strong Language. I recommend for Mature audience. Besides it may scary some kids to death.

Buy this game and love it, undoubtedly playing through it at least two or four times. There is a huge variety of choices you can make coupled with the genuine consequences that follow require numerous play throughs just so you can see what happens if you try something different. The game is rather short. It takes around 25 hours to complete more or less depending what you do. You may just be looking around being amazed by the art, sea life, under water effects and detail and all it's haunting artistic glory.

Put simply, BioShock is an unparalleled achievement. No other game comes even remotely close to it in terms of raw emotional connection.

If your a fan of of the System Shock series or just FPS's in general; especially those with a moody, dark, or goth atmosphere then this title is just what the doctor ordered. Plenty of actual content in this game rather then just simply point and shoot your way through the levels (although with some cheats you can do that too!). Three possible endings depending on how many big sisters you whack throughout the game. I've had friends tell me they actually felt bad about killing them...that is just how much this game can get into your psych if you let it! Fully immerse yourself in 2007's Game of the Year, and get yourself a descent set of headphones or a real surround system to fully enjoy this game....oh and don't forget to turn off the lights ;) Best game to hit the genre in a very long time; come see the future of gaming now.....Rapture awaits your descent.

This is one of the best games I have ever played. Even though it came out when almost every single game included multiplayer, this game still made a huge impact without it. The game is very unique and original all around. If you like different style and freaky games give this one a try.

Bioshock is one of the best games that I have ever played. The whole game is an amazing expirence, Bioshock level design is one of the best. Environments are just amazing from the water to the plants to even all of the gore and blood. The term weapons has a whole new meaning in the world of Rapture. Guns are not just the only thing that you can use to despose of enemys, you use your plasmids and your environment with the plasmids that you have. If you love FPS, and RPGs you will love Bioshock.

Welcome to Rapture. A place of wonder and horror. Bioshock is a great first person shooter and I can't wait for the second installment in the Fall of 2009! Buy this game!
