Members FastRedPonyCar Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 I'm seriously at a loss for words.. The scripting in this is obviously quite heavy but it's all in game and jaw dropping gorgeous atmosphere. [YOUTUBE]H0fDEA0BFSM[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pamackie Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 Looks so much better than the actual Bioshock 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sixtonoize Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 I saw a different preview vid a few days ago...I gotta say I'm pretty anxious to check it out. It's definitely piqued my interest a LOT harder than Bioshock2 did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoopQuantum Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 Gawd, I loved the original Bioshock. Sold all the game decks except the Wii (my daughters demanded I keep that one)...Video games just suck me in, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dolf Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 Bioshock II is one of the biggest video game disappointments I've ever experienced. It's an ok game, but it's such a letdown compared to the original. Hopefully the new one will have some redemption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the new one will have some redemption. I liked II when I was playing it, but I can't imagine revisiting it. Bioshock 1 on the other hand, I'm considering playing for a 3rd time in as many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TurboRotary13b Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 Bioshock 2 was done by a different group of developers. This Bioshock is done by the original team. It does look pretty bad ass. Does it look a little more cartoony to anyone else though? It might be because of the brighter overall theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zacman0126 Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 See I don't know why, I love FPS's and this one never hooked me. Seemed lame and poorly done when I played it. Maybe I just didn't give it a fair shot?...I think I played it for about half an hour or more. Just wasn't getting into it. Why is it such a good game to you guys? What sets it apart?

You decidedly did not give it a fair shot. Once you get a few good plasmids and weapons, the combinations of ways you can inflict violence on your enemies is astounding. It supports any play style. The complexity and depth of its story is unmatched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Seattle Doug Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 I think if you were really "speechless" you couldn't make this post. Or could you just write it, not speak it. I didn't really dig Bioshock... tried it. Too scary. Ha Ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members LaXu Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 It looks like they've finally managed to ditch the "oh all the good guys are just on the radio" crap. Unfortunately it seems that they've only moved to 100% scripted events. I mean if Half-Life 1 managed to have basic AI to run around with you occasionally it shouldn't be that hard to do. I never finished Bioshock 1 because I didn't like how everything in the world was hostile and the level design was rather poor. Can't say anything about level design here but I guess it won't be a particularly open world. There seems to be no AI to speak of for the enemies beyond "run towards you and try to kill you". The whole "oh they're all just gone mad" thing was a crap reasoning in BS 1 already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
