To the poster that initiated this thread: What do you mean, "is it too late to get Bioshock?" It was just released a couple of months ago, so I'm not really certain where you're coming from with that question.
Anyway, the sound and music are great. I love the big band era of music from the USA during the 1930s and 40s. The atmospheric sounds are convincing as well. All told, I love the overall atmosphere of Bioshock. The setting is pretty original for fps games.
My only gripe is that when it comes down to gameplay, it's just another fps where you kill zombies for the most part. You have your mana or magic here, renamed "plasmids". And you have your health bar. You run around killing mindless mutations and collect health and magic boosts. That's all the game is, when you come down to it.
Despite it's flaws, I'd still purchase it if I were you. Especially if it's going on sale at Bestbuy.
