About 50 minutes in they start talking about Bioshock and a few minutes before that he bags out Lair

"A.I. is phenomenal"

"It potentially will beat the poo out of everything out there and yes i am including Halo 3 and yes i am including Mass Effect"

"Even if you just straight stream through it, ignoring everything you could to just get through everything you can it could to just get through it as fast as you can it's going to take you easily, easily over 12 hours"

"It's is well over 20 hours if you are playing the game and have fun with it"

"Absolute show piece for the 360"

"There's also characters that are totally bizzare and cool you meet along the way"

"Once you pick up the controller and go into Rapture you will not want to put it down"

"Let me tell you what, the pacing, might be the best pacing in a FPS ever"

"There's so much to see, so much to do"

"You can play this game like a stealth game, you could play this game very Tom Clancyish"

"Not only is the conclusion satisfying but the lead up to the conclusion brings everything home very well"

And he also says the story is absolutely better than HL1 and 2

Bioshock is one of the "industry defining" games. This release in 11 days is going to be absolutely epic in proportion. This game will literally change the face of the FPS genre.

I've stopped watching videos because I cannot take the waiting any longer... its just so hard to... yet so close...

I hope it sells well. Its a pity when excellent games come along and sell poorly just because no-one has heard of them or their games before. I hope they put some money into a heavy advertising campaign.

From what I have seen of the game, it looks like it will be acclaimed as one of the greatest games ever made. Truly an epic masterpiece. 11 days seems like an eternity.

This is pretty much proof enough for me...GOTY will be this game if Mass Effect doesn't snatch the title.

Halo 3 will be great, but I don't think it'll even come close to the title compared to the other two.

Meh, I'd go as far as to call it the Game of the Generation... it all will depend on when Spore is released.

I've seen many videos of BioShock (including interviews), and I'm expecting this to be somewhere between good and great. Anything beyond that and I will be surprised. What I'm concerned about is the shooting. It's hard to explain... it's lacking satisfaction. But we will see when I get the game.

Mass Effect on the other hand... is just epic. I don't know how BioWare does it, but they did it with Kotor and they've done it again with Mass Effect !

Id have to say Half-Life 2 was one of my favorite games of all time, and I actually dident find the shooting that satisfying, that still dident stop me from absolutly loving it though.

Wouldn't it be because as far as PC games go it's not necessarily that impressive ? Just a thought.

I don't think there is anything more satisfying then lighting someone on fire and then when they go to douse the flames in water you hit the water with electricity and fry them.

Noooo!!! If the game has one little flaw it will be crucified because of you guys. I know it's hard but try to keep the hype down for this one, it will only make it more special when it's released.

Just because you can do that, it doesn't mean it's done properly to a point that I find satisfying...

I can imagine Sony fanboys claiming ownage if GS scores this sub AAA, similar to LoZ:TP. This is the most excited I've ever been for a game.

Just so you guys know... 1up talked about Zelda: TP as if it were god in a box and it got 8.8'd here (it got perfect 10's across the board there). Other than that... I say

HYPE THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF THIS TITLE BECAUSE IT WILL BE THE GREATEST FPS OF THE GENERATION!

just like TP is the greatest Action Adventure title so far this generation (imo). ;)

and Gamespot seems to really like it when the FPS genre gets a really good game. :D

Why would they? It's not a 360 exclusive anyways
