Bioshock, already AAA, possibly AAAA????!!!

Ill admit, when I first saw the trailers for Bioshock, I wasnt too impressed. Looked average if that, and Ill also admit im a heavy 360 fanboy, but it just looked....boring to me. But since its release into the gaming world merely a few days ago, its recieved some of the most prestigious reviews Ive seen in the past several years. Heres a roundup of just some of the reviews:

OXM (uk) 100/100

Eurogamer 10/10

GAMEINFORMER 10/10

GAmetap 10/10

1UP 10/10

Games Radar 10/10

Gamepro 5/5

Gamespy 5/5

UGO.com A

IGN 9.7/10

Team Xbox 9.5/10

PS gamer 9.5/10

Xbox world 9.4/10

Thats an avreage of 98%! This game obviously has AAA without a doubt,and its even on the brink of AAAA, game of the year contender?Halo 3 had better watch out, this looks to be the start of an amazing 360 holiday lineup. So what do you Cows have for this holiday season that can rival that? Or Halo 3, or Mass Effect for that matter?

I don't see 10.0 coming from GS....but the new rating system will give it a better chance I think.

Kind of strange that the lowest scores are Xbox affiliated.

Heavenly Sword is equaly impressive as bioshock but lemmings cant see thatmattyomo99

No, no, no. Ugh.

No its not and this is coming from a cow. Heavenly sword has great graphics but the gameplay sucks.

No it's not. :lol: is it revolutionizing the hack n slash genre like bioshock is doingto the fps genre? That's what i thought.

Looks like a standard hack and slash from what i've seen

Bioshock is bringing in a much more immersive and usable enviroment to a genre which is usually pretty static

Go play the demo. You will see that it is a middle 8 game at best.

Please don't compare HS with BioShock. It's just ownage waiting to happen.

I don't think it would be right for them to give it an AAAA, considering it's possible to beat the game in 20 hours or so. There is said to be good replay value, and the possibility of the game being longer if you look in every corner... but not everybody's idea of fun in a video game is to look around for notes and stuff to read.

I'm expecting a 9.5... if not, a 9.0. The next guess would be 10.0, followed by 8.5.

From what I have been reading, there are two endings so you will probably want to go through twice, meaning it would be a 40+ hour experience.
