Bioshock looks pretty ugly, at least by today's standards.

I didn't know a lot of people in SW hated Bioshock, LOL, it is true that most AAA games get hate here.

It's sad to see Games & Developers getting bashed here after the Game by said Devs getting AAA.

*Sigh* So much unneeded hate from some people.

It's funny how we rely on their opinions when it comes to reviews and end up relying on our own when the game doesn't live up to the score.

Yeah. I can accept people saying that they didn't like Bioshock (As long as they don't make their Opinion the law), but to say that it's Down-Right UGLY?! Just no.

lol wtf some1 post him a high resbioshock pic plz. Today standards are same as in 07 (crysis) and look wut we r getting in 09 (The Conduit). Bioshock looks great that why 2K is not even upgrading its engine for Bio2

Bioshock does look great. People are now acting like... well I can't even say one of the "i" words without a modding. They are slightly improving the graphics and animationsBTW. I am too lazy to dig up good shots of Bioshock. I am sure someone will.

I never really played it, but I should, I have time before Bioshock 2. And yeah, that is hypocritical, this place confuses me sometimes, then again, it's like that on other sites.:P

[QUOTE="Yandere"]

Calling B:AA the "Bioshock of 2009" just makes my view on it worse.

I agree. I didnt like Bioshock at all really. Its completely overrated, and is a completely different genre than B:AA, which makes the comparison useless. Ill give Batman more of a chance, and not compare it to a crap game.

Comparison isn't really that useless. Both games have a strong sense of atmosphere for their respective genres. Where Bioshock excelled in pushing the dark brooding atmosphere for the FPS genre, Arkham Asylum does the same for the beat-em up genre.

Chronicles of Riddick has more in common with it, the only thing it has in common with Bioshock is having an immersive environment, Bioshock was crappy apart from that, whereas B:AA seems to be really fun, like CoR

...and just like that, I can't take you seriously.

"Pretend to like"? That's pathetic of you to say that.

"Overrated System Shock 2 Rip-Off"? Most Games (Thankfully) use old Game Formulas because they WORK. Did you want Bioshock to be a Platformer Game so that it wouldn't be a "Rip-Off"?

It was good (8 for me). The Shooting felt right and the objectives were varied. But the story was Crap (But it wasn't enough to make me turn the Game off).

P.S. Why was Carrington wearing a Kilt?!

Nein! Buy it new for a few dollars more so that the devs actually get the money that you used to purchase the game that they made.

He's Scottish, though it doesn't make sense to wear that doing operations. And I'm glad you liked it, it has bots for multiplayer so you can play the multiplayer by yourself, but if you're connected to Live, install a patch for bot support in the Dark Ops modes.

I knew that he was Scottish from the Get-Go (His accent gave it away in PDZ & PD), so I didn't need him to wear a Stupid Kilt to tell us that he's Scottish.

Oh, and having the Main Villain look like a Stereotypical Ancient Chinese Old Man (With the Robe, cane, and 'Stache) when his name CLEARLY gave away the fact that he's Chinese.

Rare did a Pathetic job with the Story.

Batman Arkham Asylum will be a waste of money, I can tell by playing the demo. Don't say: "But you didn't play the full version!"

The game is too linear and the combat is repetitive button mashing.

[QUOTE="aaronmullan"][QUOTE="SparkyProtocol"] Not a very compelling reply. I could bring up a very offensive example of how... not smart that reply would be in alot of situations, but it will definetly brake TOS.SparkyProtocol

Do you mean something like murder? Because we're talking about video games..

No like "Why do you hate a certain race of people and feel that yours is superior?" Ignorant Racist: Because I have my opinions. It needs a compelling argument. :|

Err, I'm pretty sure there is a BIG ol' difference between racism and video games.

So that means we can expect a lenghty campaign, good story, awesome atmosphere and scenery, good graphics and sound. Wow, sounds great!

GeoffZak
You didn't play the full version. People that have played more parts of the game said that the button mashing stuff gets a lot harder as you progress and as you get new moves. Also later enemies can actually block your attacks. You actually have to know what you are pressing to be successful in the later levels. You played the first couple missions in the game so of course they are going to be linear as they get you used to the controls. Maybe you should read more about the "full game experience" from people that have been able to play it rather than judging it on a demo that is 1% of the entire game.

Bioshock was a damn good game, best of 07 (besides maybe CoD4, although its a bit overrated).I don't think Batman can live up to that, but it still looks fun.

Why couln't they make the Main Villain look more "Business" like when he's the CEO of dataDyne?

Same for Carrington.
