Bioshock is going to embarrass Halo 3. I'm sure all the Halo fans will cry and whine that the multi-player makes Halo 3 sooo much better but Halo 3 multiplayer is going to be embarrassed this year by Team Fortress 2.

Sorry Halo fans, Bioshock pwned your game.

Rebel108

who the hell are you, judging a game before you even played it? Bioshock and Halo 3 are both sweet games, and you are pwning yourself for not buying halo 3. Watch halo 3 score higher than bioshock.

thanks for contradicting yourself.

[QUOTE="kevy619"]of course it did, alot of people are getting hyped about the wrong games. Killzone 2 & COD4 are examples of games that dont deserve to be getting more hype than Bioshock.Shrapnel99

Might I ask what the heck is wrong with COD 4?

Just that its in no way a GOTY contender.

You haven't played it, so your statement is worthless. :|

If Call Of Duty 4 is GOTY, Ill be the first to admit im wrong...

Embarass Halo 3? Not going to happen, it might be a better game but it isnt going to make Halo 3 just go away. Halo 3 will still be the same AAA game that it was going to be.

And that is the only game they ever gave a 10. They came under fire for that too, even added an 11 to their scoring system.

I always thought that the game looked impressive but it has a forebodding aura around it for me, you know, i just get the feeling that i am not going to enjoy it.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised it this gets GotY. I am not a person that thinks just because i am not interested in a game means that it is going to be bad.

Blur Dragon for me i guess. that is a game i am posative that is going to be great imo.

Bioshock get 10/10 in OXM UK

-Inconceivably great plot
-Tough, scary combat
-Perfect location design
-Stunning soundtrack and audio effects
-Endless variety of weaponry

..BioShock is a novel compressed into a first-person shooter. It manages to be both a tricky, exciting action game, a fascinating creation of an enclosed world and a deep enquiry about what it means to be human - a trick most action movies and books fail to achieve. It also plays with you at every stage, confounding your expectations and your control over events repeatedly, from your control over your weapons, Plasmids, plot, self...

And this is where we have to stop ourselves - we don't want to spoilt it. What we can tell you is you'll be playing this game for months to come, exchanging story elements to build up the bigger picture, and arguing about what it all means. Come, join the argument, play the impossible game.

Also 95% in PC Gamer. Cant wait to get my hands on this game.

Radiozo

^^^This should be no surprise to anyone who has played either System Shock (theseries that Bioshock is the "spiritual sequel" to).

But really... any one who has said in this thread that they will have a hard time waiting for Bioshock, pick up a cheap copy of System Shock 2 for their PC, you won't regret. And just about any PC today should be able to play it.

I actually played the beta and based off the beta it's already a great game. But, seeing as to how they are adding so many new things (forge, weapons, vehicles) it will be way better than just the beta. I'm judging halo 3 from what i've played. The beta alone was better than glitchy laggy gears. You are going to be embarassed by dissing halo 3.

Guys, all I know is that the PS3 will be missing both Halo 3 and Bioshock so us Xbox 360 gamers should be happy.

Giving a game a 10 means it shouldnt let you down in any category. And since Ive been hyped for BioShock and waiting for it to come out for some time, I imagine I might be a bit let down. That being said, ive got it preorder and Im sure its going to be pretty sweet.

Really? You don't say. Official Xbox Magazine giving one of M$'s most hyped exclusives a 10/10? I'm shocked. Don't get me wrong, I'm as stoked aboot Bioshock as much as any 360 exclusive right now but c'mon, do you really expect a fair review out of OXM. Next up, M$ says the 360 is the greatest invention in the history of the world... wha red light... well y'know things break.bubnux

umm, oxm isnt as biased as psm (killzone a 9...yeah, theregoes their credibility)or nintendo power, they gave some 360 games lower ratings than 1up,egm and gamespot. theyre not the best, but certainly not the worst

OXM Magazine isn't funded by Microsoft and their reviews have always seemed pretty unbiased to me and on par with most other magazines in most cases.

I've wanted Bioshock ever since I saw the first trailer. It wasn't even gameplay footage. It was aCG movie a minute or so long.

Got the Limited Edition pre-ordered. Might do a Cartman and freeze myself until release date.

The controls and gameplay are perfect after playing the multiplayer beta? That's how you feel about it but it doesn't mean it's true. I found the controls to be okay for a console FPS but that in itself means they are imperfect and the gameplay is SLOW. Wait till Unreal 3 comes out and you will see how an FPS can move without feeling like you are running in water. Halo has always been average at best as an FPS, a lot of people like it because it is so easy to feel like you are good at the game. Those same people who are good at Halo would get dominated in Unreal Tournament, Quake, Battlefield, Counter Strike, etc. (unless of course they also play those games a lot.)

Bioshock will have a stronger story, better setting, more dynamic gameplay, and way better graphics. So Halo 3 has a standard online mode that has been out for how many years now? Wow, can't wait to capture one more flag in updated but still sub-par graphics.

So of course I haven't played Bioshock yet but that's fine, let's wait and see how the games review and what awards they get. Bioshock will get all the accolades and Halo will get all the suckers buying it. Years from now people will be talking about Bioshock and Halo 3 will be the Contra 3 of the Contra series, a cool game no doubt but nothing special.

Again, Bioshock will embarrass Halo 3. I say embarass because this is supposed to be Halo's year but all these games (Bioshock, Mass Effect, UT3, GTA4, Mario Galaxy) are going to come out with better quality and care and expose Halo for the mediocre game it is.

This just recertifiesthat despite the 360's hardware problems, it sure doesn't dissapoint in the game department. It's so funny how so many Sony fanboys keep bashing this game because they can't get a taste of it on the PS3. This game sure makes me happy that I'man Xbox 360 owner. Can't wait as this is a must buy title! :)
