Game Informer Gives Bioshock A Perfect 10

It's a damn shame that people are screaming "RENT DON'T BUY!" just because there's no online feature. If more and more people start adopting this mindset great games like Bioshock may start happening a lot less often, and more development time will be spent creating uninspired multiplayer. Not every games scenario works well in an online setting, and before Xbox Live was thought of, buying a game was just about how good the game was not how many hours it promised you.NumenDivinum

Rent =/= bad game.
Rent =/= no GOTY possible
Great game =/= wanting to play it over and over again

So, in this case rent could mean it's a great game, one of the better ones, but you might just not want to play it over and over again that a buy is needed?

Anyway, that's exactly what I meant when I told people they might want to rent it instead of buying it.
