So, i was wondering if it was worth spending money on Bioshock when it comes out, possibly the limited edition with the awesome figure. Negative/positive arguments would be good...thx in advance

Edit: Picture, looks damn awesome!

Negetives? It hasn't been released yet so it could still flop...HIGHLY HIGHLY doubt it tho. It's been reviewed twice, getting a 10 and 9.5.

Positives? How much time do you have? lol Lets see...it's the spiritual successor to one of the greatest games ever made (System Shock2), it's supposed to be a minimum of 30 hours long, stunning AI, weapon customization, amazing graphics, mindblowing physics, novel-like story, multiple ways to handle almost every situation...i could go on for days.

The lowest review so far (Out of 4 I believe) for the 360 is 100/100.

Does that help? :)

Pc's lowest is 95%.

I already pre-ordered and paid in full for my limited edition of Bioshock...it will be my first ever purchase of a limited edition. To me you get so much for your extra money and this is a game I've been waiting for, what seems like forever. The fact that it's coming out in about 2 weeks completely blows my mind...

If the music is good then the cd will be good to have as in game music can sometimes be very good, the only other limited editon I have considered (not got though) was lost planet as you got web graphics and things included but this is a great limited edtion to get I recon (saying that I havent ordered it, I cant decide whether to pay the extra £10 or not lol)

Nice picture, I can't wait for the game, I preordered the Limted Edition version for the figurine alone, that was before i saw that kick ass cloth poster and cool case, the soundtrack sounds like a cool extra also, this game will be great. :)

I find the Halo 3 Legendary edition funny...It's just me though. I'll never understand the infatuation with Halo...I also may be confused, but I swear that I remember when the Legendary edition was first announced that it was only $99...I don't know though...

It doesn't matter to me...I won't even be paying the $60 for the regular version...hmmm...I wonder if the publishing companies will start making Core/Pro/Elite versions of all their games. One for each system!...It makes perfect sense. I am a genius!!!...and in case anyone is wondering...I am, in fact, being sarcastic

I'm still not so sure about Bioshock myself. I have decided to buy it (mainly because I haven't played a good single player game in a while), but I've been avoiding any in depth information about the gameplay or story because I don't want to go into it with any preconceived ideas.

That big daddy thing is so bad ass :lol:

Anyway, I say go for it. If you want all that extra stuff, then buy the collectors or whatever, but I'm just going to get the regular edition. I've never bought a collectors/limited edition of a game and I'm never going to unless it comes with game content.

If there's a demo I'll try it but otherwise I most likely will not play the game. Maybe I'll get it for PC when it becomes cheap. And very slim maybe of renting it.

I just saw a leaked review from OXM UK and they gave the 360 version a perfect 10/10, I would post the link but then again I accidently pushed "dont allow" when my computer asked if I wanted to allow gamespot access to my clipboard. Sucks to be me.

I'm getting this game, it looks cool.

Does anyone know anything about the live aspect of the game, I mean, will it have a multiplayer mode or just a ranking mode like cndemned??
