E3 2K7- best. e3. ever.

Saying you cant find animaton in Japan is like saying you cant find food in Italy. Its simply not true.

So, for the lamers out there without a 360, Live, or are fake gamers, share with us a little bit about the demo, gameplay dynamics shown, graphics, sound, AI, and what makes it so amazing?

Impressions!

Wow. The immersion and realism is apparent more so than any other game I've played. The graphics are easily the best I've seen in a shooter, period. The atmosphere. It's hard to describe, but its incredible. All the things that you've heard the developers say about it are true. No hype. No PR bullshit. It's all true.

But the water in the opening sequence (and the opening sequence itself for that matter) has to be one the most impressive things I've seen an FPS. And then there's the fire! It's very cinematic, even though you can turn away from the action, you can't escape from witnessing its cinematic presence.

There is a segment where you come upon a grieving mother, and you know she's there to kill you, but she isn't attacking. And you really feel emotionally responsible for your actions. There's a twist to this encounter. I hope you're surprised!

The menu system is very easy. I was worried about this game being overly complex due to the amount of things you can do, but its so simple and fun to use (unless you've never played a game before ). The plasmids don't make the game easier. It's going to be challenging no matter what you're equipped with. I used the the elctro bolt quite a bit. Its excellent for surprising enemies in a pool of water.

The melee combat feels a little bit like Condemned, but not quite as visceral. Not quite as hard either, which based on the numbers of enemies you encounter is a good thing. It fits the gameplay very well, and you'll probably rely on it quite a bit to conserve ammo.

Hacking security bots is one thing I could not grasp, but for $10 you can have it automatically done. I had two of them following me, and I probably would've died if I hadn't.

Overall, I've got to say, I'm impressed with the demo. It's probably the most well thought out demo I've played in ages. It can be very short depending on how you approach it. I looked around and found items and power ups just to look around.

I won't type long so take it as you wish.

I won't be buying this game, because I need to save money for 2 other games for PS3 next month.

However, the game was awesome, dark and VERY creepy.

The beginning scared the shit out of me for some reason, and that is very good, although its 9 o clock in the morning here where I live.

I think it's a very great option they made to make things you can pick up or switch and what not, glow for you and make it very "automatic" for oyu to pick them up, not like Oblivion.

The menu was easy to use for sure, I thought it was going to be tons of tabs and menu for selecting stuff, but this really is easy to use, don't need to be a expert to go from gun/melee to Plasmids.

The atmosphere was awesome, loved the art deco 60's, and I liked how when something have been occured you get some sort of a backstory like tapes of their voices recorded "live" through that event.

the visuals are amazing at some locations, the textures and everything else for that matter. Some parts had flaws but what game don't event the greatest ones.

The music, well it was a bit hard to listen to the music, but I do know this, by the videos, trailers from BioShock, Gary Schyman made a very great job on the soundtrack, has a LOST feeling,

Speaking of LOST that is exactly what I felt in the first place when your plane crashes in the ocean, but the rest is not gonna be spoiled.

Overall it's an awesome game for sure, and I for some reason want to know what happens to Rapture in the end.

Likewise. I give up. I've deleted the data and resumed three times already--which there's not much of an excuse for that seeming to work at all--but it does. But regardless, this last attempt stalled out once again, this time at 50%. It got to 50% in 10 minutes--and then stopped.

Yay. XBL FTW. :(

Hope the shittiness represented by peoples download problems with live doesn't leave a bad taste in their mouth when they're playing the game--because this certainly isn't Bioshock's fault.

Curious, what games? From your praise and all the GotY talk (from reviewers, not just gamers) I am curious what PS3 titles have you more excited? I can probably guess HS, but what is the other?

Well these are the kind of games I like more, so don't hate :(
Lair and Heavenly Sword.

I am happy for it that BioShock is keep getting amazing reviews, and it is most definitely worth the praise, even I admit I like it a lot, but I rather save the money for the games that are on my "must buy" list and the reason why I both 360 and Ps3 from the beginning.
