You don't play BioShock for the FPS action, though.

That's like reading Les Miserables for Victor Hugo's thoughts on the Parisian sewer system.

Hilarious, and it's nice to see a unpackaging of the Special Edition so everyone knows what they're ordering.

Great video, but can you get the art book seperately? I think it'd be awesome, but don't want to pay for all the other crap that it comes with (excluding the game, of course).
'pologies, but it'd cost you more to buy the game + art book than it would to buy the special edition in the first place, at least in regards to the PC. In the UK, the PC version is £30 with Special Edition hitting £40, and the chances are the book would cost £10+. Difference is £20 for console users I believe, might be £10 still, not sure.

I, too, thought this was serious. I'm sort of glad it's not, though. Would have just been one more thing I'd never be able to afford.

What do you say when you go to a lender for a loan to buy a videogame.
I will be willing to outsource him to you if you lower my interest rates?

The normal special edition SUCKS.

Soundtracks and posters and an art book.

WHEEE. Give me a figurine or something.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that it probably doesn't actually exist.
D-D-D-Dosen't... exist...
If they won't sell me one, I'll make one!
Volunteers?

I am sorry but dark messiah was far more engrossing due to its advanced game mechanics and AI(story/dailog is much worse than than BS's then again BS's is more sound bites and short hand than full B movie dailog that's offered in most shooter class games.....) BS is well...... a shallow art deco inspired action title that is just....... lacking..............the game is unfinished and incomplete and under developed when it ever comes out of beta and they fix the lack of a death mechanic,items every f r a k k ' i n where on all difficulty settings, wonky weapon balances, retarded AI that if it where not for the "water" and "health" scripts they'd be as bad as Jericho's "see it kill it before it dies" AI ...its not just a lousy shooter but a poorly made game out side of the art design and modlei...er... no the modeling sucks too due to the limits of the console focused 30 FPS cap which twitch's the frame rate randomly on some of the models.........(sigh if they only released a SDK it could have been the best thing ever.........sigh) Really to gaming its a travesty like the new star war eps are to sci fi films in general and star wars in particular. Sure its popular...but so is twilight and a bunch of other great for the genre they were trying to aim at but to me BS is below Alpha Prime,Nercovision, and even (god I can't believe I am saying this) Damnation.....


God I am teh game snob ><
I hate being old......


PS:sorry for rant..... I just refuse to take the watering down of a game lightly...you can water it down and yet still not rape it...its called options...... I don't see much of those anymore...not even for control and buttons.......
================
edit
uhg...late night ragging.....

ok damnation is not better than BS it only has 1 worthwhile gimmick but the rest of the game is crap, now alpha prime and necrovision were made is a more classic design style AP is more corridoor shooter than I like but its not that bad and necrovision is a fun lulz fest. I can ahndle small B or C class games being lulz fests but I can not stand it when the big name games are as bad..... also Cryostisis is a much better experience than BS.....

I want a Big Daddy!

I would hug him, and pet him, and love him, and call him George.

Hmm I don't think the uber addition exists.

But I think collectors editions are here to stay people, and by the look of this one, it seems the quality is getting much better.

Personally, I would much rather have a replica Big Daddy from the first Bioshock rather than B2
