Prior to playing Mass Effect I had zero interest in the scifi genre, I can easily say that Mass Effect has fixed that. I thought the game was absolutely awesome. Didn't have much experience with Bioshock though, so I am not the best person to ask. I can say that Mass Effect 2 seems to be an infinitely better sequel than Bioshock 2 from what I've heard.

3 letters for Bioshock. 6 letters for Mass Effect.
Mass Shock is only 4/5, rather than 3/6.
close call i'm gona say ME1 though, just because if Bioshock one has been spoiled for you it hurts the whole story, but if ME1 has been spoiled it's not that bad. Me1 also gives you a lot more bang for your buck
I'd say download the bioshock demo to see if it will run on your computer, just to be safe. I'm not sure about a mass effect demo, but if you can run that it will give you more hours of play before you get bored.
Mass Effect 1 is a bad game in general. There is nothing fun about it at all. The only reason I played it is because of the story, the story is pretty good, and I wanted to check out 2 (which was great).
Bioshock had great story, and moderately good gameplay. It was more immersive, and held my interest outside of the story.
Neither have any replay value, but I certainly enjoyed Bioshock more than Mass Effect 1.
Really, I don't see why people liked Mass Effect 1 so much, it had a good story, kinda, sure if anything the only fun I had in ME1 was the codex. But the rest of it was like whiping sand paper in my eyes.

My avatar tells a thousand truths, play Mass Effect 1, then this sexy thing could be yours in Mass Effect 2.
I mean, you have an oppurtunity in Mass Effect 2 regardless, but starting the series as a whole is just so much more sweeter.

I personally loved Bioshock more. But I would say that you should go with Mass Effect.
There's more content, more to do, and it's a lot longer.

Mass Effect no effin competition most beleivable sci-fi epic since babylon 5 fun races, plenty of detail and love gave a new spin to the rpg genre piece of gaming history if you ask me.
Bioshock is a really weak System Shock clone not even close to being as good were I you pick up ME for pittence pre-owned, grab a torrent of System Shock and learn to use dos-box.
