Yeah, who didn't see that coming?
So now that it's over, I can finally talk about serious matters: Today, I got around to playing the original Bioshock for the first time. 20 minutes in and I can already tell this game is seriously special. |

So, Garrus. You're a good authority on this. Is Bioshock about Mass Effect quality? It doesn't seem like it'll be a character-based game at all, so I won't be forging completely fabricated yet wonderfully endearing friendships (that may or may not have caused a few tears to be shed and deep rage to emanate) with epic characters like Mordin or Garrus, but can it compete with it on the whole? It's a damn atmospheric game. I've been fucking spooked for most of the brief time I've played it. The Mass Effect series is the most impressive thing I've personally ever seen in gaming, and by some distance, so it's my go-to comparison for the really special ones I come across. Bioshock on par? *I want to know just what I'm getting into and how much of my life for the next few weeks will revolve solely around this* |

First off, add me on PS3.
It's nothing like Mass Effect but the quality of it is on par. There will be moments that will be disgustingly beautiful, and one of my favorite moments of gaming is at the heart of this. Character wise, Andrew Ryan is one of the best characters in recent video game history. His philosophy is a whole other discussion itself. The atmosphere, as you touched upon yourself, is what truly makes this game and is what's it all about. Enjoy the ride. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cg1dMpu4v7M[/ame] "Fly away little moth!" |

Also have you ever played the Metal Gear Solid series?
IMO, it's the greatest series of all time. No contest (like how you view Ali). It has some of the most tragic characters in all of Video Game history (Grey Fox, Ocelot, Solid Snake) but one stands out in particular. Big Boss. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JivMqY6RM4[/ame] |

I hardly ever actually did anything when I was playing the Mass Effect games. Skyrim, as well (which I was also late to). I got this feeling that Bioshock will be something similar. I get hooked real easily. It's why I try to avoid them. As for Metal Gear, I've played one, and that was a long time ago. Don't know which, but it had that Psycho Mantis dude in it. That's the only thing I can vividly remember about the game, because fighting him was crazy. It's a really early gaming memory for me, but still there. From back in the long, long ago. If their that damn good I might have to work my way through them, but man, that's a lot to get into. Dozen or so games, right? A lot going on there. |
