This game is great from graphics to game play. This game has yet to disappoint me. The story is excellent and it gives you the feeling of Doom and FEAR type theme. The weapon choices and upgrade powers are unique and lots of fun to use when your killing enemies. Like everyone else it would have been fun to have multi player but doesn't take away from the game.
Great game!

Great game. I just got the XBOX Elite and hooked up to my new HD LCD 37" at 720P...This game is amazing! Reminds me of the first time I played Halflife on my PC!! The graphics and sound is top notch and the video "Acting" (voices, etc) is terrific. I always appreciate getting my moneys worth, and this game was worth every penny! I am anticipating Halo 3 but I cannot imagine that game topping this one.
This isn't Just a Game

Bioshock has an incredible story behind it, so playing this game is like interacting with an thriller/action movie with a great twist. It is a revolutionary game that will change the way you look at first person shooterz.
Amazing nothing else can be said

This is an amazing game. Best graphics to date. Great story line, great guns. AMAZING CHARACTERS!!! But it gets a bit too gory in some parts. Its hard to describe, but Its a little over the top and creepy. I would reccomend this to anybody! Just be prepared to be creeped out!
AMAZING Game, but limited.

This game is incredible. It has perfect dynamics, incredible graphics, offers a new style of game play, and revolutionizes the way game designers design an interactive first person shooter. The game is one that leaves you wanting more as you are at the edge of your seat from the compelling story line.
The only problem is that once the game is over, there is nothing left to do but start over at the beginning, as though nothing happened.
Although the limited end to a very complex game is disappointed, this is a game I would gladly pay $60 for.
a must have

To be honest, this game has great graphics, and interesting game play. The first levels are really scary, exciting, and interesting. But the game quickly becomes tedious. Basically I played this game a couple of hours a day for about a week, I just couldn't take much more than that at a sitting. Near the end it was pure tedium. Some of the voice acting was great, and funny. I liked Dr. Schulong, but I found the exposition provided by the tapes you find to be trite at best. I kept thinking "He wouldn't have stopped to carve aaaahhhhhgggggg." Honestly why would the people in the game record their inner most thoughts and secrets? Unlikely at best. Compare this to HL2 where the exposition is through the environment, and I find the storytelling in HL2 to be much better accomplished. Bioschock was too compressed, too much voice over exposition. It makes you always feel claustraphobic.
The twist in the game was cleverly done.
Chance I will replay this game without becoming really annoyed? 0%

The best first person shooter I have played. Better than Halo series. Game play is innovative. Camera is flawless. If you like RPG in first person view, get this one.
