:lol: cycling through weapons. rotfl

I can't believe your are as far in the game as you are and cycling. Wow.

Sorry, I've been refering to Arcadia. For some reason, I thought it was called Utopia.

Oh and FYI about the water:

This face he has for his avatar goes perfect with this. rotfl

OK, I've finished Arcadia. Hopped the metro to the next portion.

The options have increased for inventing, which is nice. I still think the player should have more customization options when inventing stuff.

I also found out the limit of the wallet is $500. That really pisses me off. I had to leave about $150 bucks behind in the last section.

In that case, Suprmallet, how did you get Dracula's nephew to follow you into the time machine? And was he able to break the curse that kept you in the cryogenic UNN holo-world? I thought it was clever how the whole game took place after System Shock 2.

Thanks for the heads up I have close to $400 right now. I've been cheap about buying ammo, so I should start going all out now.

No, I haven't seen it yet.

House, I just found what you are looking for!

Spermallets review is live.

But until the 21st the game isn't officially released :)

The first thing that came to mind with that review was, gushing.

he did gush a little. ;)

The saddest part about the release date is that on the tuesday it comes out, I have work that evening, then the girl I'm seeing is coming over and spending the night, and THEN there's a 311 concert I'm going to Wednesday night... I won't be able to get really into the game till Thursday, and that just makes me upset. :(

I just hit the "Holy Shit" moment of the storyline. The execution was a bit on the vauge side, but I'm still impressed. The following story twist, 2 minutes later, tied everything together even better.

I also believe I found the path where the story diverges dependent on if you have been harvesting or saving the Little Sisters. DO NOT read the spoiler if you haven't got to the major twist in the story.

System Shock 2 is one of my all time favorite games. I've been waiting anxiously for Bioshock since it was just an idea in somebody's head, and have been eagerly following all the developments about it, all the way up to release. I think I deserve to gush a little. :)

And besides, I'd like to think I went into the reasons that I was going nuts for it. It's not like my review just says "OMG 4W3S0M3!" or anything.

Heh. "Oh, no, sex is interfering with my Bioshock!"

You must have been harvesting Little Sisters rather than saving them, because when I played

But that just goes to show you how vastly different the playing experience can be.

Agreed. With so may FPS games out there these days it's nice to see some innovation. One thing I think you failed to mention was the lack a multi-player element. Not too many FPS games lately are single player only. Black was the last major title that I can think of. I for one am not disappointed about that in any way. I solid single player game can make up for the multi-player aspect. And vice versa is true as well like Halo2. That was the only issue I felt you didn't cover in an otherwise great review.

You're right, I didn't mention. I completely forgot about it, in fact. :lol: I'll add it in at some point. Thanks.

I will never slight a game for only offering an enriching single player experience. I'd rather have a 4 star single player than a 3 star game with a 1 star tacked on MP mode ala Prey, the Darkness, and Metroid Prime: Echoes.

The Big Daddies are kind of sad without their Little Sisters. They just mope around, moan, and bang on the holes the Little Sisters crawl into.

I'm believe I'm heading into the final section of the game. I suspect it's going to be a bumpy ride. :)

how do u access your inventory?
how do you use stuff in your inventory like wine etc?

There is no inventory. With the exception of health kits & Eve injections, you can only immediately use items.

I went over to the EB games at Universal Citywalk to see the life-size Big Daddy! To my disappointment... the arms were missing!!!!!!!!

I asked an employee about it and apparently they fell off and landed on a kid.

Well he shouldn't have been fuckin' with a Big Daddy!

For those who have made it to Fort Frolic: (not really a spoiler)
