Bioshock Demo Up - Page 14

You don't shit on zelda while I'm on watch duty, sir!

Ocarina of time was TEH awesomeness in cartridge form.

WindWaker had the most charming graphical style ever for a zelda, and a grand game hampered only by some tedious collection quest.

Twilight Princess on its own is miles above everything else, but within the context of the zelda saga slightly disappointing merely because of reusing Ocarina of Time formula.

I played the Demo and thought it was pretty cool, but those rankings seem a little high to me.

I watched a movie trailer that was pretty cool, but the reviews for the film itself seem a little too good to me.

Fuck. Apparently no one knows when the PC demo is coming out. Fileplanet's Download Manager says check back in an hour, and Shacknews is backpedaling on their initial demo announcement. I left work early to come home to nothing. Fuck.

Oh well, BF2142 will have to do.

Fuuuck. I just realized the 21st is NOT, in fact, Monday. I feel like I just lost a day of my life.

The bright side is that I only have 1 class Tuesday at 3:30 pm. Hopefully I can just play Bioshock all day...

The ULTIMATE demo is out for Xbox 360 (aka the full version) if you are modded of course!

Lorrac · 08-18-2007, 07:50 AM

Man, Ken Levine had to sell his development studio to Take Two to finance BioShock (including all rights to the ip) - don't talk about piracy on BioShock threads please.

As said above, this is just one of those games you don't pirate.

Haha school starts up next week and Tuesday is my one day where class gets out at noon and I don't have to work for 8 hours. It's basically providence.

When is the PC demo due out? I thought it was yesterday

Or at least, if you pirate it now at least have the fucking decentcy (sp?) to buy it later (at full price).

Some of the reviews I'm reading for this game are really stunning. They sound like they're slaved over by writers on their knees, sloshing big, passionate, watery tears of joy everywhere while simultaneously whacking it furiously with each keystroke.

BioShock is the ultimate rarity: not only does it live up to its lofty promise, but exceeds it through simple, old fashioned talent and imagination - not to mention verve, style,class, wit, and sheer bloody-minded ambition. It takes the tired, worn-out FPS genre by the scruff of the neck, reinvents and bend it out of shape in such a breathtaking fashion that it's going to take something very special to top this in the months and years ahead.

An unparalleled achievement. No other game comes even remotely close to it in terms of raw emotional connection.

It’s ingenious, enthralling, and a masterpiece of the most epic proportions. So without further delay, would you kindly enter Rapture so that you too can experience the best that video games have to offer?

Damn I hope they come out with a PC demo soon. My CPU is under recommended specs (single core) and I'd love to see if it matters as my computer meets the other recommended specs. If I have to buy it on the 360 to be able to play with all the bells and whistles on I will but I'd much rather get it on the PC.

They really dropped the ball

.

No point of a demo now, seeing as how the game comes out in 2 days.

It's the demo that's generating the hype... Since it was released bioshock has gone over madden 360 and pokemon on amazon best-selling chart.
