Re: BioShock Chat + Videos

Just borrowed a mate's 360 to play the demo (still not made up my mind on next-gen, and my home PC is so far behind spec for this thing it's not funny...that's what I get for enjoying PC gaming circa 2002 era)

Re: BioShock Chat + Videos

And BioShock wins on "URGH, CREEPY" factor.

Random MSNs to friends tonight, a mere 40mins into the demo:

Quote:
I just watched some mutated woman have a 2 minute creepy-as-fuck monologue with a baby carriage before I killed her for the 2$ in her wallet

Then there was the 8yr old girl I found stabbing corpses in the stomach with a 3ft long needled syringe...someone hit her with a wrench and then a large dome-suited monstrosity with a drill for a hand literally screwed the guy to a wall before the 8yr old climbed up onto the monsters shoulder

Re: BioShock Chat + Videos

The PC demo is silly-huge for the amount of gameplay it provides. Ah well. And I'll pre-empt the cries of 'who cares, we all have 8MB broadband these days dont we?'. No, we don't.

Personally I'm enjoying slapping it with a melee weapon and then running around it in wee circles while the girl freaks the hell out

Re: BioShock Chat + Videos

Take Two's stock jumped up 10% yesterday with the US release of BioShock.

Game's stunning so far.

Both the demo and the fo'reals game are XP and Vista compatible. None of this "Games for Windows" pish

Specs are rough.
Minimum P4 4.2Ghz, 1GB ram, NVidia 6600/ATIX1300, 8GB hard drive space.

Check out the PC demo though - it's a large download, but definitely gives you a good feel for the game
