BioShock for Xbox 360

Pros: great graphics, amazing gameplay and story, unique atmosphere
Cons: stupid pipe game, you have to save those items!

It’s frightening. With an average of 96% on Game Rankings and perfect 100s from Game Informer and 1Up, a 97 from IGN, it looks as if Bioshock could very well be one of the highest ranked 360 games of all time. The scary part is that, it deserves ...

Pros: Awesome story, great gameplay, lots of exploring and character customization
Cons: No real punishment for dying, hacking mini-game is hokey, most people won't understand the story

It wouldn't be fair to say Bioshock came out of nowhere, but in many ways, it did. Irrational Games – now known as 2K Boston – is known for deep, thought-provoking titles such as the PC only System Shock series, but none of their games are mentioned in ...

Pros: Excellent graphics, fun shooter, creepy setting.
Cons: When you play it the second time, you can see the flaws.

I have a hard time choosing games to play. I don't know what it is, but most of the time I pick the lamest a** videogames. I am very picky on what I play. I hate sport games, racing games aren't really my favorite and I am extremely peculiar about ...

Pros: Amazing audio-visual elements, varied gameplay options
Cons: Somewhat limited replay value

Imagine a world where the 1950's led to a revolution in technology. A world where the capitalists and commies were rejected; where a courageous man by the name of Andrew Ryan built an underwater city where the "enlightened" members of the populous could ...

Pros: This game is gorgeous in every way.
Cons: You can't shoot bees from your fingertips (well not right away)

Imagine if you will, a perfect video game! The graphics would be awesome, beautiful even. The world created would be one you had never seen before. Perhaps instead of a forest, a dungeon and a lava level, it would be an underworld city all done in art ...

Pros: Character customization, interesting story, multiple ways to progress through the game, beautiful visuals/art decor
Cons: Enemy models offer little variation...

I've pretty much been out of comission in the gaming sense for the past three and a half years. High School graduation hit, and in perfect normal fashion life started to come heavy which ran my time and money to spend on games straight into a brick ...

Pros: Too many to mention.
Cons: Too few to mention.

So I just finished up Bioshock, and I find myself at a loss for words. Well, not a loss for words, but rather at a loss for keeping this in as few words as possible. I could a novella on the plot, philosphical messages, gameplay, enemies, and graphics ...

Pros: Excellent Graphics, Gameplay, Sound FX and Artistry
Cons: ENEMIES aren't varied, detailed or smart. No Death Penalty. NO MULTIPLAYER

Regardless the pandering and acquiescence we see in the media, science is diametrically opposed to Religion. Science is fact based, religion is faith based. The reason the scientifically minded must acquiesce to the demands of the religious minded is ...

Pros: +Story
+Graphics
+Voice Acting
+Game Play
+Originality
+Scary
Cons: -Scary
-Easy Difficulty

Weeeeeeeee've got a Winner! It seems like once in a blue moon we come across a game that engulfs us into it's world. A game that pushes boundaries of all sorts. Bioshock proves itself that a game can intrigue minds and tell an ...

Pros: Gameplay variety; graphics and environment; intelligent, engaging plot and expert storytelling
Cons: Small enemy variety; hacking minigame; no consequences for dying; occasional glitches

Perhaps there is little sense in adding another review to the heaping pile of stratospheric scores that Bioshock has garnered. But, even as I assign my perfect score to this undeniably excellent game, I hope I can help level out some of the ...

Pros: Amazing gameplay, scary, great story, fantastic graphics
Cons: nothing worth mentioning

Bioshock was never supposed to be a huge hit. It was a modest title with a modest budget. But it became the sleeper hit of the year and was at the top of nearly all lists of best games of the year. Does it live up to the hype? Is it as great as they say? ...

Pros: Great atmosphere and graphics, plenty of options.
Cons: Terrible last chapter, too many fetch quests.

**Note that this review was originally written for and published on the GameFAQs website.** BioShock starts with a bang. You get a brief glimpse of yourself on a plane and then, suddenly, the plane has crashed in the middle of the Atlantic and you ...

Pros: graphics, story, sound, gameplay - it was perfectly polished and presented
Cons: No online modes.

So, I finally got a chance to get my hands on a game that has been out for several months now, called Bioshock. It has been getting very good reviews, but I have put off playing it since I am not a big fan of shooter style games. However, when a game ...

Pros: A new high in story telling, scenes, sound, and voice acting.
Cons: Poor AI, power weapons, superflous powerups. Combat is only a distraction from the plot.

Biooshock is a well crafted story that happens to be a game. You'll wander from scene to luscious scene drinking in the artistic details, thoughtful dialog and superb voice acting. Scattered throughout are some evidence of game play, but only enough to ...

Pros: amazing story, thrilling, diverse amount of attacks/weapons/skills, gorgeous graphics, fast paced
Cons: could use more death penalties, no online play, not for kids

I'll be honest: I thought nothing could beat Halo 3 as the best Xbox360 game out there. Then I was given BioShock as a gift.My first impression of this game was amazement at the detail and beauty of the graphics (especially the water). You can ...
