As far as FPS games goes this is an excellent game, but when you throw in the atmosphere and puzzles, this games becomes one of a kind. The people who designed this game really challenge the player so if you are a beginner, make sure you choose the beginner settings. I'd compare this game to Resident Evil as far as genres, but this is far smoother and more fun to play. Prepare to be a little spooked out from time to time as the environment really reels you in and makes you feel like you are there.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best game for the 360 BY FAR

If there is one game that every xbox 360 owner needs to own it is this. Not Halo 3, not Gears of War, not any other game. Just Bioshock.
Video 10/10
The graphics are the most amazing I have seen of any game EVER. The "people" look real, the rooms look great, every little detail has been polished so it all looks and FEELS so real.
Audio 10/10
Same as video - perfect soundtrack for the situations, very polished and carefully chosen
Gameplay 10/10
The (combat) combinations are endless. The storyline is rather linear (there is very little time that you don't know exactly where to go and that there is more than one way to get there. A lot of times there is even a useful little arrow to tell you which way to go) But where this game truly shines is combat. You can incinerate your enemies, causing them to slowly die, stop them in their tracks with a swarm of hornets or a blast of electricity. You can equip tonics that make you a juggernaut with the wrench or make you a great sharpshooter. The game's claim of "No two same play throughs" is very true. Each and every person will have their own style.
The hacking mini-game is done in such a way that the transition is perfect. The seamless integration of this game is just another example of the level of perfection this game achieves.
Finally, there are actually choices that you have to make and that you actually feel. This leads to the replay value - the game has 3 different endings that depend on the choices you make. Plus its a blast to play through again and again.
All in all this is one of my favorite games of all time (next to the N64 Zelda games) Basically it is the greatest game of the next generation.
Buy it today!

Forget about Gears of War, and all those other "great games". Its all right here in Bioshock. This game is truly, truly amazing. The graphics, the sound, everything about Bioshock is perfect. Its not just your every day shooter. It adds a twist with having different upgrades and using the plasmids against your enemies which brings in so many different strategies. If I could, I would rate this a 100. But, if your a serious Xbox 360 gamer, this is the game to buy.

I really love the Art Deco feel of the game. The plasmid and tonic system is good and it is a very involved first-person shooter. It is kind of short and is really easy on the lowest setting, but the content of the game outweighs that for me. Great game! Go get it!

I bought this game after playing the demo on xbox live. I was very impressed with the graphics and the music that transported the player back to the era (1959-1960). The game is fantastic and definitely has replayability value, even though there is no multi-player options. You can't go wrong with this game. Check out all the other game sites reviews and you'll see why this game MIGHT be game of the year...of course HALO3 will probably have something to say about that.

This is by far one of the best first person shooters I have ever played. From the art deco themes to the crafty and intelligent story which will keep you hooked right up until the very end to the highly intense confrontations with the city's inhabitants, it all makes you feel as though you are actually ALIVE within the game world. The plasmid system (chemical injections that give you sepcial abilites such as freezing enemies or setting them on fire with a wave of your hand) really adds a cool dynamic to what would otherwise be just an above average shooter. The enemy a.i. in the game is likewise really well developed, and some enemy encounters literally made me jump a little since again this game has such a realistic and believable feel to it. So, in short, whether you're looking for the next great first person shooter or you're just looking to have some gory fun blasting bad guys with old school weapons in a fantastical underwater setting, look no further than Bioshock, a new masterpiece to add to the wondrous history of videogames.

Great game, great graphics and very open ended on accomplishing tasks throughout the game. Lack of multiplayer knocks it down to 4 stars, but the single player campaign will keep you very entertained.
