This is an amazing game for the Xbox 360. It has a very deep storyline that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Game play can be extremely thrilling at times. AI will trick you and scare during unsuspecting times. Weapons in the game can be customized to power them up, and there are different types of ammo you can create to suit different types of enemies. Bioshock is by far my favorite XBOX 360 game.
What's great about it: Great Storyline and Soundtrack, Customizable Weapons and Abilities

This is one of the best games that I have ever played. Bioshock has superb graphics and is also very easy to control/ play. It also, surprisingly, has a great story line which you usually don't find much of in video games. Play it and look out for the twist. The music and the sound of this game are outstanding. The makers created a perfect playing atmosphere. The Loading time in between screens is very short compared to other games which is a big plus so you don't have to sit around and twiddle your thumbs forever. The only downside of Bioshock is that the game itself could be longer but maybe I just feel that way because I was having such a good time playing it.
What's great about it: Graphics, Story Line, Quick Loading, Good Controll

THe game has a unique story and plot and setting. The combat is fun and requires skill. This game just doesn't have the .."umph" a truly great game has. I can't describe it but, to start: your just not scared. Your not afraid to rush around corners and whiz by stuff. In otehr games like silent hil and resident evil, I dont want to turn a corner because Im afraid of whats on the other side. In Bioshock this isnt so. Bioshocks combat also is missing that something special. Dont get me wrong the game deos everything well, better than most, but it just misses the crucial element, that I cant quite explain. Could be just me.. worth a try anywho.
What's great about it: Good combat, good plot and unique setting
What's not so great: Combat could be better... hacking gets old fast

This is one of my favorite games of all time. I really liked the look and feel of the game. The game was balanced and not too hard on normal. Now that there is some free DLC, I will probably go back and play through again on the next difficulty level. One thing that got a little tiresome was playing through the "Pipe Dream" minigame over and over again, but it's a minor complaint. I'm not sure what the plot would be, but I hope they do a Bioshock 2.
What's great about it: Excellent Gameplay, Engaging Story
What's not so great: Minigame gets tiresome after a while

Bioshock is one of the most important and greatest games of all time. With its phenominal voice acting and intriguing story line, Bioshock will have you playing, and guessing untill the shocking ending. You play as an unnamed character who winds up in Rapture, an underwater city, after a plane crash and has to find a way out and up to the surface. However he meets interesting people and finds that the socity of Rapture has turned for the worse. So now you not only have to find a way out, but you must fight in order to stay alive. The game has that sense of ambience as you feel like your in the city of Rapture. Everything from venders to funiture bring this city to life. Along with the powerful voice acting from the characters and you would think Rapture was a real place. Every word comes form peoples lips as if it was not scripted, but by free will. However with a game like this, their has to be some flaw in it and sadly their is, but it is a very minor one. The game can be repetitive at times. The missions do not seem all the different ranging from search missions to protect missions to escort missions. The way you care out these missions lie with what form of weapon you use and also what plasmids, DNA genetic powers, you use. Also at times, the game can be a bit scary when you least expect it to be. Overall this game speaks a message of loyalty, faith, religion, and also the country. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique game.
What's great about it: Great sense of ambience, Powerful voice acting, Innovation, Interesting Storyline
What's not so great: Oddly Repetitive, Also a tad bit scary.

This game is so awesome. I love how you can have many different powers from the plasmids. The game progressively gets harder...which I like. The plot is very different and unique. I love the graphics.
What's great about it: There are all kinds of powers and weapons that you can gain throughout the game.
What's not so great: The ending is a bit of a let down...it ends up being very easy.

This game was game of the year for 2007 in most award listings, and for good reason. If you do not own this game yet, pick it up, you certainly will not be disappointed. This is not the "same old thing" in any way. You quickly find yourself unable to tear yourself away, exploring this strange and captivating world and experimenting with your abilities. Game play is very intuitive once you get the hang of it, and the controls work very well. The storyline is superb, the plot twists and turns, always leaving you on the edge of your seat.
What's great about it: Great gameplay, captivating graphics, awesome story
What's not so great: None really, other than I wished it wouldnt end...
