Learn more about Bioshock - Xbox 360. (Flash demo) SynopsisImagine flying high above the arctic seas, anxiously awaiting your descent to dry land. Without warning, the plane plummets to the cold and unforgiving water at unimaginable speed. Once the aircraft makes contact, you realize that falling from the skies is only the beginning of this nightmare. Wrenched into Rapture, a doomed city beneath the sea, you come across a rusted bathysphere. You learn that this once idealistic society, the brainchild of a hopeful group of scientists, artists and industrialists, now has corpses littering the city limits.Going beyond run-and-gun corridors BioShock presents a unique and unpredictable first-person shooter experience in real time. In order to survive an onslaught of assailants, you must take control of your world by hacking mechanical devices, capturing security towers and crafting items to protect yourself. Upgrade your weapons and genetically modify your body to evade the grotesque ghouls who are after you. Make meaningful choices and mature decisions to ultimately answer the question: Should you exploit the innocent survivors of Rapture or save them?

F.E.A.R. 2

All the hype was right. This is an awesome game. and all the time and money they spent on water graphics certainly paid off.
Just about every review I've seen compared this to Halo, saying that Bioshock was better. However I disagree in parts. Mainly that this isn't the same type of game as halo. This game is much more similar to F.E.A.R. (First Encounter Assault Recon) in it's atmosphere, occasional ghost sightings and overall goriness. Halo on the other hand focuses more on large scale battles in outdoor settings, not to mention including multiplayer into its programming.
This game includes many great complexities, and yet for anyone with a little experience playing first person shooters, or most any game for that matter, it really isn't hard to pick up on the subtleties. one of the most amazing/annoying qualities of the game is the ability to go back from any point in the game, to any previous point, and have everything sitting right where you left it. I say annoying because in certain areas, a vital item can be dropped into an area where it is inaccessable, then be lost for the rest of the game.
There is certainly a great use of MANY mad scientists throughout the game. Actually just about everyone in the whole game is a mad scientist. :-) but other than that, they go into the complexities of their madness through the use of tape recorders strategically left throughout the whole of Rapture, the underwater city in which the game takes place. Of course like any good scientist, these like to experiment, and once mad with power, and having lost their minds, their experiments had a tendency to go overboard. Leaving some very strange abominations throughout the city.
One of the main pillars of the story and the game is the use of Adam and Eve, which are solutions created by the scientists to enable the use of genetic manipulation. That genetic manipulation is taken to some interesting extremes with the use of Plasmids. things that allow people who inject them to gain special powers. I won't go into all of the powers because there are many. But suffice it to say that, normal weapons are only about half of what you use throughout the game.
I would recommend this to a friend!
