Totally forgot about him for a sec, hands down. Close second is Cohan, who wants you to finish his "masterpeice".....

Bioshock is one of the most overrated games ever. I rented it and got a few hours into it and it was just very boring. Its was pretty sure, but overall a very boring and mindless FPS.

I would say the original Silent Hill is the scariest game ever...those ghost babies...

It's hardly a "mindless fps".
A mindless fps would be Halo, Battlefield 2, etc.

This game has such a huge, elaborate, intricate storyline that if you don't appreciate storylines - well, the game won't be good to you.

Even deeper than the story, were the ideas behind it. If you look at it as a shooter, it was as mindless as shooters get, with almost no variety in enemies. But as a whole package, it deserved every award it got.

It's very open-ended in terms of gameplay too. I think the RPG elements really helped.

I wouldnt say Bioshock is open ended at all. I thought it was actually very linear, which isnt necessairly a bad thing, but it was in the case of bioshock because the gameplay was so repetitive. Thats the thing, you have to have both a good story and the gameplay to back it up, and Bioshock just didnt have the gameplay. Thats why the Half Life series is the best FPS out there right now, the gameplay is stellar, and the story is intriguing and complex.

It's a game that should be played through. The atmosphere is wonderful.

I'm looking forward to what Ken Levine works on next. Not BioShock 2, but a new IP.

Edit: *erases everything he previously wrote*
Everybody, just watch this...

He basically sums up everything perfectly...

Anyone else wanna see way to play System Shock 2 again? I've tried time and time again to get it working but it got owned if you didn't use specific video cards and/or Windows 2000.

That was a great fucking game.
