Bioshock: Greatest FPS Ever?

So, I just finished Bioshock this evening. What a crazy, brilliant game. The game mechanics and level design are top notch, there’s a very deep and involved storyline, and the gameplay doesn’t get stale after the first five levels. I have to hand it to them, I think they may have built the greatest first person shooter to date.

I loved the hacking minigames, the “virtue tests” involving the children (and subsequent alternate endings), and the plasmids were a blast. Not a dull moment in the game. My only complaint? I suppose the ending left me a little wanting… the ending boss fight wasn’t overly difficult, but more importantly it kind of of felt unfinished. You get there, he dies, roll one of three possible endings, fin. Regardless though, total blast, and I can’t recommend the game more.

Alternate Endings

Ultra mega spoiler alert! If you’re like me and you only have the patience one go-through of a game, but have to know what those alternate endings are, I took the liberty of uploading them here: the good ending, the bad ending, the really bad ending. You’ll notice the last two are almost identical in visuals, but the narration differs ever so slightly.

I agree. One of the best FPS-games of all time, if not THE best. Loved the colourful graphics and the environment. The gameplay was great and the story was really good, thrilling (and a little spooky).
