Andrew Ryan:
I am Andrew Ryan, and I'm here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? 'No!' says the man in Washington, 'It belongs to the poor.' 'No!' says the man in the Vatican, 'It belongs to God.' 'No!' says the man in Moscow, 'It belongs to everyone.' I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible.

Without a doubt the most hyped original game of 2007 is Bioshock. Why is it so hyped though? What is it about Bioshock that makes it so intriguing? Why are so many people dying to get their hands on it? I'll put it simply- originality. We, the gamers are sick to death of seeing the same over and over which is exactly what made such an impression on us when Bioshock first surfaced. But does it live up to the hype? No...it well beyond exceeds it. I can truly say I've never played anything like Bioshock before. Never have I been through such a unique and emotional gaming experience. When the game starts out you meet this Ayn Rand wannabe Andrew Ryan and he basically introduces you too this, underwater utopia gone wrong, Rapture. About 2 minutes into the game you realize something has happened and Rapture isn't as perfect as Ryan claims it is. One of the most interesting game elements is the morality choice's. You have to make there choices by getting ahold of a little sister and deciding to harvest her for her Atom (which will give you much faster access to plasmids and upgrades) or save her and get very limited atom and makes the game more difficult. But getting to these little sisters is no easy task because to get to them you have to deal with the big Daddies. Big Daddies are the super tough protectors of the little sisters and are near invulnerable to most attacks. Another satisfying element is the voice acting and phenomenal storyline, you can get lost for hours in Rapture just searching secret rooms for audio diaries to add one more little piece to the puzzle of Bioshock. (Which leads up to a very surprising twist in the storyline I might add.) The only thing that really bothered me about Bioshock is the hacking, at first I thought it was a very fun way to deal with something that can get tedious, but it happens SO often that it will begin to drive you crazy by the end of the game. But even with that said Bioshock offers one of the most flawless gaming experiences out there (at least in my book) and it's not something any 360 owner should miss.
