DESCRIPTION

In BioShock, you take the role of an isolated crash survivor who discovers a city under the sea. This city, also known as Rapture, was once a utopia for scientists, artists, and industrialists. However, by the time your character takes his first steps into Rapture, the civilization has ceased to exist, and the place is nearly desolate. The signs of life your avatar finds are nothing like he's seen before. Creatures known as little sisters roam the streets of Rapture with enormous bodyguards called big daddies. Mutated humans drag their warped bodies around the city and attack you on sight.

The goal of the game is to find your way out of Rapture while uncovering the mysteries behind its existence. As you explore the open environment, you must defeat big daddies and little sisters to obtain a material known as Adam. The Adam can enhance your in-game attributes and unlock over 60 genetic skills that come in handy for all sorts of predicaments. The city of Rapture is almost completely interactive, and you may collect objects for later use. There are also six modifiable weapons to use including two types of guns.

Coming more than a year after the PC and Xbox 360 release, Bioshock for the PS3 comes equipped with a new Survivor mode of difficulty, Trophy support, and post-release downloadable content. ~ All Game Guide

“@DeathorGlory9 Meh, I was playing like crap anyway, trying to reacquaint myself with the controls while I was playing. I'm sure next time I can do the same stuff while taking way less damage and expending less health kits.”

“I kind of wish I had played Zone of The Enders. However the PSone/PS2 was my brother Robin's console. So... I never really got to touch it, as he was _exceedingly_ possessive of it. Like most of his possessions.”

BioShock (PS3) by: Chicken-Flicker

“Sicuramente il miglior FPS a cui abbia giocato considerando che io prediligo l'atmosfera al puro gameplay. Rapture è magnifica; i Big Daddies, nella loro staticità, sono magnificamente caratterizzati, e l'eco del loro urlo incute timore anche da...”
