GOTY 1999, played it for an hour so far, fucking awesome for such old game.

And its scary. Only old game ive played that was sort of scary was AVP1, which owns AVP2 in scariness.

I learned that about BIoShock yesterday, sort of disappointing they dismissed the sci-fi approach and made just another WW bunker shooter :S

I read official review on it from some game site and made my opinion based on the screenshots I saw, too.
Besides that, no I dont know the game and probably wont own a computer that would run it for quite some time. Also my ww bunker shooter term might be slightly inapproperiate but sci-fi is sci-fi and world war timed game remains exactly what it is.
You obviously know more so do enlighten me.

actually i did that 24 hours before your above post ;)

i guess i.. well i dont know what i was looking at or reading then :S.. must be going crazy

if it stays futuristic, if it is anything like SS2 was for its year, then I guess its superb.

Your attitude however is not. Prejudice is fast to develop, I searched few sites on the named game, read something about bunkers, rotten walls, and more, saw a screen that matched the image I got, and voila.
Similarly to the opinion I now must've developed from your two very aggressive posts. And no, aggressive post doesn't have to contain faul language or what not, intelligent people can post anything in proper manner and I took offense from your attitude.


the laboratory complex is apparently a holdover from World War II--you'll see remnants of the war as well as peeling paint throughout the complex. Something apparently happened back then that caused the complex to be abandoned by whoever was using it.


as i was tired and in a hurry this actual paragraph from above mentioned game review was what I read.

You've proven that I was wrong and I assumed that from your first post, only to explain how I got the idea. You however display nothing but arrogance and aggression just through these two posts.
And this is what it came down to for me. Perhaps that doesnt make you think, but it did make me think.

edit: also, if you insist i could describe the ww bunker shooter idea in detail, and more clearly, something the game would and wouldnt match, which would possibly leave us both on the right side. Replace word bunker with word complex if you must.
