Too much Bioshock praise, not enough Crysis/COD4 praise.

[Quemaqua]

Pssh.  No comment.

Too much Bioshock praise, not enough Crysis/COD4 praise.

I can see Bioshock winning all three of those categories, myself...

[iPPi]

I still haven't finished Bioshock. 

No love for Assassin's Creed, which is definitely one of my favorite games this year.

[shock]

Bioshock is good, but it's just not as good as Crysis or CoD4.  I started Bioshock a few weeks ago, and haven't touched it since I started playing CoD4 multiplayer and Crysis single player.  I hope I'll get back to it some time.. but it just wasn't that fun of gameplay.  And the baddies are fucking impossible to kill on hard mode.  Seriously.

[Quemaqua]

Maybe you just suck.

If anything, Bioshock's TOO EASY w/ the Vita Chambers on -- regardless of diffculty.

Even if you die when fighting tough Big Daddies, you get sent back to a Vita Chamber when you die, can keep running back to the Big Daddies and repeat this cycle until you kill a Big Daddy, since their health doesn't regenerate every time you die.

Of course, on Hard Mode w/ the Chambers off, I bet it'll be damn tough 'cause you can't respawn at all...

[shock]

I don't use the Vita Chambers because I think they are stupid.

[Pugnate]

I agree. I just don't use them. I'd rather load a game.
