So, who's getting it? It has got very good reviews so far from the big websites like IGN(9.7) and gamespy(5/5).

"BioShock is the "genetically enhanced" first person shooter that lets you do things never before possible in the genre: turn everything into a weapon, biologically mod your body with plasmids, hack devices and systems, upgrade your weapons and craft new ammo variants, and experiment with different battle techniques in an incredible and unique underwater city.

You are a cast-away in Rapture, an underwater Utopia torn apart by civil war. Caught between powerful forces, and hunted down by genetically modified “splicers” and deadly security systems, you have to come to grips with a deadly, mysterious world filled with powerful technology and fascinating characters. No encounter ever plays out the same, and no two gamers will play the game the same way.

BioShock is loaded with some of greatest, most modifiable weapons to ever blast their way into a shooter. But guns alone won’t be enough to defeat the devious AIs of Rapture. There are literally hundreds of other strategies players can use to take out his enemies. Here’s just a few things you can do a foe:

* Catch his Grenades in Mid Air and Toss Them Back at Him
* Freeze Him Solid and Shatter Him with Smack of your Wrench
* Lead him and his comrades to water and Zap them all with 1000 Volts
* Burn Him Up With Home-Made Molotov Cocktails
* Booby Trap Healing Machines and Watch Them Blow up IN his Face
* Brainwash Him to Become Your Personal BodyGuard
* Invent your own Ammo Types to Prey on his Vulnerabilities
* Turn his own Security System Against Him
* Light Him on Fire and Launch Heat Seeking Missiles At him
* Torment Him with Plagues of Insects
* Take Research Photos of Him to Learn his Weaknesses
* Send Him Flying into the Ceiling to Knock him Senseless

No encounter ever plays out the same way twice. No two gamers will ever play BioShock the same way. "

I played the demo on my computer from Steam, but I got sick of it trying to wait 20 minutes to play. I'll give it another go later.

FUCKING HELL MAN IT RULES IT ROCKS....

it's like playing Halflife 1 for the very first time 'wow I can look around using my mouse???' that kinda feeling.

The game just looks perfect, the water is hyperrealistic, lightening is awesome, everything is so cool, telekineses rocks, plasmids rock, the enemies are scary as fuck, big daddys are awesome opponents, i love the way they give you multiple solutions to the same problem (should I zap that turret with my electric bolt so i can hack it and then use it against the big daddy down the hall or should I destroy it, zap the water the big daddys in with electricity and pray I have enough ammo/eve (mana) to take him down on my own) it gives it this very 'open world' experience while you are after all trapped a mile or two under the surface.

ONe word:

Astonishing

Finally they're coming out with games that even after you beat it, it's not the same boring thing over and over :?
