BioShock

2007

Action, Shooter

BioShock is a shooter unlike any you've ever played, loaded with weapons and tactics never seen. You'll have a complete arsenal at your disposal from simple revolvers to grenade launchers and chemical throwers, but you'll also be forced to genetically modify your DNA to create an even more deadly weapon: you. Injectable plasmids give you super human powers: blast electrical currents into water to electrocute multiple enemies, or freeze them solid and obliterate them with the swing of a wrench.

Anyone else first time they played this wait for the longest time for your character to move in the water thinking it was a cutscene still. Would you kindly star this.

While some of the control mechanics can at times distract, there are too many moments of brilliance to completely dismiss. Its very Gnostic worldview (with its, frankly, weirdly strict good/evil character-building dualism) starts to seep into your brain like Chinese Water Torture. Whichever ending you earn, it's wholly disturbing.

Beautifully imagined and unlike many other shooters of the time. A solid story and fun mechanics make for a great time.

Bioshock is a wonderful example of world-building and atmosphere coupled with excellent shooter mechanics. It does, however, start to get a little samey by the halfway point. Most of the game becomes a trek through more of the same environments to find some baddie you need to kill because reasons. The game is fantastic, but it's not the king of the 2000s like some gamers laud it, and it has absolutely nothing on its threequel, Infinite.
