Play the BioShock Demo, Poop Your Pants

So I dropped into the recently released BioShock demo, late last night, while Tenlin was away on a business trip. I was alone, in a dark house, with the surround sound cranked, ready to try the game I preordered last week. Right off the bat the game impresses with some really cool cinematic style opening scenes. But once you get inside Rapture get ready for some sceery stuff. Between the moody lighting, the creepy sound effects and the mysterious storyline, this game looks to be really immersive and quite creepy. It had me on the edge of my Lazyboy the entire time. Even if you don't like darker games I highly recommend trying out the demo just to get a taste of the world of BioShock.

Thank you for the update Free. I will check it out. I'm not a creepy fan but this game has some big reviews and I'm going to get it. Boo.

Played the demo last night and man was that excellent. Very fresh and new gameplay experience. The visuals were outstanding and I was a little creeped out but not too much. The demo gives you enough to be interesting but does not wreck the game with spoilers.

I have only two words for this game.

Holy Crap.

That was as bizzare, creepy experience that I've seen in a game in years. What a unique premise and mechanics of play.

The graphics are just amazing, the gameplay great, and the story is creepy in a way you can't shake afterward.

I won't be getting this game, because it creeped me out way too much, but if this is a sign of the future for 360 games, holy crap the future looks good.
