The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
JamesKeenan (How unfortunate that someone with a screen name taken from such a good musician is such a twat) has already explained that he didn't post his opinion in the Bioshock discussion thread because he didn't feel that he would get enough personal attention if he did.
I do hope he's happy with all the attention he's getting now.
Oh god, why the hell isn't there a head slam, or a forehead slap smiley... And you're right in assuming I'm nothing but a total tool. How foolish am I to pass up the obviously official Penny Arcade endorsed and backed sole discussion thread of Bioshock on these forums. "Big Daddy Goes AWOOOOOO." :roll:
What was I thinking. But thankfully you took the time out to alert me to this. Rightfully completely ignoring my point and topic, or utterly misunderstanding me out of spite or ignorance. The time spent misinterpreting my words certainly would not have been as well spent discussing what I thought to be a legitimate issue.

The easiest solution would have been to click on the first page of the largest Bioshock thread, seen that it is NOT, in fact, a huge thread about a Big Daddy going AWOOOOOO and putting your opinions in that thread.

We have this thing here called the rules thread and it tells you to keep your dirty mouth shut until you have a rough idea of our customs.
Ignoring it is asking for mockery.
You definitely were nothing but a tool.
What a fool you were for ignoring our official discussion topic.

You are right there, and I'm thankful for the intelligent comment without the bite.
I'll admit, though I certainly don't have to, this being the internet and all, that I didn't check the discussion going on in the AWOOOOOO thread before posting this, but I DID scan for a related topic. I didn't post first off. My first instinct wasn't to get the most attention, it was to find out OTHER'S thoughts. I'm the only one I know who's played and beaten the game. I have NO one to talk seriously about this one issue.
Had I seen a board specifically for Bioshock, or a sticky designated as the discussion thread, I'd have been guided, as if by an overhead arrow, but that wasn't the case, and there were no pre-existing "overrated" threads I saw.
And I rightful diagnosed, anyhow, AWOOOOO as a nonsense thread. What of the recent activity has much at all to do with Bioshock in there? What better a chance in there than here did I have to start a legitimate thought conversation as per whether or not Bioshock can already be prescribed GOTY?
EDIT: Yes, sarcasm. I'll spell it out, because it may not have been clear. I may have just been trying to get attention.

Fuck yo pokemanz.
I've gone through BIOSHOCK 3 times now and played with different styles, First a Hacker with a fuckawesome pistol/ Second a Combat Junkie with a fully modded Shottie, third time more reliant on genetic powers and mostly offensive attacks.

Actually, discussion of the game is running pretty rampant in there. It's a beautiful thing that tends to happen in discussion threads. And since you've beaten it, you get to click all the pretty spoiler tags too.

JamesKeenan, if I may offer some constructive critisism?
I'd walk away. Post your original thesis in the bioshock thread, see if it gets any reply, and leave it at that.
Most of the people posting in this thread have violated the forum rules as is, and it will probably be locked by the first mod that notices it. So no matter what happens from here, this thread is stillborn.
Your thoughts in the first post are quite thought-provoking, coming from a guy who has not played Bioshock. In fact, I checked the bioshock thread to see if you had posted them there, because they do deserve to be discussed.
But this thread is over, I hate to say.

I've gone through BIOSHOCK 3 times now and palyed with different styles, First a Hacker with a fuckawesome pistol/ Second a Combat Junkie with a fully modded Shottie, third time more reliant on genetic powers and mostly offensive attacks.
I regret nothing.
See, I missed that kind of engaging activity. I only ever found use for a few hacking plasmids. The hacking mini-game *was* out of character for the mood of the game, was admitted by one of the lead designers. However, didn't really start to get bored of it until near the end. It was easy, I don't remember dying once from it, I think I only even screwed up once and sounded an alarm, most of my weapons I was able to upgrade, though I may have missed a few terminals, and combat came naturally.
Granted I played on medium because I needed to return it eventually, and I wasn't sure I'd even have the time to beat it if I went through on hard. I really was expecting a lot. So maybe on Hard I've have been a little more strapped for cash. As it was I didn't really miss out on anything. I even only harvested a few girls, which I regret, because I didn't know there were only two endings.
