I am Shocked by the Bio [Bioshock Thread]

I just beat the game not 5 minutes ago, and I must say, it was possibly one of the best games I have played in recent memory. Every thing about it was damn near perfect, and now I am sad that it's over.

Let us talk about Bioshock. And please use spoilers.

    Really good game but it was over too fast. I tried going back and playing it again but when you don't have the passion of following the killer story the whole game feels deflated.

    I got the good ending then. I think I might go through again and try and get the "bad" ending.

    It feels like Fallout meets Half-Life.

    If this game was a woman, I'd rape it.

    Regarding the mid-game twist.
    I felt sorry for Ryan, he could of stopped you at any time he wanted, but he made a choice to die under his terms while you were stuck obeying another man.

    The final room before you meet up with Ryan with the board of the photos and the would you kindly? plastered in blood, I thought it was Ryan pulling the strings and he needed you to take out all of the crazies for him

    So I start playing the game and by the time I reach
    Ryan and he starts talking to me I can't hear a word he's fucking saying. I had to stand facing away from him to hear him properly through my front left and right speakers, but then when you go into his room and the game takes over I couldn't hear him. I had to change the power supply on my pc a day prior to this and when I started it up something burnt out and I didn't know what. Come to find out it was the mother boards center speaker input that burnt out. So I didn't hear a damn thing he said, I only know he was beat to death.

    Any game where the story telling is strong enough to present me with actual moral dilemmas is a winner in my book.

    I intended to harvest the little sisters on my first play through because hard was kicking my ass, but I couldn't do it.

    He takes all the little sisters away from Rapture after beating Atlas and gives them the chance at having normal lives. They live, they love, and they become his family. All through a montage of hands.

    I don't know about the "bad" ending, but like someone said earlier, once it's over and you don't have the story to drive you I found it hard to play through again.

    Although it was kind of neat to count...
    All of the "Would you kindly"s

    Oh man...
    When I approached the voice modifier thing I was like, "No way am I doing that."

    I mean, it was still bloody. Not very sanitary.
