So I have recently rejoiced with a game called BioShock (I bought it during black friday). I've only played it once and it was a short lived experience..
This first-person shooter takes place in an underwater city called Rapture founded by a business man, Andrew Ryan. Despite the great technology in this game, it's set around the 1960's. You play as Jack, the main character who was first introduced as a survivor of a plane crash which conveniently took place near Rapture's secret entrance. You enter Rapture as an only hope and is guided by a man named Atlas via radio. You then set off to seek higher ground and help Atlas save his family. You encounter splicers (think intelligent zombie), Little Sisters (girl displayed in picture who harvest something called ADAMs), Big Daddies (also in picture, they protect Little Sisters), plasmids (rearranges your genetic code to have an 'ability'), and tons of machinery (turrets and stufffffffff). Read BioShock's synopsis (since I suck at summarizing).
This game scares the bloody hell out of me. It's so eerie. Especially since it's set in the 1960's and you can hear splicers around saying weird ass shit. I kind of think the Big Daddies are cute because they protect the Little Sisters and they're just so adorable :> But I have to kill them D: bawwwww. Nevertheless, badass game. Interesting storyline with plot twists. Apparently it was inspired by the novel I wanted to read, "Atlas Shrugged".
I'm nowhere near done with the game since I can only play during broad daylight or if someone's with me, harharhar. I'm such a whimp. But yeah. I'm fucking psyched for BioShock2. That's about it.

Hope you'll follow up with a comparison of the book with the game.
ReplyDeleteIt does look scary but its still intrigues me with so many new concepts. I like how it is based off of a book~
