Hehe, nice review on BioShock. +1 to the Zap 'n' Whack, although I do occasionally use the Revolver if I'm up against a Big Daddy or getting pissed off at those ones that throw bombs at you, or if I just cba to run all the way over to someone. :P

Nice review, short and sweet.

I still don't get why everyone rants about the story, perhaps this is just down to me reading far more epic things, but it didn't impress me one bit, and I saw the twist coming way off. Reason? SYSTEM SHOCK DID IT FIRST!

I basically view Bioshock as shiny System shock

Besides, plot twists don't make a story by any means, it's all about atmosphere and actual events, for me, Bioshock wasn't engaging enough to do that for me, it just seemed like Diablo, hack n slash, at the basic level of gameplay

But hey, just my opinion

I knew about the 'would you kindly' before I ever played the game, and yet it still struck a chord with me when it was 'revealed'.

I'm clearly influenced too much by other stuff I've played *cough*FF7*cough*

But anyway.

NeoTokyo has taken a while due to the fact that a server with players on is so bloody hard to find. Done now though, review shortly, then will be calling for another number!

Also updated my "number of games" digits. Sadly.

Peggle Extreme? Awesome. It was the only reason I bought the orange box really. But then again I saw that TF2 also was lots of fun, so instead I started playing that too much. I could have started playing competetive Peggle Extreme :(
