Posts at TTLG indicate that the game is just a straight up shooter. A good, relatively open shooter but still just a standard shooter. I think a Swedish journalist also said as much some time ago in a preview. Considering Ken Levine repeatedly said it was possible to play the game stealthily, I'm not too happy. You can't even walk in the game, and the splicers, supposedly don't react to any sounds you make.

There's been complaining all over the official forums. It's seems to me, like it's just the case of a very vocal minority making things seem worse than it is, though.

It was the whole point of System Shock 2, and should be the point of Bioshock. You're starting to sound like Hades. Hey!

That's a pro in my book!

I'm still only getting the game on the 31st...

If you'd like to hear it I can sing it for you. It's called "Daisy." Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do. I'm half crazy all for the love of you. It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage. But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two.

I think it was the door code for LGS.

I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question about it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I'm a... fraid.

OPG is the best argument in favour of evolution, ever.

Done.

wtf

Your avatar seems quite appropriate.

Apparently, the release date in Italy is also the 31st. I'm willing to bet that this is the actual release date for continental Europe.

That's the date for the release of Bioshock in Portugal, Spain, and I think France, as well. I wouldn't be surprised if the 31st was the release date in all of Europe except the UK. Edit: The release date in France is, indeed, the 31st.

Zoma is now, officially, a little bastard. At least until I get the game myself.

At least Sawyer was.

Apparently, you don't really need those drivers for Bioshock, unless you have a dx10 system.

Who are the star players? And what are everyone's individual positions? I want to humble you all with my awesome footballing skills.

Tried the demo. Seems to run fine on my system with everything maxed out at 1280x960. Fraps indicates between 20 and 30 fps, though. The graphics are sweet and the ambiance seems to be genuinely scary. The gameplay seems to be mostly run&guntm with added plasmids. I guess it could be described as a more actiony System Shock 2. The faster pace kind of clashes with the scary atmosphere, though. Here's hoping the full game plays differently...
