BioShock demo up on XBL!

[Squirrelly]

Thoroughly enjoyed the demo myself. You can certainly tell the developers behind System Shock are behind this simply due to the atmosphere of the game. The opening sequence was gruesome yet utterly beautiful at the same time. Pre-ordered my copy.

Valve's Raising the Bar was made better imho - more information and on the plot sticking informations. Also some of the concepts looked like alternated copies from there (Mr. Friendly for example).

On the other hand the concept is still nice and creepy. Maybe i'll pick up the game (just have to wait if imports are uncut)

I really like the look of the Bioshock. Levels have very strong atmopshere. Although when I downloaded the artbook, I was dissapointed. Their conceptual work seems rather "student work" looking for majority of drawings (enemies and environments). Valve's Raising The Bar is on a whole different level. I believe if they included more 3D renders with sketches it would balance it out better. Comparison between concept and 3D are a great visual representation of the art.

You do have a wrench in OP4.

I can't wait for the art book to finish downloading

op4 isn't half-life. it's op4

[D3ads]

Which is a Half-Life expansion...

You started off with a wrench in Prey as well, if it aint broke.. why fix it?

Because people whine.

First thing I did yesterday after being away for 2 weeks was rush to my 360 and download the demo. Been having my doubts about whether the game was gonna be as good as its been getting hyped up to be, but I'll have to give into it now. The demo was brilliant (Best demo I've tried in years tbh, I so wanted more!), and if what all the reviews are saying then its got to be some of the very best of 07 (Which is saying a lot with a Q3-4 this packed).

And yeah, that meta score is absurdly sick. When was the last time you heard IGN actually pulling a meta score down?
