Since I can't go to Comic-Con I'll look for it in nearby bookstores. But I doubt I'll find it around here... D:

Explain how it was shallow other than the fact that it is in the same genre as Call of Duty and Battlefield. I can't disagree more with your comment.

Sorry bud, but it's up to you to explain how Bioshock is on a higher plane to any other other run and gun FPS, other than the backstory.

Bioshock is my favorite game of all time. I wrote an entire term paper on it for my philosophy class, inspiring my professor to play it. He's now considering teaching it in his class. 'Nuff said.

Hey don't get me wrong, I love Bioshock as well. It created a brilliantly realized world to play in, my only regret is that the encounter was just: run through, guns blazing.
@wanderingpixel...I wrote a 5 page paper in high school about how night of the living dead was the most important event in American history last century. And passed.
Not disagreeing with you (but bot putting bioshock on that high of a pedestal), just wanted to say that.

For us folks looking for this on the cheap, you can pick up the paperback cheap.
@Stinky - As much as BioShock is one of my all time favourite games simply because of the story and design, I can understand your point. It's much like a fetch quest most of the time. You're locked in an area of Rapture until you do a certain task for someone to progress. But many games are like this.
But that's not to say I didn't like it. The back story and design made it a definite playthrough x3.

Spent money on this instead of buying Ice Cream for my girlfriend :D

The rpg esqe elements, plasmids, decisions, strategy(hard with Vita Chambers off) involved etc. Much more in-depth then your average fps and to deny that is silly. Plus having an great and unique story/atmosphere is a big deal so that alone puts it way ahead of a lot of fps.

Might order it off amazon, but there are a couple of other books I want to read before I look into something else.
Despite my previous joke, actually opened me up to the writings of ayn rand. While I can't accept the tea party movements adoration for atlus shrugged, I appreciate some of her philosophIcal outlooks... Then again "money will take you anywhere you want to go, but it cannot replace you as the driver" sounds like bullshit when you look at the level of gluttonous excess some people live in. Now I'm edging into a whole freemarket illusion thing so I'll stop.
