I haven't played this yet, but is it as good as Portal?
Shit, forgot about that. Second behind Portal 2.

Haven't seen any impressions like that.Is there anybody here who loved BioShock that isn't so hot on this game? Impressions here seem very positive, but I'm skimming as fast as possible to avoid spoilers.
Glad to see people are saying this looks great on PS3, as I'll be playing on that. But does it run all right?
So far, I have some mixed feelings.
The game mechanics feel a lot like Bioshock watered down to appeal to the mass audience. Shields, vocal protagonist, plethora of ammo, mainly fighting human enemies with guns...it just feels off.
That said, Columbia is great and the characters/dialogue are great.
Thanks for that, will jump right in to this!Yes.
So far I have found zero connections between this one and Bioshock 2.
I'm just glad games like this are being made. The circumstances are such that its very difficult for such a game to be made, but here I am playing through it.
You can possess an enemy turret but it probably won't finish the job, and with resource scarcity you'll be limited in how often you can use your vigors to make the job easier.

There's been people who didn't like Bioshock that aren't blown away by this, but it seems any Bioshock fans also like this a lot (in some cases, more).
There's been a couple of people who thought that, including somebody who said the original Bioshock had better combat.
Which is just...nonsense.
No Gods or Kings, Only Ken.
to people playing....bird or cage?
The designs for the Vigor Bottles are assfuck-amazing
I want replicas of all of them, life size
Ken reprises his role as the vending machines right?
"I appreciate a lady who appreciates VALUE!"
Just as good as Bioshock 1.
So theres only one ending correct? Nothing like Bioshock 1?

I have a sneaking suspicion that the Circus of Values is Ken Levine's natural speaking voice.
Only one ending.
What a fucking ending it is, though.
Anyway so far this is probably the best FPS since Half Life 2 IMO, I actually like it better than HL2 so far. Games like this are so rare....I hope Irrational doesn't take this long to develop their next game.
to people playing....bird or cage?
Does it even matter?
Is this game better than Bill Laimbeer's Combat Basketball?

I apologize if this has been asked before but what difficulty would people recommend for first playthrough ?
thanks.
Seinfeld for the Super NES still reigns supreme it seems.It's basically on par with Goonies NES. There's also the Cyndi Lauper connection, which raises both to a greater esteem.
yeah good point, i hate the copy cat game trend these days.Pretty much. He's definitely a game designer that doesn't just go "let's copy those cool movies we saw recently", he does try to both improve himself/build on what he's done and also make it about being a game. The effort alone I can appreciate.
BI is more cutscene heavy than Bioshock (whose twist really did rely on it being a game), but at the same time I think it's really designed for video games, not for "like a movie, but with some shooting bits in between the movie parts".
