Big Daddy
Not just a reference to the fact that I’m overeating again this week (for no other reason than I can) but also so that I can mention in passing that I picked up a copy of Bioshock for a mere 15 squid. It’s a stunning looking game and yes, does play very much like it’s “spiritual” predecessors, System Shock 1/2. So much so that I’m expecting an identical story twist half way through. It is extremely atmospheric and more than a little scary.
I don’t quite know how I’m managing to get the time to play it (couple of hours in the evening being with an extremely calm and undemanding 5 day old daughter probably) but I’m looking forward to exploring more of Rapture.
Hmm…I got this on Steam for cheaps over Christmas, but I’ve recently stopped playing. It just…doesn’t handle well. It just feels a little too much like a port from a console. It has good bihts, but I wasn’t as blown away as everyone said I should have been. Deus Ex impressed me far more.
