Where do I start with this masterpiece? As soon as the first scene rolls in, you know you're in for an action-packed, deeply atmospheric, intelligent gaming experience! To start off with - the Graphics. Truly breathtaking! The plane crash at the beginning wouldn't be as intense if it wasn't for the immersive fire and water effects. The lighting effects are also fantastic, shining through and on the surface. The graphics are the best I've seen in any game.
Next - the Gameplay. The gameplay was solid, with character customisations to the roof! The splicing is excellent, and the combat system works effectively! My only criticism is the lack of a 'block' button. Like Condemned. That would have been excellent, as it is very difficult to survive on Hard mode.
Next - the Story. It..is...remarkable! From the moment it begins, your trapped; spiralling into the world of Bioshock! Packed with twists and turns, this is one of the best stories ever created for a game! Or movie for that matter. And incredible, intelligent plot form start to finish.
Next - the Sound. Without the implausible sound effects and the captivating music, the astounding atmosphere would be inconceivable! The soundtrack is unlike any other. 'Nuff said! And finally - the Atmosphere. Beyond words. Seriously, I cannot describe it. You actually feel like you are in Rapture, fearing for your life and fearful of the Splicing mutants that roam the abandoned halls of Rapture. The Big Daddy's are terrifying, and their connection with the Little Sisters is strong! They would lay down their life for them, which is unique to see something so massive protecting a tiny little girl. Like I said - beyond words.
In conclusion, buy this game. Now. Right now. What the hell are you still doing here? Go buy it!

The first time I saw this was Christmas 2005, and I absolutely loved it. Having played the game, I can see how much more depth there is into the characters emotions in the movie. James Remar was brilliant as Ajax, as was Michael Beck as Swan.
The fighting scenes were incredible, and the bathroom fight was one of the best fights in film history! Acting was amazing, and Cyrus was fantastic.
All in all, Walter Hill did an amazing job on one of the greatest film of all time. I heard they were doing a remake, which is set in 2006 in LA. It will obviously never match up to the brilliant cult classic - The Warriors. Can you dig it?
