Anyone play this yet? It is absolutely phenomenal so far. I'm only ~2 hours in.

The atmosphere is so intense.

I played the demo and it was pretty insane. My brother bought a full copy and he absolutely loves it.

It's a really sick game

I am about 10 hours in on the Xbox version. It is pretty amazing, but I am terrible at it.

It reminds me of Clive Barker's "Undying." It's so twisted and dark.. I love it. The plasmids are very cool.

I think this is my favorite game. It hit me when I was playing tonight.

I was in this intense fight with a 'Big Daddy', and I suddenly hear Billy Holiday's 'Solitude' coming out of the loudspeakers. The juxtaposition of the music and what was actually happening was just amazing.

Play it. All of you. Now.

If you have played System Shock 1 and 2 like me then you won't find much new things in Bioshock but this doesn't mean it is a bad game...it is bit easier than System Shock but it is as much fun. So, this year I don't think there was a better game.

Just looked at the website, it looks pretty cool. I might have to try it out.
