Introduction
The highly anticipated Bioshock, by 2K Boston (formerly known as Irrational Games), was released in late August to high acclaim. Billed as a morality-based first person shooter with RPG elements, it’s art deco styling and intriging mechanic of “Big Daddies” and “Little Sisters” set it apart, and fan groups such as The Cult of Rapture were active and vocal before the game was ever released. The Limited Collector’s Edition, which was “demanded” by fans who voted on what it would contain, was sold by Gamestop and containted a Big Daddy statue, sold out instantly and became instant collector’s items, which unopened still fetch up to $125 too this day. So does Bioshock live up to the hype?
