You then descend into Rapture, a city hidden city beneath the sea. Constructed as an idealistic society for a hand picked group of scientists, artists and industrialists. The idealism is no more most of the people are dead or change in to some genetic altered creature. The once great city is now the city of the dead. BioShock is a unique game that mixes a spine chilling sound and music. Sounds of or random half crazy former Rapture citizen chanting, or footsteps of something approaching can be heard ad over all realism effect to a city that is nearly dead.

Buy this game and love it, undoubtedly playing through it at least two or four times. There is a huge variety of choices you can make coupled with the genuine consequences that follow require numerous play throughs just so you can see what happens if you try something different. The game is rather short. It takes around 25 hours to complete more or less depending what you do. You may just be looking around being amazed by the art, sea life, under water effects and detail and all it's haunting artistic glory. Put simply, BioShock is an unparalleled achievement. No other game comes even remotely close to it in terms of raw emotional connection.Read full review
Fantastic special edition of an amazing video game. The game is possibly the best of all time . The extra features are all great including the music and the making of DVD. The statue of the Big Daddy will look great on any collectors shelf as well. Incredible value for any fan of the games.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
the game is out of this world. and the limited edition its great. the big daddy figurine was broken, but hopefully i'll get it fix, and the soundtrack cd its really nice. the special features is great also, its like 40 minutes long, and ken levine and other developers talk about the making process for bioshock.
even though i bought this game 3 years after it was released it still is a great game (i already own it on the PS3) i bought this for my collection after getting the even more impressive BioShock 2 limited boxed set, perfect for any BioShock fan
I'll start off with a short review of the game itself - this is one of the best FPS's ever released, and is still amazing today. Great story, great gameplay, great msuic. If you're looking for an amazing game to blow your mind, this is it. That being said, you can now get this game for a few dollars on Steam. The limited edition is very expensive nowadays, and starts off at ~35 pounds for a used copy. The contents are very well made - a very detailed steelbook case in the European edition, an an amazing steel-cast big daddy - one of the best figurines I've seen in limited editions so far, and one of the rare ones that isn't made of plastic. There is also a short lp and a 'making of' dvd, but they can probably be found on Youtube. At today's asking price, this extras are definitely just for the collectors who are willing to pay good money for them. There is nothing in-game here, that might make your gaming experience any better - just a steel case and statue, and stuff that can be found online. The rest of you, hurry and get a low price digital copy of this, and get playing.Read full review
