I’ve sadly never been able to play Bioshock, being a poor, starving girl, but I would really like a copy! I’m regularly stuck in my room with illness and videogames make for great company! *cough cough* Bioshock, I hear, is one of the best.
Yours, in hope,

As much as I loved the varying water effects in this game, the most memorable, intense moment was by far the first encounter with a Big Daddy. After so much hype and publicity revolving around these neutral defenders, setting one up with a bunch of traps and then having it charge at me after none of them worked was both exciting and terrifying at the same time. Not many games can offer that sort of immersion, so it would be nice to taste it once more before returning to Rapture in the sequel.

I have never had the opportunity to play this game. I do not play a lot of games but I have enjoyed picking some up and trying new ones. I would very much like to try this one and see whether or not it would be a game I enjoy. Maybe my comic shop fans would enjoy it more. We could give it away as a gift in a contest just like you are doing. Either way I would play it first.

Early on in the game I entered a room. That got full of steam. I couldn’t see anything in front of me. It started to clear up and as I turned my character around. Standing there before me was a guy in a surgical mask, just staring at me. I leaped out of my chair and screamed. Ahhh! Then in anger. I then started cursing at the game. After a while I started laughing at myself. I don’t get scared that easily, but this got me good.

I can’t win but…The scariest time for me was just after starting the EMP bomb a corpse got up. Jump right up and the wife came upstairs to ask what was up. Every time a corpse got up the whole game I got a shiver.

When I played Bioshock, it reminded me of my first puppy…
It was really fun, but I sucked at taking care of it…and so it died. I would love a chance to save my puppy…or play Bioshock again… >_>

I started playing Bioshock for the first time 5 months ago. My brother works for Sony so he has this giant LCD TV and this impressive sound system. I don’t play many games, but someone suggested it so we got it on game fly. I was home alone when I played it. I’m not used to first person shooters, and so from the opening of the chick with the sickle hands dragging across my sphere (for which I nearly pee’d my pants) to the point in Neptunes Bounty where the womans voice is hauntingly calm and the shadow of her and a baby carriage is projected on a wall, I was thoroughyl disturbed (don’t play it with a surround sound system, I implore you.) shortly after which I stopped playing altogether.

My Bioshock story is the actual Bioshock story as the game was based on my real life adventures I had at Rapture City when I was in an alternate 1960 do to a rather inconvenient flux capacitor accident.
Since 2K screwed my out of any royalty money (they used some fancy legal jargon stating that events of an alternate timeline never occurred from this timeline’s perspective so my case wouldn’t hold up in any court) I should at least get to play the game, right?

Hi!
I never played with BioShock, but seen a lot of nice vidz from it and heared only goods. I’d love to try it, thanks a lot for the contest!
