All the gaming greats fall. Warren Spector and his awful Thief 3, Ken Levine and his terrible BioShock.

Bioshock was a great game. Not as good as System Shock 2, but then what is?

BioShock is System Shock 2 with a lot of cool features removed or nerfed and turned into a shallow, circle strafing FPS.

I can’t tell you people how much it warms my heart to see so many express the opinion that while Bioshock was great, it was no System Shock 2.

You guys amaze me sometimes, honestly. You are happy to flap your gums about Halo 3, yet when something like Bioshock is released, an honest attempt at something GOOD, you take a shit on it, and associate anyone with it, no matter how good thier intentions to make a great game, is also dumped on. You people amaze me. Typical elitist gamers. Enjoy your endless stream of half arsed ropey sequals.

I’m a bit tired, and quite hot and flustered at the moment, so I could just be in a mood anyway, and I apologise in advance if I seem harsh but I just wanted to get a rant off my shoulders, and I feel like I should be calling people on thier attitudes, because what I see, honestly, is bull crap. I’m sorry. *shrugs*

...

Sorry to dissagree with people in such a vehement manor, but I feel like it should be said. Some people expect the world, and surprise surprise, when they realize life isn’t like that, it’s unnacceptable.

And Abe, is there a point you want to make or are you going to gripe? Because I was using Halo 3 as an example to prove a point. Do I really have to explain this concept?

The same guy who said BioShock was terrible wrote:

Perhaps you have chosen to accept mediocrity as the new excellence, but others have not.

BioShock is deeply flawed, and for no good reason[...]
