Sigh. The cornered troll, always amusing to observe. Let's see what he does next.

I have to get a maintenance tool to fix this pistol before I can shoot myself. You mean I can't just get ez-mode and have it in perfect condition all the time despite the scenario being that I'm a lone survivor on a ship full of fucking aliens? Woe is me! Tis a sad day for a man of my sort. p_o
Have you ever handled a weapon? I've fired 200 shots out of a shotgun and it worked like a charm. I don't see how being on a spaceship that has Alien Goo in it should make a perfect-condition gun break down after 100 shots.

I never said that I took all of my opinions from that review. Instead, it explains my gripes better than I could.

you cannot even re-assign the keys thats somehow annoying. But you can aim with the mouse, you know you move the crosshair with the mouse. It gives you another way to handle it, a unique way of aiming me thinks. Some years ago i bought an old used VFX1-Cyberhelmet to enjoy the game once again ...

SS2s weapon degradation system was source of discussion, yeah ... i think its overdone and theres a way to disable it. The dev were looking at too many and strange ways to give depth to the game ...

Wow, half a page of discussion of Bioshock, 3 pages of flaming of SS2.

What about all the hungry children in the world?

Indeed.

Back on topic: I found BioShock fairly interesting while I was playing it. A few hours in, it became boring. An hour or so after that, it became downright annoying. By the end, I was ready to just call it quits. After finishing it, I've decided to declare it an awful game.

Summary: BioShock was awful.

Off-topic, Circ wins.

On-topic, I didn't like Bioshock.

Hirohito: I agree, weapon degradation was simply bullshit design. There was a line in the config you could edit to turn that off though, which is how I played through the game.

I'm interested in Bioshock but I'm waiting until it's a super bargain bin buy. Somehow I missed System Shock 1 and 2 which is odd as I've been a PC Gamer since Castle Wolfenstein....in fact....my PC Gaming actually goes back to the Commodore Pet...

In terms of scary atmosphere I think FEAR did a pretty damned good job.

F.E.A.R. was jump-out-and-get-you scary. The only tension was wondering when the next thing would pop up and freak you out. There are way scarier games out there... fuck, I think STALKER is scarier than FEAR sometimes. It's about atmosphere. Throwing a couple bloody bodies around and having some creepy, dark-haired little girl pop up as the lights go out or whatever isn't an acceptable substitute for a properly scary atmosphere.

The two games with the most scary atmosphere imo are Condemned 1, the first half of 2 and the Silent Hill series.
