If you want something that will keep you on the edge of your seat, look no further than Bioshock. Everything about this game breaths atmosphere. The lighting, the setting, the furniture, the carpet, the walls, it seems as if everything was placed to further immerse you into the world of Rapture. The story is simply amazing. With enough depth that you wouldn't think its a video game! The fact that you can customize your character to your hearts content is also amazing. Tons of plasmids to manipulate the world with. Dozens of different genes that can help you hack better, kill better, or just buff up your defenses add up to some of the hardest decisions you have to make. This leaves tons of room for replay. The little sisters also give a pretty substantial choice, do you harvest them and get more Adam (the material that helps you build your character) or do you rescue them and show compassion that is kindly rewarded. The only cons are some minor quibbles about copy protection and that as of now you can only install the game on about 5 machines, but in due time that number is supposed to vanish and you can do as you please. I personally had no issues what-so-ever getting the game to install and run. although it did reset all my graphical, audio, and key settings once, but I mean come on it takes like 30 secs to straighten that stuff out.
