is the bioshock scary?

No, it is not remotely scary in the slightest.

Its a fun game with great atmosphere, and it has its scary moments (i dont think you will crap your pants though, its not that bad... you should check it out.

Scary? Bioshock :lol: ?

No, not at all. He's probably teasing you, or he's confusing bioshock with dead space.

It has some very rare scary parts, but nothing that will make you scream until your throat explodes.

The mouse acceleration problems were very scary, if they haven't fixed that by now, don't bother.

It's all garnish and no dinner, very overrated game. I'd give it a miss if I were you.

at first it has a creepy atmosphere but you get used to it quickly

Meh just despertly trying to rip off ss2

Bioshock was the spritual sequel to SS2 and developed by the same company (Irrational Games now known as 2k)

Nope, get System Shock 2 for that.Swiftstrike5

Bioshock has a great atmosphere. Definitely creepy. Scary though? Not really. Bioshock is designed to make you think, not scare the crap out of you.Penguinchow

It's not scary it's just too creepy for its own good. I hate how you would hear the screams of the splicers coming at you, but your gun wasn't strong enough to kill them in two shots, so you just had to wait till they got close then BAM hit them with a wrench.

This is an opinion. I for one do not find horror movies scary, at all, not even the slightest scare in any way shape or form... BUT, i wouldn't tell someone that they are not scary, they may be to some people, i know people who are scared by them.

Now, Bioshock does set a creepy mood, it has some jumpy moments and it does deliver a horrorish atmosphere. There is one part with some manaquiens which i found to be more "Scary" than anything in Dead space. I would say that no games are scary, but thats not to say there isn't an intent to be scary, and Bioshock does intend to have scary moments, even if you are personally not scared by entertainment, like me.

If my sister in law played games she would cry if she played Bioshock, she is scared of everything.

scary, no. creepy, definitely. specially the bit with the surgeon!!:)

I agree on BioShock being creepy and atmospheric, plus there were a few moments where I got a bit startled, but it is not the least scary. Games like Condemned are much scarier.

it is very scary for me, but i dont watch horror movies or play horror games. the atmosphere is amazingly creepy expecially with headphones on at night, the disturbed baddies are always rambling some psychotic crap.

Uncanny is the word! biggest_loser

I thought BioShock was pretty darn scary too.

You will be just walking along a deserted corridor, then suddenly some crazy zombieish chick will leap out of no where and smack you in the face with a wrench and you have to shoot her in the head. So it has that sort of, jump out of your skin/crap you pants scariness.

The screams of horror and insane, cackling laughter that echo from the background. And the constant "dripping" sounds all the time. Atmospheric scariness.

Some genuinely disturbing characters in the game imo as well. Psychological scariness, (crazy people freak me out).

I would definately call it scary.

There are parts where it feels creepy and scary but not the game in general. Yes, some of you know what I'm talking about. The one with being in that 'COLD ROOM' and collecting 'something'from the table and after that . . . :)

Nah.

It's neither scary nor a good game. I recommend you find a copy of System Shock 2 instead.

Since when have a game like Bioshock been scary xD?...

Nooo...it is not scary at all maybe exotic or twisted thats the correct expression

and even if....how old are u :D??
