Apr 21, 2021Playing through it for the fourth time now, 2021. Games this good is not made nowadays. Damn its good. Gameplay, Setting (Rapture) & World. Together with TW3, Bioshock 1 & 2 is still the best game purchases I´ve ever made.

Aug 14, 2018Bioshock is one of those games which hold up even to todays standards, and it was very impressive graphically and story wise for its time. The whole story was truly enjoyable and almost movie like, because a lot of the scenes were cinematic in nature. It was this unique gaming experience that I will never forget. Tremendous game.
-
Mar 24, 2019Had relly good time with this game when it came out to macOS.
Story telling is very good movie style storytelling and gameplay is very intence when you disable Vita-Chambers and you were bit dependet to mix ordanary wepons with plasmid when you fight brutal enemy swarms. only thing that i was not impressed was the pipe game hacking.
this is one of my go to game when playing old games. -

Jun 28, 2023A masterpiece. Even in 2023 feels and looks like a masterpiece. I played it on a release 16 years ago and replayed it now. It was like a new run, an awesome run.

May 31, 2020Great story. The weapon types are very good and usefully. The atmosphere is awesome. The underwater concept is very successful. The controller are not bad. Just few control very useless and hard. After half of the game the hack game-play is very bored. But generally very good game.
-
Feb 11, 2019Atmospheric, Dark with amazing story line, nice characters and cool innovative gameplay.
The game offers a pretty unique experience and is a must play in my opinion.
One of the best games of all time.
9.5/10
A shame the sequels were not on this level. -

Mar 5, 2019Ein Spiel mit einer wirklich guten Story und einem extrem coolen Plottwist, der einen die teils etwas linearen Abschnitte wieder vergessen lässt.
-
Oct 31, 2022Fun short game. It's not scary but it contains horror elements. The environment and music from the 50's gave the world a unique horror touch.
-

Jun 4, 2019Gorgeous setting, good combat mechanics and the most interesting story told in an FPS to this date.
-
Jul 7, 2019One word: MASTERPIECE! Bioschock is one of the best games I've ever played, game play, storyline, sound, and graphics all top notch, loved the water effects. I put 9 because I expected something more in the final battle .

Jan 17, 2022많은 세월이 흘렀지만 이 물 그래픽 하나만큼은 언제나 장인정신이 느껴진다.. 세계관 표현 하나만으로 반은 씹어먹고 가는 명작......

Aug 21, 2023Grimy brilliance. One of the greatest of its time and surely a classic in my book.

Sep 6, 2022Play this game and then come back to me and tell me it isn't perfect.
Actually, I'll save you the time, you won't! -
Sep 29, 2020Не моя тематика игры, но проходится с интересом, сюжет неплох, графика средненькая, но геймплей заставляет вас проходить её до конца, 8/10 обязательна для прохождения!

Jul 19, 2022An al time classic with rich atmosphere, smart mechanics and intriguing plot, one of the best games of 2000-x.
-
May 26, 2020This game is a reference in first person action games. An incredible story and equally incredible mechanics.
-
Feb 1, 2020An all-tme classic shooter, and series. Still looks great today due to the fantastic art-style which captures the age perfectly. Great gun play, great story, great visuals and atmosphere.
-
Feb 11, 2020Masterful game with amazing storytelling told mostly through audio logs. Combat is great as well but has some flaws.

Chances are this is the best game you will ever play in your life. -
Mar 1, 2020Confesso que no inicio é bem chato... Um pouco dificil e repetitivo. A medida que vai jogando e entendendo, o jogo fica viciante! historia show de bola. Um pouco dificil de entender pois a simulacao de audio antigo atrapalha e acompanhar as legendas atirando fica dificil...

Apr 24, 2020정말 호러 FPS 너무 싫어하는데도, 깊은 세계관, 섬뜩한 연출과 그래픽, 다양한 무기를 활용한 게임 진행과 커스터마이징 및 업그레이드 그리고 마지막 스토리까지 완벽 그 자체다. 게임 하는 내내 바이오 쇼크의 랩쳐 안에서 푸욱 담겨져 진짜로 살았던 것만 같다.
-
Apr 16, 2021Я бы где-то 8.5 из 10 поставил. Игра хоть и душновата в плане геймплея, но в плане сюжета - это отличная критика капитализма в игровой форме.

+Great and interesting world
+Plasmids offer a lot of variety in combat
+Good story
+Good difficulty on normal
+Memorable characters
Con
-Hacking mechanic can get annoying and repetitive
-Predictable plot twists
-Ending feels a bit rushed -
May 5, 2020While the world building is great, the gameplay is great, and the concepts are unique, I do have to admit this game is a bit overrated being a touch pretentious and trying way to hard with trying to make moral ‘choices’ that aren’t really choices someone would make IRL.
-
Sep 4, 2022Great graphic performance in 2007, fun gameplay, diverse weapon and skill system, and most important, the intriguing story with immersive atmosphere, made this milestone in game history.
-
May 13, 2020Great story which is sadly undermined by the very poorly aged gameplay. Luckily the 2nd game improved on the gameplay front.
-

Jan 11, 2022It is a game that should definitely be played with its story, atmosphere, tension and character.

Jul 19, 2020Highly recommended game that leaves you with many jaw dropping moments, plot twists, and epic fights with a big daddy. Great atmosphere with the underwater city to explore and very beautiful design choices.
-
Mar 15, 2023super game, unfortunately the enemies infinite spawning feature every where prevent you from enjoying the amazing world of the game. The story is really strong, but another time the **** enemies every where prevent u even to hear the dialogues lot of time..
-
Jul 27, 2020Play it. Play it right now. It will be worth your time. It's fun to play even if the levels get boring.
-
Jul 28, 2020Excellent game, with amazing story and very reasonable gameplay. Truly a masterpiece.
-
Apr 16, 2021Bioshock is one of the best shooter games ever released. Its clever and thrilling story is a blockbuster in comparison to many of the primitive and unimaginative shooter games released around the same time. A wonderful steam-punk mix between FPS and RPG. Must have!
-
Jun 15, 2022A masterpiece. The controls are a bit dated and unintuitive but i think combat is rather secondary in this lore rich world. It really reminds me of dark messiah of might and magic.
-
Nov 17, 2020İnanılmaz bir dünya yaratmış. Harika bir hikaye anlatıcılığı. Aksiyon biraz takoz dursa da dönemine göre epey iyi.

Nov 29, 2020"2K"in 2007-də çıxardığı bir əfsanə."Bioshock" dövrünün ən fərqli first-person shooter oyunu idi.Adamlar hekayə,silah və güç çeşidliliyi cəhətdən əllərindən gələn hərşeyi ediblər.Hekayə 1960-cı illərdə sualtı şəhər olan "Rapture"da keçir.16 saata bütöv xəritəni gəzmək olar.

May 17, 2021Just like Half-Life 2, BioShock is another experience that you should play before you die. The Expertly-written story and the perfect atmosphere of Bioshock makes it one of the best artistic works in the world.

Mar 18, 2023Визуал превосходный у игры, для своего времени. Геймплей интересный, но боевке не хватает комбинаций плазмидов. Сама история мира прикольная, очень интересно собирать записи и строить цепочку событий.

Apr 10, 2021This game isn't just another first person shooter game. The story is so good. This game proves video games are art. The way Rapture looks shows the disaster that happened. The lore is so interesting. The story pulls you in and I begged for the story not to end. This game is a must play and is a masterpiece.
-
Jul 11, 2022The story is great, and it has one of the best twists in all of gaming and the setting and level designs were great the gameplay is fun though it has flaws

Apr 27, 2021Picked this game up during a steam sale and have zero regrets. Still holds up in 2021 and truly marked itself as a classic. The athletics are amazing, followed by the voice acting and the music it is truly on my list of top 3 games. Worth it? YESYESYESYESYES!

Jul 12, 2021My original review for this game was a 7 - This was my first time playing this game and I couldn't help but return back to it or think about it constantly when not playing the game.
The setting is beautiful however it does feel very linear. The body Mods are cool. The story is amusing yet unfortunately predictable ending. Beautiful game -
Sep 9, 2022First of all the map the world is amazing well built and very distinctive. The story is amazing. The game play not perfect but it's satisfying.
-
Jun 20, 2021This game is great and aged really well the only thing i hate about this game is the simulation sickness.
-
Jun 25, 2021Will always be one of my favorite titles of all time. The story... the environment... the gameplay... its all so enjoyable! This game makes me feel good while playing it. It does a really good job at putting the player into this crazy under the sea city full of horror and beauty. I don't think there's another game that I've played through so many times. 10/10 for me!

Aug 27, 2021Отличная игра 2007 года. Прошло более 10 лет с момента ее прохождения, но я до сих пор помню эмоции от прохождения. Атмосферная, проработанная, с интересным миром. Советую к прохождению.

A dark and astonishing masterpiece...I spend my career, and my gaming life, waiting for a moment when a game just astonishes me, when I can't believe what I'm seeing, what I'm doing. BioShock has five. [Sept 2007, p.66]
-
The hours spent playing this masterpiece were the perfect encapsulation of why videogaming is such a favourite waste of time for so many of us. Thrilling, terrifying, moving, confusing, amusing, compelling, and very very dark. BioShock isn't simply the sign of gaming realising its true cinematic potential, but one where a game straddles so many entertainment art forms so expertly that it's the best demonstration yet how flexible this medium can be. It's no longer just another shooter wrapped up in a pretty game engine, but a story that exists and unfolds inside the most convincing and elaborate and artistic game world ever conceived.
-
There is art here, despite what many would say isn't possible with games, from Roger Ebert to game designers like Hideo Kojima... BioShock stands as a monolithic example of the convergence of entertaining gameplay and an irresistibly sinister, engrossing storyline that encompasses a host of multifaceted characters. This is an essential gaming experience.
