Bioshock Feature

Welcome to Rapture, the setting for Xbox 360 and PC game “Bioshock”.

Rapture is an underwater world created by a visionary called Andrew Ryan, who made the city so that scientists, artists, philosophers, surgeons etc could all work to their maximum capability without having to curb their work to co-inside with the laws and ideals of the western world, unfortunately things haven’t gone well, and by the time your character gets there the city of Rapture is in a state of despair.

Your arrival in Rapture isn’t exactly planned either – the game begins with you flying miles above the Atlantic, when your plane suddenly dive-bombs, crashing into the sea, conveniently very near to a mysterious lighthouse, which is the entrance to Rapture. Obviously you enter as you have no-where else to go, but if you knew what was in front of you, you may well have stayed outside the lighthouse and waited for rescue.

Once in the depths of Rapture, the true horror of what has happened here is revealed, as the once great city is reduced to a battle field, Splicers (insane genetically modified killers) attack enemies and one another, security systems fire on everyone and Big Daddies (the huge metal dive suit creatures) roam the corridors, protecting their “little Sisters” – little girls who carry huge syringes of Adam (a gene required to get certain objects) and surprise, surprise they are the only source of it in the game.

As you can see the odds aren’t really stacked in your favour, but luckily for you Andrew Ryan invented “Plasmids” a way of genetically enhancing your own body, enabling you to do all manner of things from setting fire to objects, to telekinesis, which allows you to catch mid air bombs, and throw them back at the person throwing it.Bioshock is a First Person Shooter at heart, but its in a different league as it actually has a rich and vivid storyline, is truly scary and involves you like no other game we have ever played
