Bioshock for the PC
Ok, this game is amazing. Believe the hype and believe the reviews. The story, crazily good. The setting is perfect. The graphics are top notch. The action is top notch. The choices are difficult. The next best thing to Half Life 2.
Now that I got that out of the way... people need to stop the self-serving bitching and whining about the whole launch debacle.
Yes, its a new game, yes its going to have issues.
For those that can't install it properly or getting crashes, much like every PC release, wait for a patch to come out.
For those who cry about the widescreen, oh noes, you are missing an extra inch of monitor space. YOU HAVE A FUCKING WIDESCREEN. YOU HAVE MORE MONITOR SPACE. The game isnt stretched out to fit widescreen, ITS MADE FOR WIDESCREEN.
For those who complain about the install/uninstall problem. Why do people keep saying they have been lied too? 2k stated you can have 2 installations at any one time. You install once, you lose an installation, you uninstall it, you gain it back. "It didnt work at launch" you say? It worked for some people but only those who didnt get it to work are the vocal ones. Its a bug, it will get fixed. Now they've raised it to 5 installs and people are still bitching.
For those who complain about Securom. It may be a shitty way of handling piracy, but its not intrusive and its not part of some conspiracy to take over your computer and steal your information. "OMG IT INSTALLS HIDDEN FILES AND WRITES REGISTRY KEYS" yea no shit, its fucking Windows, what doesnt fucking install registry keys? Why dont you turn on hidden files and folders and see how much other hidden shit is on your computer. "ROOTKIT ROOTKIT ROOTKIT" until someone shows INDISCERNABLE EVIDENCE that the files that secruom copied onto your computer are taking information of you and your computer and running hidden processes to take control of your kernal, then dont fucking complain.
I got the game on Steam. I walked into my house at 5:30pm EST on August 21st and unlocked my game. I went to dinner and came back and played Bioshock and have been for the last week with no problems. With no crashes. With no complaining.
Chill out. PC gamers should be accustomed to knowing patches come out for games.
