Eh, your opinions. My issues with it:
-It was just a dumbed down System Shock 2. Same enemies, less powers, less RPG stuff, simpler plot, better setting.
-It was ridiculously easy. Even the Big Daddies rarely presented a challenge if you did the preparation. If you did die, you'd come back with (basically) no penalty at a Vita Chamber and could go attack again.
-The "moral choices" thing was total bullshit. Murdering little girls or not is not a "difficult moral decision," and the bears they gave you more than made up for the lower Adam you got for saving them. Black and White moral decisions are more than a decade old. Something new please.
-The plot fell to shreds at the end (honestly one of the worst endings I've ever seen), and the game just felt like a job after confronting Ryan. The objectivism was poorly handled as well.
Overall, a good game, but with a lot of flaws. Maybe an 8.5-8.9 on a 10 point scale. |
I disagree with most of your points, though it is very much a matter of opinion.

True indeed!
And you can make one more tick for me next to Naz.
It was a good game, but FAR from the hype is was given. I think now that we are something like 9 months past its release its a bit tough for people to be as hyped as they were then.
Personally I would take any installment from the HL series over Bioshock...yes even HL1 (I'm sure the graphic whores will be up in arms). But like I said it was still a good game, its just not in any "best of" category for me tbh.
