Bioshock General Discussion ( Xbox 360 )

He gives you one more prize, then he tells you to GTFO. I wanted whatever was in the case, and I figured he had the key, so I ended up fighting and killing him anyway. You know the two glass cases in the Atrium? The prize he gives you is in the right dome, and IIRC it's Medical Expert 2. But no, you aren't required to fight him.

Hahaha...I picked up the key and didn't even do anything with it. Went right on to the next mission and quit (mind must've been fried...combo of being so early in the morning, and having gone on 3 straight hours of playing by then). I was just so surprised when I hit him and something actually happened...thats awesome.

Also, regarding Big Daddy's - hack a nearby turret. The Daddy will destroy it in short order, but not without a fair bit of damage to itself. It also doesn't shoot at you if the turret is shooting at it.

Truly excellent game, one of the best i have ever played. I think the demo is different from the full game as they wanted to stick in as much as possible into the Demo.

yep. On Major Nelsons podcast ken lavigne said they put some thing in the demo that weren't in that place in the full game just to show people what you can do in the game.

mine still hasn't arrived! but the postie hasnt been so theres still a chance of getting it today, if i dont get it today im gonna have to message Game and find out whats gone wrong

DrunknMunky have you got yours yet?

Should we lift the Spoiler tags, since It's the official release day today. Then everyone must know by now, spoilers are included in the thread.

I vote no, I'm not picking up my copy for about a week (damned payday) and I don't want to miss out on the discussion about the game (how good it is, not what's in it)

wooo it just arrived, now im gonna open it and see if my big daddy was broken

edit he doesnt look broken but im keeping him in his packaging for now

i think we should just keep using spoiler tags, there not hard or slow to use

I got the game yesterday after the hours. I got the XBOX version of it and I must say - this game is going to keep me playing it for a long time. After Gears this is the first game that makes me so excited and keeps me playing without getting bored at some point. This year I've played Call of Duty 2, Prey, Darkness but each of it after 1.5-2h of playing gets me real bored, except the Darkness maybe...The atmosphere, the dialogue, graphics - everything's perfect. And also because of the Vita chambers I'm playing it on hard - so it can last longer, buts its god damn hard. The game is kinda linear but with lots of options - if you want to explore. The idea is somewhat like in GTA - "What if I..." which appeals to me. Also, the demo of the Bioshock is different than the full, i think the authors put some extra stuff in it just to show the people some bits of what you'll find in the actual version.

Everybody, this is a must have game. Go for it!

How do you get the Medical Expert 2 out of the other dome? I got the chest by killing him and taking the key ... are you not just supposed to kill him? lol

Woot, my copy arrived this morning. My internet has been down all day though and this is the first I've been able to connect all day.

The tip of my BG's drill was broken, but I've jsut glued it back on for now until they (hopefully) setup a exchange scheme. The box GAME sent in though was ruined, looks like water got to it pretty bad, the Royal Mail even put it in a plastic bag and security tie which I suppose is good of them. Wasn't too pleased though, the box is a bit bashed in one of the corners and a crease down the front/bottom of the box.

Enough of that though, the game is fantastic! I'm not quite sure where I've played up to, but I'm on some mission before I can enter the Fishery (sp?) Killing BD's and Little Sister's is awesome though :laugh: Best way I've found is to either use hacked turrets and just blast them with shotgun and incinerate or use telekinesis to catch/throw grenades from Splicers :cool:

Yeah, that's what I said. He goes through his whole speech and then opens it up for you. Then he tells you to leave. I wanted whatever was locked up, so I killed him and got the key as well.

Do all Big Daddys have a little sister? I just killed one and I couldn't find her. (I could of sworn I saw one earlier)

Every now and then he puts the Little Sister into the ducts, if you kill him while she's int he wall then you won't get her. You must wait for another big daddy to spawn then kill him while she's out with him.

Hey glad you are liking the game. Sorry you had to wait until today to get it. I'm sure you will be able to get your BD Figure fixed as they are going to replace them soon :)

Honestly it doesn't bother me that much, I have some model glue from when I used to play warhammer and fixed it up pretty well. It will do for now :yes:

Just finished playing for a few hours, and reached the Arcadia level. This game just gets more and more grogeous! Having so much fun playing it :woot:

just finished it... fontaine was really weak... i only used one health kit in the entire battle against him! although to be fair i did have a fully loaded and upgraded grenade launcher. i'm gonna play through on hard now to try and get the rest of the achievements... i don't like the "invent 100 items" one though... or the jackpot one. it would've been nice if you could continue roaming around the game after killing fontaine, but i suppose it'd be too easy if you're a big daddy

Yeah, I've noticed that too and it's pretty annoying.

Glad I am not the only one , may make a post on the official site so it gets fixed cause it really is way off for me and its easy to fix. Can't believe its happening in the first place really, its the only fault i can find in the game so far

    • If they don't sell enough of the 1st gen then there won't be a 2nd gen
    • Epic fail, should've added an eSata port on the back, also if the memory/NVME are soldered then they're hardly gonna sell any, first thing most people do with their Steamdeck is, or used to be, replacing the NVME with a 2TB one.
    • GEEKOM kicks off Prime Day Sale with discounts up to 30% on Intel and AMD mini PCs by Steven Parker GEEKOM has kicked off its Prime Day Sale letting you save up to 30% on mini PCs in every price class.

    • Nice to see! Especially now with Arm64 VMs getting more popular and sometimes even cheaper than traditional x86 ones in datacenters.
