'BioShock' May Be the Best Game Ever

BioShock = Best Game Ever?

It came in like a dark horse in the night, slicing through the hype surrounding big-budget titles like 'Halo 3' and 'Rock Band' with a subtle, almost muted pre-release advertising presence. But now, a day away from the official release of 'BioShock' for the Xbox 360 and PC, reviews are rolling in declaring that this might not just be the best game on the Xbox 360 this year, but perhaps the best game of all time.

Review scores consistently place this game as either 100% or damn near perfect, with the lowest review yet seen a very positive 94% from 'Xbox World 360 Magazine'. According to review aggregator GameRankings.com, BioShock has an average score of 99.1%, which is higher than any other game including fan favorites like 'The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time' and 'Resident Evil 4.'

We were lucky enough to spend some quality time over the weekend with this game and, while we're not going to wade into the arguments surrounding "best game EVAR!" (We'll just put up a poll and let you do that), we are quite happy to report that 'BioShock' deserves every positive review and accolade it receives. It's a seriously great game.
