'BioShock' May Be the 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.

It is hard to say best game ever, since there are so many genres of games available. Best First Person Shooter Ever??? Perhaps. It is a pretty amazing game. All of the elements that make a good game are there. Storyline, graphics, sound, environment, gameplay... I could go on. Would I put it in my top 10 favorite games ever? Most likely.

I would go ahead and say it is one of the best games i have ever played. The pace was perfect and the mood was amazing. I liked it better than Halo 3 and just as much as RE4. Great game...
