BioShock™
A shooter set in Rapture, a ruined Art Deco city under the sea. You mix guns with fire, ice and electric plasmids, hack machines and choose whether to save or harvest the girls the Big Daddies escort, which changes the ending.
Why play it now
When you want a story-driven campaign with an unsettling atmosphere and fights you can approach in many different ways.
Who it's for
For anyone who enjoys narrative shooters and piecing together a city's fate from recordings.
When not to pick it
If you want a challenge: by default dying barely matters, as a Vita-Chamber revives you (they can be turned off).
