Steams Weekend Deal - 50% off Bioshock

BioShock is a shooter unlike any you've ever played, loaded with weapons and tactics never seen. You'll have a complete arsenal at your disposal from simple revolvers to grenade launchers and chemical throwers, but you'll also be forced to genetically modify your DNA to create an even more deadly weapon: you. Injectable plasmids give you super human powers: blast electrical currents into water to electrocute multiple enemies, or freeze them solid and obliterate them with the swing of a wrench.

The offer Ends Sunday July 27th

Fine deal, 27.49$ for one of the best games in 2007 is a great buy.

Defiantly one of my favorites games of all time.It's great to see a FPS be somewhat different from the usual in many ways.

For me its now far better now due to an upgrade to a 9600GT which was given to me by a good buddy of mine..

well worth steams current offer.

With Bioshock... (along with most games i have) 1440 x 900 which is the max rez my lcd will support.maxed out,and runs very well.Only minimal slowdown in places.

The one exception is Crysis.This is a little lower but with a mix of high and medium specs..The other problem with crysis is when i start the game (either from the short cut or dvd insert) is it always starts in Window mode.I need to enter options and select Full Screen and apply..I can not figure this problem out.This never happened with my previous 7900GTX TDH.

I beat crysis and I have to say I found it rather boring to be honest. I was a huge fan of Farcry too........

Hopefully Farcry 2 is better.

I don't mind crysis tbh but Bioshock is far more entertaining..Also FC2 looks interesting.

The 9600GT came with Company of Heroes,although im not a stratagy fan this is pretty good so far.. even though i have only just got passed omagha beach.

If you haven't, play through the tutorial. Life saver.

i have not skipped the tutorials of COH ! they were very enjoyable & informative.But so far it is looking good.

Just because i said i have only just got past Omaha beach,this does not mean i have taken 4 days to do so.I actually past it in 15 minutes or so.

I have been a little busy recently to go back onto COH,but i intend to do so soon.Hopefully later today.

Im sure he was..

It not a dig at bluemak,i had just returned home from a family party after that.Probably had a can or two more than i should of..

Looking forward to see how the game turns out,as i said im not a fan of this game usually & it is taking some time to get used to it.
