  The case of the Bioshock

  
  It seems many people i know have been going on rants on how "there are no goodgames compared to the old days" or"there is so much crapin gaming." This is of course, what I'd like to call a case of the bioshock. Bioshock is truely a masterpiece, a awesome and powerful game and one of the best ever.
  
  Obviously a game like this will make you think, "why cant they all be like this?" but really they cant, buisness cant survive like that.
  
  Oddly the bioshock developers made bioshock to not only make a great game, but to cause gamers to question the industry itself, which im sure that anyone that has been with bioshock since it was announced would agree on.

  So yeah, I just wanted to try to show a reason on why all these rants are popping up, and promoting bioshock more hehe, IT'S SUCH A GREAT GAME!
