Well bioshock is a lot more timeless than other titles from that time. I for instance played it on a 8800 gtx back in the day and that card was simply double as powerfull as what you got in x360 and ps3, and the game did make use of that extra power for graphical fidelity, resolution aside.
That's one thing, the game is also known for its amazing art direction even more so than dead space.
So while this is only a remaster, you won't be dissappointed. Heck you can even still play the original and it will hold up better than the original dead space, because of the amazing art direction. In that sense the game is way better than dead space or resident evil 2 remake for that matter.
By many it's considered as the best game of all time. I would still have to give that to resident evil 4 personally, but this game does hold up way better than re 4 though but that's also because it's part of the x360/ps3 generation, resident evil 4 is made for the wii, which is basically a glorified gamecube (xbox original/ps2 generation)

Why do you want a souls-like? So you can have a massive soy-boy ego boost when you spend 100+ hours to beat it and then claim you're better than the average person because you did? How about you:
A.) Work for a living like everyone else so you can actually afford to play video games.
B.) Play a game that actually takes skill so you actually have a reason to have an ego when you "git gud". Examples being NBA 2k and R6.

yes but you can pretty much define a lot of games as first person or third person shooters.
It is the spiritual successor to system shock 2, and that is classed as an action role playing survival horror game, and in many ways that is what bioshock is as well.
But it does has a lot more action though, and further in the game, when your character gets stronger, that action becomes a much bigger part, so that's why the devs kept things simple and they just called it a first person shooter, but so is call of duty, and those games aren't even comparable.
Bioshock might not be a pure horror game there a lot of references to it, even by the devs itself, from wiki.
The game's lead level designer was Bill Gardner. He cited Capcom's survival horror series Resident Evil as a significant influence on BioShock, stating there are "all these nods and all these little elements that I think you can see where Resident Evil inspired us". The team were particularly influenced by Resident Evil 4, including its approach to the environments, combat, and tools, its game design and tactical elements, its "gameplay fuelled storytelling" and inventory system, and its opening village level in terms of how it "handled the sandbox nature of the combat" and in terms of "the environment".

Reply to I’m considering trying out “The Old Republic” but don’t really have any experience with games like this. Any advice before starting? Should I even try it? by Trevor-On-Reddit
If you've never played a Bioware rpg then you should know that you need to pick good or evil before you start and then stick to it. You get maximum benefits from your decision either way but you make your life harder by alternating between your choices.

Bioshock is a mediocre series, it's a dumb and casualized adaptation of the Looking Glass games. Arkane games are the real deal though for a modern take on this kind of game design.

You could just start with Dark Souls 1 or 3 and go from there. Although there are other souls-likes that aren't made by From Soft, like Nioh 1 & 2, Steel Rising, Code Vein, Mortal Shell and The Surge 1 & 2.
There's also Jedi: Fallen Order, which is kind of an easier take on Souls games. I think it's on sale on Steam.

Reply to comment by Jedi4Hire in gamers need to understand that a criticism of a product is not a personal criticism of you as an individual by speckledpotatocunts
This was my exact thought. Go to a band subreddit and shit on one of their albums. Shit on somebody's favourite movie. Talk shit about how Breaking Bad or The Wire wasn't actually that good..
People hate criticism of the things they love, no matter how valid the criticisms may be.

Paper Mario thousand year door. The nostalgia does it for me, and even the combat system is so relaxed.

I remember playing Halo 3 online and noticing that dudes would rush to kill gamers who were female. So I changed my characters gender to female. It worked like a charm. I would EASILY get the most kills every round because they'd literally just rush towards me... lol. Ever since then, I play all games that I can, exclusively as a female character. Also too, female characters normally have more customizing options than male characters. *In Halo 3, if you selected female. Your death voice sound sounded feminine so that's how players knew*

It’s was… a start. The idea was great, a grown up Mario Kart, but the tracks, choice of cars, and the visuals in general were either ugly or just meh. It was a shame there was no follow up because I’d love to have seen them take the concept and run with it, upping the creativity and ditching so much of the brown and grey visuals.

Thank you imc-grunt64. I didn't know there would-be add ons, if they bought stuff without my knowledge I'd be really cross. Is there a way to disable purchases without a code or something please.
The free ones on their tablets aren't linked to a credit card or account so they can't buy add ons etc

Then you need to get your head checked, because bioshock isn't a horror game. It's never been categorized as a horror game by anyone, even by the developers. It's a first person shooter. Having some horror elements doesn't make it a horror game, it just means it has some elements of horror to make the player feel uneasy.

Interesting. BioShock definitely has it's creepy moments but compared to RE7 it's bloody sunshine and rainbows to me 😂
