The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

Just Another Day in Rapture

Submitted by Midnight on Wed, 05/30/2007 - 7:12pm.

Smacking up on plasmids and beating a guy with a wrench, wailing on a bronze-clad diver while a little girl cheers for your demise, popping someone's head off with a pistol, setting someone on fire, popping someone's head off with a pistol after setting them on fire...it's just another day in the underwater paradise of BioShock called "Rapture." This video showcases actual gameplay with some of the best water effects and creepiest scenarios I've encountered in a video game. GG 2k Games.

So, this is what goes on daily inside the anatomy of Thex member Rapture, eh?

I've been sort of watching this game for awhile now. Thanks for this video. Watching it, it seems the gameplay is very similar to Half-Life; but instead of a gravity gun, you use telekinesis.

Hopefully they'll actually make the gameplay interesting instead of constant monster rooms ala Fear and Doom.

This and HL2: Episode 2 are two of the games I'm looking forward to on the PC this fall.

Is this a GFWL title? DX 9 or 10?

It's like HL meets Res. Evil.

Almost every PC game is a GFW game. Not every game is Live enabled. Those that are Live enabled are GFW - Live titles. Right now, only H2PC and Shadowrun are GFW - Live titles.

It is unknown if any other titles will join them.

Is what a GFWL title? I'm confused.

You never use the reply button. So it's hard to tell. :)

Jeez, those Big Daddies are fast! I'm very excited about this game. I can't wait for it to come out.

I was surprised by the speed of the Big Daddies as well.

That is definitely one fast paced and scary game. The small areas of light and then large gaps of darkness certainly create a tense gaming environment. Looking forward to it for sure.

I'm having a case of déjà vu. That sounds like F.E.A.R.

FYI: Bioshock is on the cover of EGM this month. I just got it in the mail today. You should probably be able to find scans sometime soon.
