Bioshock Is One Video Game That Is Sure To Impress In 2007

... to it that brings to mind the mines of Moria scene from the Lord Of The Rings where the Fellowship battled the Balrog in the abandoned dwarve empire under the Misty Mountains.

Bioshock is set primarily in a broken-down underwater complex that seems to be a relic from the World War II era. Players move through the game with a first person perspective as they battle mutant creatures that roam the halls and streets of this decaying city.

Nothing is quite clear to the user at first, such as what the complex was originally used for, and why it is being used again, but things become more apparent as they progress through the game. What is eventually apparent is that a utopian city was built and genetic experiments were performed in the 1940s, and then the complex fell into disrepair for reasons unknown. Sixty something years later the complex is revisited and we find out that it has been overrun by mutant genetic experiment creatures that have a taste for human flesh.

Ken Levine, the general manager of Irrational Games describes Bioshock as a convergence of technology and biological life in which genetic experiments are featured. It is by no means a sequel to System Shock 2, whose setting was a corporate-sponsored starship.

Bioshock has no story connection to System Shock 2 other than the fact that they are both horror-themed....more

Cars PC game

... Pixar game is not the same from one version to another.

Xbox 360, Playstation 3 And Nintendo Wii Battle For Hearts, Minds And Sales

...of the reasons that Nintendo Wii is selling a lot more video game consoles than Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 is because it is very popular in countries other than the United States such as Japan. Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 sales are not very good in Japan. Nintendo Wii is much cheaper, and the price difference can be a very important factor for the average hard working citizen.

As the 2007 holiday season approaches there is a battle brewing over who will rule the video game industry. While Nintendo Wii has been victorious since its release almost a year ago selling more than the other two competitors combined every month, it is about to encounter a revitalized competition.

Microsoft and Sony have regrouped and they are both back in the fight with new versions of Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. With no new product to offer, it will be interesting to see if Nintendo Wii will be able to stay on top of sales for video game consoles this holiday season. Microsoft and Sony are going into the season with newer, cheaper and revitalized versions of their video game consoles. Most importantly, they are both companies that have been known to achieve and even surpass the business goals that they set out to accomplish, and they should never be underestimated.<...more

Nintendo Wii - Its Successes and Its Failures

...control system, and that there aren't as many quality games as there are on the Xbox 360 and PS3. This is a fair criticism. A quick skim through the games available for the Wii will leave many feeling quite underwhelmed. While there are a few top quality games on the system, many are sick of poor quality party games that get thrown together in a month.

The other problem Nintendo are currently having is that there simply aren't enough consoles available to meet demand. This just goes to show that the success of the console has even caught the company off guard. There are reports that the lack of consoles has cost Nin...more
