Got bored, made this

 

[Phthisis]

Yeah, mine was about that speed last night. Went from 11% when I got home at 5:30 to 30% when I went to bed at 9:30.

It would only be purgatory if you got to the end and found out you accidentally downloaded Project Sylpheed.

Hey >:|

Sylpheed was the 360's best

and shortest

game through July.

EDIT: Will not make.

Oh snap, already posted? (Bioshock Artbook)

Anyway, here it is again for anyone that's missed it.

holy shit, 67 pages! thanks for the heads up, I completely missed this.

edit: I said holy shit to it being 67 pages because I assumed it would just be a miniature artbook, with it being free and all.

To be honest, I just picked a recent demo at random since downloading any demo except Bioshock when you meant to download Bioshock would be truly mortifying. Especially at the speeds people are getting.

I considered Stranglehold but Project Sylpheed sounded better in the sentence.

 

[Tieno]

This act of kindness by giving the artbook away for free convinces me even more to get the CE. Lots of love coming from Irrational! Respect!

 

[mikeGFG]

I was honestly thinking of skipping Bioshock before the demo came out.

Shame on me.

Finally got mine reserved today, though I would have done it demo or no demo.

 

[blaze03]

This is slightly off topic, but how are you planning on getting Bioshock for sure on day 1? I've never really wanted a game this badly on release date so I've never dealt with GameStop preorders and all that (personally I'd rather do business with Best Buy or something anyday than GS). Are you guaranteed a copy with GS preorders?

What's the best way/place to make sure I get a copy on day 1?

 

[Spruchy]

Does anyone know why gamestop removed the PC Collector's edition from the website?

It was up last night -_-

 

[Tieno]

How spoilerific are the Bioshock community podcasts? I don't want to know too much either.

I'm getting Bioshock via EB Games, I put down and paid off my pre-order on the Collector's Edition about three or so weeks ago. I personally have never had a problem with Eb Games/Gamestop when it comes to reserving software, but I know people have had a lot of trouble when it comes to reserving hardware and getting it on day one.

They're pretty careful about what's been revealed and what hasn't. They're very light on plot but they do talk about a lot of the plasmids that some people might want to discover on their own.

sounds too spoilerish for me. I'll definitely have to listen to community podcasts after Bioshock releases and I get a ways through it.

 

[TemplaerDude]

this really needs to be stickied.

 

[Sullichin]

So, will stores have this on the 21st?

 

[Eric WK]

So, will stores have this on the 21st?

According to Gamestop's weekly ad, yes.

Which better be true because now I have my hopes up to bring it home Tuesday morning.

 

[Emerson]

Has anyone considered using an online service like lulu.com to have this artbook made into a hardback? I've never used lulu but it'd be nice to just be able to set it up online and order it.

 

[TemplaerDude]

man i can't wait for this game!

 

[Emerson]

Hey guys, I set it up on Lulu.com to order if anyone wants it. I set the commission to 0 so I don't make any money off it, it's just what Lulu charges standard. It's hardback and all that, you can preview it if you want.

I honestly couldn't tell you as I've never used the service before. I'd imagine it's fairly good though.

Indeed

Good. Now put a lock on all the crap threads.

I don't think I know what you mean. Anything with the word Bioshock on it = gold.

 

[Victrix]

Concur, anything without Bioshock in the title should be locked

 

[UncleGuito]

:lol

So true. Especially considering most of the other stuff on the first page right now.

new video on gametrailers

http://www.gametrailers.com/game/2610.html

it's the "exclusive weapons of genetic destruction" video.

 

[rs7k]

Don't know if it's been posted, but here's the Bioshock commercial for N. America

Great video. And confirms that when they say 70 different plasmids, they actually mean 70 different plasmids.

Amazing. Tuesday can't come soon enough. 70 different plasmids? Thats insane.

 

[Big Takeover]

That's a shocking number too. That's a hell of a lot of plasmids.

seventy.

that's an amazing number. 70 different ways to enhance your character and his loadout, not to mention numerous more ways to mod each weapon.

the customization in this game is sick. each time you play you can go a different path, the scavenger, the run and plasmid, it's so awesome.

 

[UncleGuito]

Holy shit! Those bee launching and cyclone plasmids look amazing! Someone needs to make an animated gif of the cyclone ability launching that guy sky high- that was freaking sweet.

All of them?

By the way, someone should update the OP with some demo screens & stuff about the art book/collector's edition.

 

[maynerd]

No.

Missed it on the front page.

HDTV 720p

 

[UncleGuito]

No.

I'm pretty sure it's 1080i, too (judging from some of the 1080 screencaps I've seen).

You can tell the difference between 720p and 1080i looking at screenshots on your computer? Wow you are impressive. I'm not saying it doesn't look awesome. I'm just saying you'd have a hard time telling by looking at some screenshots.

 

[UncleGuito]

No, but those screens do look better than on my 720p display. I haven't had any experience with 1080i/p though, so I don't know what I'm talking about when it comes to that.

Perhaps it looks better because the person has a better tv than yours?
