BIOSHOCK!!
shardian:
Halo is the ONLY FPS i have ever liked on a gamepad - and it took a long while before I was proficient at the controls. The main benefit of keyboard mouse is its like a duck to water - it just feels right.
boykster:
Gears of War (not a FPS, but a TPS) is great with a gamepad....I couldn't imagine playing it with keyboard / mouse.
And yes, I am a FPS computer gamer, not a console fanboy. It did take a while to get used to the feel, but now it's natural to me. I haven't tried the bioshock demo yet, so we'll see

AtomSmasher:
Well the demo was way too short, so I was forced to go and buy the game today ;D
I'm around 2 or 3 hours into the game now and it really is a great game, probably the best game I've played since Half-Life 2 (might even be better then HL2, but I'll need to get much further into the game before I decide on that). They do an amazing job with the atomsphere and tension building, so this really is a worthy "sequal" to System Shock 2. My only complaint is a minor one, and that is the level design feels a little too much on rails, but with so many scripted sequences to build the story and atomsphere, its understandable they had to do it that way. I guess I just got used to a wide open feel after playing games like STALKER. With so many different weapons and plasmids (special powers) even with a linear level design, the game still feels very fresh by giving you a variety of ways to handle each situation. And the killing or saving of the little sisters adds a nice ethical dilemma to the game. Oh, and did I mention the graphics are amazing, even on my two year old system.
If ever have enjoyed an FPS game before, then pick this one up because your sure to love it.

Games: BioShock Installs a Rootkit

from the drm-even-in-the-demo dept.Security
"Sony (the owner of SecureROM copy protection) is still up to its old tricks. One would think that they would have learned their lesson after the music CD DRM fiasco, which cost them millions. However, they have now started infesting PC gaming with their invasive DRM. Facts have surfaced that show that the recently released PC game BioShock installs a rootkit, which embeds itself into Explorer, as part of its SecureROM copy-protection scheme. Not only that, but just installing the demo infects your system with the rootkit. This begs the question: Since when did demos need copy protection?"
I wonder, if this is true, how to remove the 'rootkit'? hmmm, :angry:
also, this is pretty interesting
