I thought Bioshock was a great game, but it is quite old and the wave has well and truly passed. If you do want the experience, save up for the second one, Bioshock: Sea of Dreams, which is coming out soon I believe.
I dident buy bioshock until recently as i was skeptical, skeptical of anything that labels itself "steampunk" and claims to be amazing.
I have to admit that i feel a bit stupid now, its easily one of the most entertaining games i have EVER played! i mean...you can shoot bees out of your hand! how awsome is that?!

As an FPS, besides being relatively easy, it's very fun. As an RPG, however, it lacks a lot of depth and characterization. I doubt the 2nd one will be much different, so just get it. There are tons of better FPSRPGS out there, but Bioshock's still pretty fun.
I actually only just finished it the other day, and I found it really entertaining and interesting too. The design and art direction is just beautiful.
If I were to make a criticism, I'd say that the game seems to drop you slightly into the deep end (zing!) with all the various plasmids, items, tonics, hacks, weapons, upgrades, chracters.... etc etc. Maybe it's because I'm used to playing shooters where everything is more clear (read: stupid), but I found the game to be slightly overcomplicated. Then again, this could just be in contrast to Left 4 Dead, which in my opinion is the abosolute pinnacle of advanced simplicity.
All in all though, if you own an Xbox, you need to own Bioshock.

I can't say anything but yeah, the game was awesome. The storytelling, atmosphere, gameplay; it was all solid. the only thing I thought could be better were the endings but they didn't stand in the way of its greatness.
