Microsoft is finally letting us test one of its big guns, BioShock, with the demo it released a few minutes ago. As a special bonus, this demo launch trailer was also released and man, are the graphics on this thing face-melting or what?


Uhh.... Yeah, we're equally fascinated with the background song. In any case, don't let the mellow music fool you because the action here is all business. Like other trailers that came before it, this new one features those big daddies whom you must beat using more than just guns and tons of ammo. Combining weapon customization and some strategy is essential in staying alive as depicted here.

Give Irrational Games a pat on the back for creating something so grotesque and disturbing yet so beautiful. BioShock will be out later this year, but for now, let's all enjoy the slice of heaven that is the playable demo via Xbox Live.

Too bad, it is CG, the game itself looks actually less good... Maybe if we could play it on PC and set all the settings on Maximum, it will look similliar to this?

"For those of you who are looking for a BioShock demo on the PC, it is in the works and will be out later this month. I'll give you more details about it tomorrow." straight from the Cult of Rapture site...

This game (demo) blew me away. Its likely to become game of the year. everything in it is superbly executed. The sound is awesome, the atmosphere is quite creepy, and the graphics are the best Ive seen (especially water). In fact, I think this game looks just slightly better than Gears, it definately set the bar higher in terms of graphics.

I'm afraid this game will come to the PS3. Now before you jump to conclusions, I am not a PS3 fanboy. I'm upset because it just gives another reason for PS3 fanboys to brag and then a war will start between the 360 and PS3 fanboys.

this game is third party and was set for the ps3 and still might come out so i dont want to hear any 360 fanboys bragging about it and if it does come out for the ps3 you fanboys just shut up and enjoy the game
