If you thought there was a lot to Bioshock's combat system, then be prepared for a very rude (and yet very cool) awakening as the minds behind 2K Games' latest horror shooter gives us a taste of just how many ways you can lay waste to the gibbering denizens of Rapture. So far, the possibilities of doing so are nearing the infinite mark. We get you all the awesome details in this video update of Bioshock for the Xbox 360 and PC.

In this action-packed video interview, we learn about how the combat system is divided into three layers: the weapons, the plasmid abilities and, of course, the environment. Mixing these three massive layers up in a way that you either use them as a combo or a natural advantage gives you a massive edge over the worst that Rapture can offer, including those Big Daddies.

One very good example is setting someone on fire after you've set a ton of proximity mines around a puddle of water. The end result? Someone running to their own explosive death. Yay! Tons more combos and revelations in this developer interview. Enjoy!

Amazing game, sad to see PS3 owners have to wait at least another year for anything as good as this.

I played thru the demo for my girlfriend last night, and she was clutching my arm and yelling at me to look out. We had a blast.

At the end of the demo, when I get locked in the room, she was freaking out and yelling at me to "get out of there! What are you doing just standing around?" I was cracking up at how much she got into the action.
