Yeah Bioshock was a class game. Amazing setting both visually and can you say, temporally? Meaning the story is just totally cool and I think they got a lot of their ideas from that evil Ayn Rand's Objectivist philosophy. Yeah, I had to look it up as I'd forgotten what all that stuff was called. Makes for very interesting reading though (if you've got the time of course).

There's a good article on the BBC about her actually. That's when I first realised the connection Bioshock's Rapture and the Atlas character had with her. Spooky stuff!

Just my luck I guess.

The sad irony is in fact that her vision of individual objectivity, is of course entirely subjective. In Rand's case influenced by her own childhood experiences.

Great post SPOOK. I had also previously (if only briefly) come across her theoretical rantings, but even after playing the game, didn't put two and two together.

I am now of course, even happier to watch Rapture dissolve.

I was a rescuer

Another tragic irony was that she apparently died penniless and in receipt of government welfare support. I guess her (strong and rich) friends were only following their shared philosophy in condemning the poor and weak to their natural abject demise. Just as well there was a safety net, eh?

Yeah, burn Rapture. Burn! Or drown. Even. Burn then drown perhaps? That's better.

Same, on hard mode.

Just starting Borderlands 2. Peeved that Mechromancer costs as much as a story dlc, where is the logic in that?

Gzero................Jez i thought that name ringed a bell.........Welcome back matey


Where you been the past 12 months

Saying that i have had the RROD on two systems .........shoddy build quality and a Microsoft Cock up in the R and D department.

Working, but still reading the threads.

I've actually hit a slump in multiplayer games to play with my friends. 1 of them always has to moan the second it doesn't go right and everything gets a little awkward.

Hoorah for single players!
