Some day, when I have long since finished the main plot for U9R; Some day after finishing the main plot of U10, should I be (enslaved) chosen to do that...;
Some day, I will play Bioshock.
Some day, when I can afford a new system outright and actually need it other than to play Bioshock. Or Mass Effect. Or. Yeah.

I've been a huge fan of System Shock since '95, but the theme, setting, and storyline for Bioshock really have me at an impasse. The backstory and the types of mutant characters all seem a little too out there/implausible for my tastes. I don't think I like the retro element either compared to the cold, streamlined SS.

Bioshock does have some backdrop elements that are Fallout-y. The architectural style's name escapes me, but the series and Bioshock do share some of those elements. In the context of when and where Bioshock occurs, I can see why it might seem implausible to you, Kultan.
I myself never picked up SS1 or 2, which is odd considering how universally loved they are. I've been meaning to look for them online. I did that for Myth 2 because of how much I loved that game.

And the weird thing is I love Fallout and the 1950's retro element to it. It just works there (fantastically).
A game I played for two minutes and hated was Command & Conquer: Red Alert. The similarity I draw to Bioshock is that it blended sci-fi and technology in a setting that takes place in the past. Whereas Fallout takes place in the distant future where anything technologically more advanced than today is easily explained.

BioShock was a great game, and a nice change from the current FPS games floating around. It wasn't as good as System Shock 2, except for the graphics of course
