PC - BioShock - Xbox 360 BioShock Polished-up Irrational Games has released a little update on Xbox Live for its watery masterpiece BioShock.

It should fix lots of the stability problems some of you are having with the game, particularly when loading autosaves. The audio in the title menu has also been sorted out, and computer-controlled characters should now behave around health stations.

Sept 6, 2007 Is nothing safe anymore? Doesn't look like it. People digging around the game's innards have stumbled upon what they're claiming are details of downloadable content for the awesome BioShock. The first thing you've got to remember is that there's no option to download extra content in the Bioshock menu. The second thing you've got to remember is that it can be added via the wonder of Xbox Live. Didn't it happen with one of the Doom games back on ... » Read More

"I installed Bioshock on my laptop under one admin user, Everything works fine, but I then tried to switch users on my computer and whenever I launch Bioshock it is asking me to enter my serial again for the game¿. Is this gonna charge me two of my activations ?"

Sept 4, 2007 Nintendo's flagship shooter Metroid Prime 3: Corruption has debuted with a bang, taking the top sales spot in the all-format chart and even outselling 2K's awesome Bioshock in its first week. Metroid managed to shift over 400,000 copies in total, which must be big news for developers ogling at Nintendo's console and proves that traditional "hardcore" games can still sell on the home of Wii Sports and Cooking Mama. With Wii releases thin on the ground, Metroid's unlikely to be ... » Read More

PC - BioShock - American Sales: BioShock 400k, PS3 43k, 360 64k, Wii 101k With a 400k debut, Bioshock has a pretty legitimate shot at 1,000,000 units long term. For a sense of scale though - even in week two Madden (across all platforms) - outsold the game.

With the Americas data now in, it is time for the weekly look at Vgchartz sales data. For the week ending August 25, Xbox 360 saw the release of a key release - Bioshock. Additionally, numbers for Madden NFL 2008 in week two across all platforms were quite similar to the debut of Bioshock. That said, it is important to note that Xbox 360 hardware did not see a boost. For more on the current generation hardware sales (PS3,Wii, 360, DS, PSP) as compared to last week, check the chart.

PC - BioShock - Levine: BioShock Originally About Cult Deprogrammer Erasing Lesbian Tendencies Recently, posts spread around the internet detailing BioShock's former setting of an isolated tropical island inhabited by genetically experimental Nazis, demonstrating just how much a game can change from initial conception to final product. That's nothing on what the game was about before then, however: a cult deprogrammer hired by the parents of a woman involved in a lesbian relationship to kidnap the daughter and rewrite her brain to steer clear of what her parents perceive as deviant activity.

PC - BioShock - Bioshock: Find your way in Rapture So you want to find your way perfectly in Rapture? Then you don't need to search any further. The Superguide for Bioshock has bubbled up from the bottom of the sea...

What's a SuperGuide? Think of it like this: a massive strategy guide or walkthrough that everyone can contribute to. It's better than a standard strategy guide or walkthrough, since it contains much more features -- they often have videos and pictures showing the exact way to beat the game.

PC - BioShock - Epic Praises Unreal-powered BioShock's Success Bioshock, developed by 2K Boston and 2K Australia (formerly known as Irrational), is currently the number one selling game in the UK marketplace, accounting for 58 per cent of all full-price game sales and becoming the second-fastest selling Xbox 360 title of all time ¿ right behind Epic's own Gears of War.

"The folks at 2K Boston and 2K Australia have done a really fantastic job with this game," said Rein. "We like to think we set a high bar with our own games, but more importantly we give our licensees the opportunity to take what we've done and do something even better with it."

"Am I interested in continuing to work in the world?" is a question Next Gen poses, to which Levine answers "Yes, I am." The second question, if there is a popular demand for such work, is also answered in the positive by Levine. Though in truth he need not answer at all with the game's high scores and ... » Read More

PC - BioShock - Malware Alert: BioShock Installs a Rootkit on PC An anonymous reader writes at Slashdot:

"Sony (the owner of SecureROM copy protection) is still up to its old tricks. One would think that they would have learned their lesson after the music CD DRM fiasco, which cost them millions. However, they have now started infesting PC gaming with their invasive DRM. Facts have surfaced that show that the recently released PC game BioShock installs a rootkit, which embeds itself into Explorer, as part of its SecureROM copy-protection scheme. Not only that, but just installing the demo infects your system with the rootkit. This begs the question: Since when did demos need copy protection?"

If you have installed BioShock on your PC, then you will want to follow the alternate link to use Microsoft's Rootkit Revealer to check your PC for malware infection.
