Bioshock preview - Xbox 360

It's nearly here: eagerly awaited underwater first-person shooter Bioshock will be on the shelves this summer. With less than a month to go until release (it's due out in August), we've had a chance for a hands-on preview of Bioshock, and we can tell you all about it. Bioshock, a shooter with more than a touch of horror, finds you in the ruins of an underwater city, where you must fight your way past its monstrous inhabitants with the help of your various powers, and of course your arsenal of weaponry. Can't wait? Find out more in our Bioshock preview for Xbox 360 now!

But, when we stepped away after our few hours play, the main feeling is anticipation. In that, soon – but not soon enough – we’re going to get to play the rest.
Bioshock has been described as the “Spiritual Sequel” to Irrational’s ancient PC-classic System Shock 2, but it’s actually a lot more similar in tone to its even more ancient prequel. While its sequel was a role-playing game hybridised with a first-person shooter, complete with all manner of statistics, the first System Shock was more of a pure shooter... just a shooter which realised there was no need to need to be “pure”. You could be an adventure. You can be an exploratory game. You can be anything.
