Bioshock Gets Dangerous

I'm the exact opposite of what Irrational Games' Ken Levine's proposed, biologically modded, heartwarming do vs. don't kill ethic incorporated-into-a-deep-sea-diving-first-person-adventure game Bioshock is marketing. At least, from a moral standpoint. When I eventually pick up Bioshock in August, September, or whenever I obtain a 360 (it releases for 360 and PC Aug. 21), the first thing I want to do is telekinetically pick up a kicking, screaming Little Sister, light her on fire, throw her flailing body onto a Big Daddy , and happily look down upon the beast as he cries to the gods in disbelief for all he has been designed to do is protect the Little Whore. It'll be the same cry of disbelief Levine will give after witnessing my moral compass spin wildly out of control at the next Bioshock/Microsoft press junket or some shit like that. Luckily for Ken Levine, you can't kill Little Sisters on camera.

Fuck.

Not satisfied? Watch this new Bioshock developer interview; it'll give more of the goods on those telekinetically induced fireballs mentioned previously. I suppose that was the whole point of this post anyway.

Video Roundup: June 18, 2007

Wow. Taking a little time off was a baaaad idea. Just look at all the videos I've managed to find (11!) and I'm ashamed to admit I gave up around halfway. Hopefully you'll learn to forgive me.

With the Japanese release of Phantom Hourglass creeping up on the east side, commercials and trailers are present about. The latest trailer probably shows us the most we've seen from the DS title. Cuccoos, firetraps, and...eskimos? All wrapped in a nice, bite-sized package(s). It's also worth noting that the hourglass is officially a new item, if you hadn't already predicted.

More great videos after the jump!

Video Roundup: June 9, 2007

Phooey. No one liked our awesome Video Roundup banner? You guys should be ashamed of yourselves; pick up an Idiot's Guide to Art or something. Banner replacement is just one of many changes made to our daily video section and it only took a week to develop! The second thing you'll notice is that I'm a liar. Remember this quote? "Plan to see YouTube videos only." Lies. Because starting today, our sights are expanding, gathering videos from all across the web. Unfortunately, some sites (*cough*GameVideos*cough*) don't have (working) embeddable flicks, so you'll have to work hard in clicking those directing links to watch some cool moving pictures.

Video of the Day:

Up until today, I was completely unaware Nintendo was holding some sort of Uwe Boll-esque contest. Indie filmmakers create 5 minutes of game-related/entertaining footage in the hopes of being noticed for their directorial skills in New York City. Based on the quality of this film, these guys could even make Super Mario Bros. not suck ass.
