PHILOSOPHICAL ACTION MANDATORY PURCHASE WITH MANY FAN GOODIES (XBOX360-VERSION)

Storyline and the end of a lasting impression. Playability as usual very good. Control and operation of the controller, as well as the menus are simple and intuitive, and thus also held for beginner-friendly video game newcomers. The acquired over time abilities are sensible and to be used to be fun (burn, wind, etc). Also in the course of the Games ever increasing weapon selection, leaves nothing to be desired. Setting and graphics make you forget the environment. But on closer look fall a part, a little rough textures on (this is, however, an action for a very high level). The architectural, as well as the fashionable style is based on the Victorian era, and are clearly as the predecessor to the "Steampunk" a statement.

The atmosphere is captured here, though is not as oppressive as in part 1 + 2, since the world with buildings and all the trimmings hovering in the sky, and not as in the previous city of Rapture underwater. Also new is the slides are with which you can shimmy and slide from place to place. Overall, therefore, a more open and freer scenario.

Big Daddy and Little Sister (familiar characters from part 1 + 2) make a no longer life hell or remotely afford counsel. To influence the abilities equipment and living things telekinetically remained intact. Audio counts, which are found in many places, get to know one more of the still partially very complex story. The male protagonist, which is initially in search of a girl who is being held captive by the villain of this story, impressed with wit and character.

The same girls will join you, and occasionally help as a partner. They are completely self-sufficient. Not you gotta before she died to save or protect them against enemies, but it is you occasionally with Heiltänken and ammunition a helping hand to your threaten ends Exitus prevent and never the wrong time.

The graph with their enormous foresight and a great love for creative detail, as well as the entire soundscape know to convince sustainable. The background music underlines the Game staging and lets the whole thing become an extraordinary experience. Sometimes, especially at the beginning you stroll just as the central city of Columbia around and admired the highly creative Steampunk design ideas of the developers (eg horse with wheels, fairground)), and can be impressed by light reflections and water reflections. One can get enough of all the graphic details at the beginning of the Games hardly.

But the dialogues, or watch the accompanying charming protagonist if you let pass even idle time, great sport and makes the efforts of game developers recognize a complex character drawing. Such games have become rare (especially in the shooter genre).

Who has not played the previous two, should think zuzulegen this because they in the "Rapture Edition" are available together conveniently. Although Part 3 does not directly part 2 to (as it was at 1 and 2), but it makes sense to play these two before, as there are and explains many allusions and correlations to its predecessors.

Never before has a game end so fascinated me. This Game resonates and makes you think and philosophize. Overall, a great round thing.

The goodies contained in this special edition, such as the Keychain, minifigure and plaques seem to very cheap. Quite in contrast to the art book, which has really taken a very qualitative Habtik and dementsprechendem content the subject artbook, and not only as in some games usual, a "booklet" with Screenshoots or different cover art is, but real "artwork" includes. The cards, as well as the "Poster" can convince, but are probably just something for the younger generation

The Songbird Statue contrast, offers a very detailed and qualitative processing, and is an eye-catcher in any room. Whether you need the virtual goodies is another question, since I'm personally not a fan of such nonphysical offerings.

Who does not, however, want to invest so much money, can fall back on the Premium Edition, in which although the Songbird Statue missing but artbook and other physical goodies are included as well, and at a much lower price. However, everyone must decide for themselves.

Absolute triple A title that is worth every penny. However, each Hardcore Bioshock fan should be regarded as mandatory purchase this edition! European PEGI and USK German version are content, as well as graphically identical. So there are no cuts in any form.

At 2K Games just one request. Keep it up, and not tempted by unnecessary new innovations these games series wreck, as was the case with Resident Evil, Final Fantasy, Medal of Honor, etc !!!

PS

Looking forward to your feedback, and everyone who has taken the time to read this rather detailed review. So if I could achieve no gain in knowledge with you, I hope you still have at least entertained.

Otherwise GOOD GAMING !!!
