The graphics are stunning (especially the water effects that will surprise you anywhere). The atmosphere of the game is enormous. You feel totally into it put into this underwater world.
Control of the game is intuitive and very well thought out. Even as PC shooter player who is accustomed to playing games of this type with a mouse and keyboard, I had no Promleme with the joypad.
The RPG elements where you can "tune" its own character with different plasmids and tonics, depending on the application needs, is simply super.
The game runs super smooth high framerate and also the saving and loading times were within the limits.
I am now looking for about 7 hours at 3/4 of the 3rd level and I can absolutely imagine that someone has the game played out in just 8 hours is not.
Partly it is has to be found in the Big Daddies trial and error the right tactics. But that also has a certain charm, because you can not simply run "blind" in this game, but should think twice about how to use the available resources.
For me the best game so far in my 15 years of experience with computer and video games.
A "Best Buy" and highly recommended. Who does not buy this game, missed something big.
