Just ... wow

Completed 'Bioshock' last night. What a great game. Loved the story, got the good ending [and can intuit the not-so-good ending thereby] and managed to get 46 of the 50 achievements.

[I didn't do 'get a jackpot' at Fort Frolic. I know I didn't get every gene tonic - and I missed getting 1 plasmid. I also didn't 100% research the security system. I'm pretty sure those were the 4 I missed.]

But just ... wow. Gorgeous, beautiful game. The controls felt natural to use, the camera was my friend, I could move/hit/damage just about -anything- I tried to affect. The weapons and powers were fun and it was very challenging to my not-even-a-vague-fan of FPS games self.

But it was such a wonderful experience I may try playing it again on the 'average' setting [and get myself soundly thumped] after I finish 'Digital Devil Saga'.

Actually the "Seriously Good At This" achievement is awarded for completing the game at its highest degree of difficulty. Plasmids seem to be irrelevant -- unless they also count as 'tonics'.
