BioShock E3 Preview

DailyGame is next in line with a preview of Irrational Games’ BioShock, after seeing the sci-fi RPG firsthand during this year’s E3. A little something to start you off:

The premise of BioShock is that a small sect of humans sought to create a utopia, so to get away from any and all outside influences, they setup camp in an underwater “station” of sorts. This underwater haven is decked-out in an art deco style ripped straight from the 1950s, and the music that echoes in the background is classic era-appropriate jazz. Carpets, signage, stairs, clothing…it all reeks of a stereotypical 1950s locale. There’s just one problem: the station, for all its luxury and utopian nature, is dead. And it’s leaking. That leaves you, as the main character, a short amount of time not only to escape, but to find out what happened to the people who so desperately sought the perfect life underwater.
