Welcome to Rapture! The freaky underwater Art-deco "Utopia" that is now filled with a horde of mutant "splicers" flying death helicopter-bots and enough "Big Daddies" to make you quake in fear.

I have put about 16 hours into this game since I got it on Tuesday and it lived up to all the hype and expectation (on the Xbox360 at least.)

The atmosphere is great, the art-deco Ayn Rand inspired world of Rapture is done to such high quality and with attention to detail that you lose yourself in it. The constant loudspeaker announcements and the audio diaries you find throughout bring creepy audio to match the visuals. My favorite so far is an engineer telling a doctor to heat his pipes, the idiom and use of language is amazing.

The story is really enjoyable with a couple of really good twists. I won't even hint at what they are, but trust me, it is really, er, well, twisted!

So, if you haven't bought this game yet, borrow it from us.
(Sadly we haven't received it with the first load of Adult games, but hopefully soon, keep checking the catalogue!)

5 out of 5 Big Daddies.
