Rapture for cheap: PS3 Bioshock selling at US$ 27.99 at Costco |
Ó
If you're a PlayStation 3 owner and you haven't gotten BioShock yet, now might just be the right time. Costco is selling PS3 copies of BioShock at US$ 27.99 a pop (plus a US$ 3 shipping and handling fee). I realize this is a bit of kick to the shins of people who got the game when it was released in October for US$ 59.99 but oh well...
If you haven't heard of Bioshock yet, then you've probably been living in a cave somewhere. In the off chance that you *have* been living in a cave (Osama is that you?), here's the basic need to know:
This shooter is set in an steampunk-ish underwater dystopian city called Rapture, sometime in the 1960s. You can genetically modify your character to sport certain abilities (like shooting lighting/fire/etc) and you use these abilities to survive various crazy mutant people and angry steam-driven robots. There are multiple endings based on how nice or mean you were during the game.
The story is *compelling* and the gameplay is near-flawless. This is not something you want to miss if you're even vaguely interested in the genre.
The PS3 version makes up for its late release by featuring a lot of downloadable content and a harder game difficulty setting.

like I said, at least I gess so!
We're sorry, this product is not available. Product number: 11313285
i just checked the costco website and found out that COD: Wolrd at War is cheaper (53.99) than COD4 by one dollar... wth?
Must have been a mistake, it's not available on their site anymore :-p
Might have been a mistake but I may think it may have been true to some extent. Reason being is that the game has sold terribly on the PS3, what did you expect for a year old port. Go to vgchartz and you can see for yourself how well it has done. I wish that it would have done better but 2k should have released it sooner rather than as late as they did.
