PS3/X360/PC Preview - 'Bioshock'
by Rainier on Jan. 1, 2006 @ 1:30 a.m. PST | Filed under E3 - Post - E3 2006
Genre: First-Person Shooter

Developer: Irrational
Release Date: 2007

While it is largely a straight port of the limited arcade release by the same name, T:DR is certainly more portable than an arcade machine.
The most important facet of any fighting game is
