    Default Is bioshock scary?

    I am planning to get the game for the PC and I was wondering if there is any gore or blood scenes in the game. If there is, can you turn them off via settings?

    Yeah, so is RE4. HOLY SHIT ZOMBEH WITH CHAINSAW.

    Not really, if you find Bioshock scary you are for all intents and purposes a *****.

    I found Bioshock to be a little creepy at some points, but hardly scary.


    As for blood and gore, there is plenty of it and it can't be turned off.

    you gotta be shitting me, you must have put the brightness all the way up. The game is meant to be played with the meter when you start the game to determine the brightness ALL THE WAY DOWN! For a first timer, turn the meter all the way down than tell me if your scared or not

    Not really, I've played all the Silent Hill games and a majority of horror games today and Bioshock is NOT scary. Sure, sometimes it has a sense of dread but there's nothing scary.

    You want scary?

    I just played your mom, damn did she get scary.

    Just kidding, but anyway, Bioshock is scary in a way that it scares you once in the game and that's just about it. It does do a good job at building up fear/suspense though.

    It has it's jumpy moments, but, really, it's nothing scary.
    And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear.

    You shout and no one seems to hear.

    The only scary parts are when you find hidden stuff cause this one time I went into this bathroom or w/e and it was flooded and the lights went out and electricity flew everywhere and all you hear is this door close then you pick up the item and noticed that a window like door was open then you leave the room and noticed a closed window like door thing and this guy pops out "WAS HAPPENIN" and wacks you with some big hammer thing. Yea good game.
