I will be the first to admit i rarely play a game on the hardest mode available. The reasons for that are:

1. I want a challenge without it being too overbearing so that i can't enjoy it.

2. I am 36 and not a pro gamer and don't intend on being one.

3. Rarely do I ever play Multiplayer so i dont really need to hone my skills.

I am saying this because BIOSHOCK is becoming increasingly difficult. First you fought a Big Daddy by himself ( as if that wasn't enough) now I have to fight him as well as numerous splicers at the same time (could this be punishment for playing so well?) ......I wish. I am playing BIOSHOCK on medium difficulty which is where i play most of my games. This mode seems to provide enough of a chllenge for me without wanting to toss the 360 against a friggin wall due to frustration (Ninja Gaiden anyone?).

My point is if I am on medium difficulty why am i moaning so much about how hard it has recently become (this after 10 hrs. of gameplay). I feel Suckered!!!! Kinda like playing pool and winning a few until the guy comes back and takes you for everything you own including your girlfriend.

Yea...that's how i feel. Stupid game intelligence.Lay off already!!!!

Favorite Part so far: The swarm plasmid. Awesome freakin awesome. Yea i know this has kinda been done before but it is so much fun watching the AI react in this game to a swarm of hornets.

Least Favorite; I think I am doing something wrong but there are machines that u can use to turn off bot activity should it get to hot and heavy. Havent used one yet!!!! Can't figure this one out....got to be something really stupid that i am not doing, but i wont get a walkthrough for this one............guaranteed.

Last night i was surfing around and went to gamesradar and noticed they have an article posted that tells you everything about BIOSHOCK. This was like putting a plate of fried chicken and a gallon of ice cream in front of me and telling me don't touch it. I swear this was that kind of moment for me I really love those foods. I desperately want to know if i missed anything and if i should go back but i am afraid of spoiling what lies ahead. I really need to make some friends this is getting ridiculous!!!!

I touched in the topic of game trading not long ago and will only touch on it for a minute again only to say that i am no longer going to trade my games at retail locations and have signed up at goozex and sayswap to see if this provides any more value for me. Keep u posted on this as the results unfold.

SEE YA!!!!!!!!

When I first played God of War, the first boss you had to defeat by button mashing. I just couldn't do it fast enough: I had to get my husband to beat the first boss. In this game if you dies about 3 times in an area, the game would ask you if youwanted to play on an easier difficulty. This would change how much damage the baddies could take and could deal. Fair enough. About half way through the game is a place for platforming: you have to make Kratos walk through tight-rope like maze with whirling blades: you fall, you die. Effing programmers: you die 3 times in this area, it asks you if you want the easier difficulty. GRRR: easier badies wont' help my lack of platforming skill!! Not the same thing: but I hear ya!
