B2 cos Stalker 1 was sh*t and avp was too scary in the dark with headphones on.

I Love the STALKER games.  The 2st STALKER game was actually good if you like Survival Horror, Clear Sky was brilliant.  Bioshock was a crushing disappointment IMO.  Very pretty, and a nice story, but otherwise it was a fairly workmanlike FPS game with little to recommend it past that point.  AvP3 DESERVES to be good, if only because the previous 2 games are, but if its based on the movie itll likely suck.  Colonial Marines is interesting me the most at the moment, but Ive already got Call of Pripyat on order, and _should_ be getting a few of the freebies from one of the local game shops :)

A pre order on steam at £26.99 will net you Bioshock 2 with a free copy of Bioshock 1 for you to keep or gift to a mate :P

The new AVP game looks Gory as hell. I think Bioshock 2 will be just same old same old. I think there are a lot of better games other then these you could go buy but between these two - AVP.

Youre paying for the story as much as anything else.  I love these type of RPG/FPS Survival Horror games, depends what you want to do with it really.  If you just want to go mental then buy bioshock, but stalker will have more replayability.

Never thought much of the stalker stories. Sure there was atmosphere by the bucket load, but as far as stories went there wasnt any beyond the setting and your goal. IE "Youre in a nuclear wasteland, and you looking for someone/something"

The entire AVP franchise is just lame.

Tough decision as both look great. Maybe if AVP and Bioshock 2 have demos released, Ill try them both and decide that way even though it doesnt represent the final product.

has bioshock 2 gone gold yet ? , if it is released on the 9th then it seems odd to me why no "gone gold status " news has been released
