Game Audio.


Playing through Bioshock, I’m amazed at the amount of detail being etched into these imaginary worlds. As good as the graphics are and the big daddy’s scare, where Bioshock really succeeds is in the audio department. When you hear a lady screaming down the hall, or a moan from around the corner it really sends chills up your spine. That and the jazz that comes on randomly throughout just amps the tension to 11. Im only about six hours in, and from what I’ve heard Im close to one of the major twists in the game. So far I’m not just looking at the game of the year, but also the Oscars for sound design and cinematography. It’s too bad Hollywood would only butcher this adaptation.
