the delivery of the audio logs [in Bioshock] was lackluster.

Oh I’m sorry, were they not filled with enough Shakspearian drama tipped from the very nose of Oliver Cromwell for your likings?

I’m no Bioshock fanboy but without a doubt the highlight of the game was the audio logs. They were immense atmosphere builders and are a fantastic way to tell a story. System Shock 2 proved that a decade earlier and Bioshock just reminded us.

But too say they were lackluster. Fuck sake man, what the fuck are you looking for. They were well acted, creepy, atmospheric little titbits that were to be searched out like drugs becuase each one was a new hit of storytelling prowess.

I suggest you ditch gaming and go back to reading poetry and looking up dictionarys for ways to improve your daily vocabulary because frankly mate, thats a shallow and retarded opinion you’ve got yourself there.

Honestly, what did you want the logs to do? Bend over and suck your boabby. Jesus, some people,
