So, you are in some kind of ship. Something bad happened and it is sinking (and/or sunk). You have to get out of it before it floods. It's like Bioshock if it had a leak that couldn't be repaired. I hear you will be fighting the level of water pretty much the entire game.

And it's only a downloadable game. It'll be $15 on xbla and releases tomorrow.

I'm really impressed with this.

Very interesting. I will check out the trial for sure.

So it's like Poseidon: The Game.

The Greek God of the sea? I think I missed that part of the trailer...

Definitely won't be playing it, as I have an immense fear of water in video games.

Rapture actually did have a lot of leaks that went unrepaired. How the city had lasted long enough for your Bioshock character to tour the place is mystifying, to say the least.

What I meant by that is you could never drown in Bioshock. If ever there was a place somewhere was flooded, you wouldn't be able to get there. And the few times water flooded into the area you were in, blast doors would immediately close off the area.

This game, water can't be contained and you can drown. I didn't think I'd actually have to explain this.

Nor did you. My comment was only related to the fact that Rapture's contractors should have been run through by a Big Daddy for their slipshod efforts. I didn't reference Hydrophobia, an interesting notion, but one which certainly sounds like it never could have been anything more than a downloadable title. Not a premise to support a full retail release.
