So apparently a few scattered Toys R Us stores have been selling Bioshock early. When news of this hit, Paul (Bettner) and I immediately headed out for the nearest TRU. Sadly, we were denied -- and apparently we weren't the first people to ask there, either. I think this bodes incredibly well for Bioshock. Neither of the System Shock games certainly had that kind of buzz, and I think this could be the first really big success for Irrational, well, "2K Boston" (choke).
Maybe it is because I have been re-reading all the Harry Potter books, but something about this whole affair really had a weird vibe for me. Here we were, going to some particular place at a particular time on a hint of a rumor, none of which would make the slightest amount of sense to the muggles from the normal world...
