[A
quick note before the blog post: I’ve decided to change my schedule again to
make this a monthly blog. Though school is over for now, I’m still very busy,
and I show no signs of slowing down. From now on, check back the first last Saturday
of every moth for the new blog post.]
I’m
about to compare two things that should not be comparable. Assuming you read
the title, you already know I’m going to compare and contrast the first two
Bioshock games with the first two Alien films. If you read the title and assumed
I was going to be writing about which franchise is better, you’ll have to go
elsewhere on the Internet to read stupid people compare apples to oranges.
The
Bioshock and Alien franchises are very different. The only similarity they
share on the surface is that they’re both critically acclaimed and set in the
science-fiction genre. But there’s actually a lot of concepts shared between Alien
and Bioshock and between Aliens and Bioshock.
