Great price. Extremely tempting, but I still won't give them money until they learn not to use Orwellian copy protection.

Just get it you silly goose. They upped the number of installations per game to like 15 I think. After you activate it 15 times you will need to call their 800 number to activate..
Honestly though, why would any gamer need more than 15 activations unless he was pirating the game?:-s

The amount of activations doesn't mean anything once the day comes when I can't connect to the server. Oh, I suppose if the server ever gets taken down they'll issue a patch; so now I'm supposed to carry around this patch for decades or else hope that it never becomes hard to find online?

Just burn the patch onto a CD and keep it along with the game. It's not that hard.

Yes, because an oppressive, Big Brother-esque society is just like a game company giving you a limited number of installs...

Er...what are you talking about? One, Best Buy doesn't sell used games. Two, no one sells used PC games.

Apparently Best Buy B&M will have Bioshock on sale for $20.00 starting Sunday.
But, big surprise! Yesterday I went to a Circuit City in Belair Maryland and they had 3 copies of Bioshock all marked down to $9.99!
At the register it rang up at $29.99 but the cashier overrode and I walked out of the store a very happy gamer.
I would be interested to know if anyone else finds this deal at other Circuit Cities.

I still mourn the lost of EB Games because of their used PC game section. I found so much great cheap stuff there.
Anyway I haven't actually played this so i'll pick it up. I'm a System Shock fan and hearing how much they took out made me hold off.
