    Bioshock "clones"

    I think that dead space is a BS clone I think its like rapture in space. Do you think any other games are BS clones.

    The real question should be what games did BioShock clone itself from.

    Well, thats an obvious clone. Since System Shock is the spiritual predecessor of Bioshock...

    Does that really count?

    Dead space ripped off Bioshock and wasn't even part of the company.

    I downloaded the Cryostasis tech demo. It looks really good! ATLAS you are right, it has that Bioshock feel, but in ice. I hope they release a demo.

    I know its an fps. I just mean the blend of an ice world and a creepy atmosphere like bioshock.

    Not exactly a clone, but I just saw something that made me laugh. What would be last game you'd expect to rip off BioShock? How about Spore?

    They posted a preview video of their Galactic Adventures expansion, and if you check out the bit at 1:30 here, you'll see "summon swarm". Look familiar? LOL

    Give that guy a Klondike Bar.

    But the "Team" that made SS is pretty much the team that made BS, so they 'Borrowed' from previous games they made instead of flat out steal. EA is scratching their heads at the corporate office wondering how 2K slipped past their radar.
