    Any foreign Bioshock fans already here ?

    Greetz to all Bioshock fans around the globe
    I´m zyklop from Germany, since last year we´re running a Bioshock fansite in German and English.
    Visit us at www.bio-shock.com or www.bio-shock.de and choose your prefered language on the upper right side.
    The site is realized with the e107 CMS, we´re also using Joomla for our other sites in the globalgameport-network.

    Are there any other foreign Bioshock-teams ?
    Contact us and we will be happy to talk about a partnership.

    Hmm, Germany seems to be quite strong in the foreigner-group.

    And I am a part of it . Bin aus Essen im schönen NRW.

    Not sure whether should I look at this thread as "Are there any other foreign Bioshock-teams?" or "Where are you from?" Going for the later, I'm from Poland. Greetings.

    I'm from India, spreading the BioShock goodness wherever I can, even going to great lengths to actually write a big preview of the game for a local gaming publication here. Just can't wait to get my hands on the game.

    Does English count as being foreign in this crazy American world?

    Sure, just come over and pick it up


    Wow, lot's of people from Europe here. I'm glad the release is going to be more-or-less simultaneous with the US.

    I don't understand the use of foreign here either. It's a relative term, could mean culturally different from the west, or as I assume just not from NorthAm.

    Perhaps foreign just means someone who doesn't play in the world series

    Hehe. Well, I'm from the Chicago Illinois, USA. So, I guess that makes me foreign to everyone else, even the nice English people.

    *Shrugs* They probably mean people that aren't American. Strange how that works, since the US is mostly made up of people (or descendants) not native to it. Unless they mean foreign to the Earth? But that another story...

    Yes, foreign means outside the US in this case. Or maybe people with other native languages than English.

    It seems the (vocal) Americans might beoutnumbered by the (vocal) Europeans on this board, currently.

    I'm Dutch/from the Netherlands.

    On every forum there seems to be a "piet" and unless he's an Afrikaner, there's only one other option as to where he comes from. Saying a "piet" is Dutch is kind of "Double Dutch"

    I guess so, although I guess on the internet everyone's from somewhere else.

    P.S. Why french tart (if you're from the U.K.)?

    I'm from the U.K. too. London England U.K. Europe

    I'm also from England and therefore shouldn't be foreign as most English people don't think they are!

    Fortunately I'm half Mexican so I'm def foreign all the time. Whether I'm in England or Mexico, lol.

    That was the very first thing I thought— I'm not foreign, I speak English

    LOL God you've got to love the British attitude so bleeding backward it's funny.

    Ever see Jack Dee comments on going through passport control?

    So, you've got an advantage when playing STALKER, you understand what the people are saying.

    Stalker is from the Ukraine... it's very similar, but not the same i do understand a little (i'm able to speak czech). there's a certain rule of thumb: the farther a slavic country is, the worser gets the understanding

    Yes, but I think they speak Russian in the game. Though I can be wrong.
