BUT If you buy a pc game from any store, online or B&M, and then open the game only to find out you can't get it running... you're screwed. I don't know any place that will give you a return on an open pc game, only an exchange. As far as the game goes, I can see people not liking it but shit, I'm so sick and tired of people pressing their opinion like it's a fucking fact. Murderdoll, what didn't you like about the demo? (I mean, other than your dark and brooding soul that can't find joy in anything... except Rick Astley.)

Well I bought it online, so there's no way to *open* it. No excuse but to refund my money. Faulty merchandise.

I understand that but you could TECHNICALLY still pirate the game with the files you've downloaded so they might get uppity. I hope not, good luck.

Posh, you cannot ask for a refund now because like you said, you have been roaming around forums and ware sites looking for "fixes" and "updating" the game software as much as possible. That wont go well with Steam. What is your system configuration? Can you post it here? Bioshock and Crysis are two games that require pretty steep hardware to work properly. I might be able to help you with this.

Who cares if Steam is pissed at me! Hundreds of people have had the same problem with Steam's hosting of Bioshock, and the only solutions they've found were fixes and patches. That's absolute bullshit.

It's not them being pissed at you, it's the company protecting their product and supposedly preventing pirating. PC gaming has been rife with bugs since the beginning, unfortunately being able to "patch" games made developers rush products out even faster so you encounter more bugs than usual. I remember having to patch Duke 3D because of bugs (granted, Oregon Trail never needed a patch but it might have been nice, too much Dysentery) and it's something you deal with if you're a PC gamer. Life sucks, get a helmet. :)

posh, do you have an Nvidia video card? I do and had a fucking hell of a time when i first got bioshock. Get the LATEST drivers for your card, first and foremost. you are also no doubt running vista, so you could try compatibility mode, though that probably wont help.
Try the new drivers and also try lowering the settings. Also, check to see if there are any bioshock updates available. out of the box, the game was pretty broken, but over the last almost 2 years they have ironed out the bugs. mine ran like sahit for 9 months, but has purred like a kitten ever since.
