One of the creepy doctors were doing that after the boyfriend found the Inferno Plasma. Mark turned our character around a little bit...

Me: THERE'S SOMEONE THERE!
Mark: *turns in other direction*
Creepy Doctor: *ATTACKS*
Me: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH I TOLD YOOOOOOOOU!
Mark: GodDAMN it, Amanda!

It's funny because Mark doesn't scare easily at all... Unless I jump and scream... THAT'S when he jumps out of his skin.

I'm also impressed with the use of light and shadow, and I love the fact that if you hide, the beasties will just whale on each other.

I honestly recommend Bioshock for those of you who haven't played it. It's brilliantly done, beautiful, and wonderfully macabre. Not to mention, it combines three of my favorite things: Science Fiction, Post-Apocalypse, and Eugenics. mwahahahahahaha

I just wish I was a better shot... And not as much of a pussy. :o

We're currently looking for that damned dentist office key.
