I’m not sure how much you folks keep up on them videa-games, but there’s more than a few significant releases looming in the coming months. Madden 08 dropped earlier this week, Halo 3 hits September 25, Mass Effect in November, Super Mario Galaxy and Smash Bros. Brawl are en route for early December, and a handful of honorable mentions are primed at their respective holiday gates awaiting the green light.

Aside from Metroid Prime 3, next week’s big one is Irrational Games’ (now 2K Games Boston) BioShock. Normally I wouldn’t draw attention to such an esoteric title, but BioShock began drawing 10/10 ratings from nearly every print and online gaming outlet across the board as the embargo was lifted on reviews this morning. It’s on pace to replace The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time as the highest-rated title of all time. Really. I can’t emphasize how unimaginable that is for a first-time intellectual property.

Hopefully reviewers aren’t simply lovin’ it because BioShock isn’t playing it safe. The game brings genetic mutations, thoughtful storytelling, and ’50s art deco design to standard single-player shooter mechanics. You patrol an underwater once-paradise intended for humanity’s brightest minds to thrive and prosper sans the shackles of regulation and morality. It’s gone dystopian when you stumble upon it, of course, but the denizens’ discoveries are used to your advantage: you’ll inject genetics-altering serums to shoot electricity, freeze enemies, and (no joke) spawn a hive’s full of hornets from your forearm. BioShock seems to be about thoughtful narrative and morality at its core, however — it draws on Ayd Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged” for plot advice.

My bless’d pseudo-career as a freelance game journalist means a review copy will find its way to me by Tuesday. I’ll let you know how it is once I’ve submerged a bit. Pray I don’t sink too far to not return.
