The world can be a really cruel place. While some of us have to satisfy ourselves by playing the BioShock demo, some of the really lucky bastards have managed to get their hands on the full version of the game, thanks to a SNAFU by their local Toys ‘R’ Us, that somehow managed to sell them their copies.

dskillzhtown, a member of the NeoGAF forums, went out to his local Toys ‘R’ Us store to get a new Xbox 360 Elite, since his Premium had red-ringed and had to be sent for repairs. And while he’s hunting around for the latest Madden game, what does he see but the game the whole of the world is going ga-ga for, BioShock. Now this guy isn’t even a huge fan of the game, but since Madden has this offer going where you get another Xbox 360 for half-price if you pick it up, he decides to get this as well. So not only did he get BioShock one whole freaking week before the rest of the world, but he also gets it for half the price, making him, officially, one of the most hated people across the Internet.

Others have to wait one more week, while we in India, have to wait, God knows how long before this becomes available here, considering The Darkness was released just around the end of last month here. Here’s another guy who’s managed to get his hands on the game. Excuse me for a couple of hours while I sit and spam everyone on Xbox Live who’s playing the game. Someone, please, anyone, BioShock give…. I think I’ll just go to a dark corner and cry.
