An Artificial Intelligence Construct is a synthetic technological creation that is a part of a bigger whole. The AI Construct can be a self aware computer or simply a grouping of technologies that come together to form one large being.
The genetic dynamo that allows people to totally recreate themselves, ADAM is at the centre of more or less everything that goes on during the original two BioShock games.
Games with stories that involve aliens invading another planet.
Big Daddies are the lumbering genetically modified behemoths in the underwater city of Rapture. Clad in garish diving suits, these monstrosities were created to protect Rapture's population of walking ADAM factories, the Little Sisters.
Technology based on biology.
A large specimen with a knife and spits acid
A clone is a being created as a perfect genetic duplicate of another being, right down to the DNA.
The most common enemy in Killing Floor, clots are failed clones of the dead son of the mad scientist whose grief started the nightmare in the first place.
The weakest and most agile of the specimens in Killing Floor.
A gameplay plot twist in the form of revealing non-human monsters to battle after fighting more realistic human enemies for the majority of the game.
An organism consisting of both natural and artificial systems.
Given that Hell totally sucks, it's not surprising that Demons are semi-constantly trying to get from there to Earth.
Your friend in medicine. Mostly.
A once-great race from the Elder Scrolls series, now extinct.
Any type of lifeform whose species is on the brink of extinction. Important characters being "the last of their kind" was once so common in fiction that it has become a mocked cliche.
Any game that represents a society noticeably worse or less desirable compared to those in the present. This can relate to kinds of political and economic organisation, excessive human suffering, social problems caused by technology, or as a result of an apocalyptic event.
Games that feature enemies that were at one point unconscious in a sealed glass or metallic chamber (generally full of goo). Most of the time, the enemies break through the chamber to attack the player or are activated by an outside force.
Fire ants are a variation of the Giant Ant, with the ability to breathe fire. The result of an experiment gone awry, they now roam the city of Grayditch, incinerating everything in their path.
the most powerful non boss specimen in the killing floor game
Genetically mutated monsters that terrorize Pacific City's denizens. They appear in Crackdown and its sequel.
The highly mutated virus developed by the Umbrella Corporation.
A characteristic present in game characters with a superior state of mind reflected in how they solve problems and their way of approaching situations.
A state of mind in which a person (usually a leader or dictator) genuinely believes that they are a powerful god.
A moderately powerful specimen with a blade protruding from its right arm
In some games the protagonist goes through unwanted surgery, often in first person view.
A hostile artificial intelligence, or "rogue AI", is a synthetic being that has turned on its creators. Among the most famous rogue AIs from video games are SHODAN (System Shock) and GLaDOS (Portal).
When stuff that always used to work suddenly break down when you need it the most and you either have to fix it or find another way around.
The insects have stolen our crops! Are you a bad enough dude to commit insecticide?
Little Sisters are genetic tools utilized to carry and gather ADAM in Rapture.
They may be good or evil, but mad scientists are always performing experiments that are on the outer fringes of science. Ever since Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, they've been in the scene.
