Bioshock Screenshot Scenario contest

Here’s something to keep your mind reeling. 2K Games is currently hosting a contest for all players of its FPS adventure game Bioshock (360 and PC). The contest is called Cult of Rapture Screenshot Scenario Contest, and the devs have clearly set up the rules of the game.

Every month, 2K will be giving out a problem depicted in a gameplay scenario. Players will then have to try to solve the scenario by coming up with a solution submitted as an explanatory text of the in-game solution. There’s no right or wrong answer, but all entries should be composed of 1000 words or less.

For the contest’s first salvo, here’s the scenario. It involves a grenadier so beware:

While wandering through the Medical Pavilion, you happen upon a roaming grenadier, armed with homemade bombs fashioned from tin cans. He spots you and begins to charge, so you pull your shotgun, but realize you only have one cartridge left.

You run into the adjacent room seeking ammo (but find none), and the grenadier begins to lob bombs at you. Using your telekinesis, however, you are able to toss them away from you before they explode. Back in the main room and down a few stairs there is a flooded alcove, but it yields no ammo for you.

Trapped, you back out of the water as the grenadier begins to charge again… What would you do to kill the grenadier?

That’s the question now. What are you going to do? The contest’s official site, where you can email your answers, can be accessed via the Read link below.
