Both TeamXbox and IGN Xbox 360 have previews up of the 20 minute demo they saw of BioShock at E3, which you can check out here and here respectively.
The game is indeed a spiritual successor to System Shock 2 and not a sequel, but that's fine by me. It looks like BioShock will feature a horror/suspense atmosphere like it's spiritual predecessor, interactive items, audio logs, hacking, weapons upgrades, and most of the things that made System Shock 2 such a great, immersive, and scary title.
Another interesting note is that the general monster AI will be very task-based, and by that I mean the monsters will have their own tasks, or day-to-day behaviours, that they'll be attempting to complete and many of them will ignore you unless you interfere or agitate them in some way.
Due out in 2007 for the Xbox 360 and PC, this is a title I fully expect to pick up.
