I'd say that yes Goliath Awaits probably influenced Bio Shock

Almost didn't click through because I didn't want to read about Pauly Shore. Glad I did - hadn't heard of Bio Shock or the James Follett book. Thanks.

Pauly Shore, haha you are thinking of 'Biodome'
Everything harks back to something else, as far back as I can recall I would say Bioshock, Goliath AND Follett's book all stem from 20,000 Leagues, they may not be submersibles but all 3 are about a utopia beneath the waves far away from society, which is the aim of the Nautilus.
I'm not religious but I'd imagine there is a subaquatic story in the old testament about Atlantis or something that predates all of them, the Bible always has a story relating to something.
Opinions are just onions with pi in them.
