Wait a second, people read these?

Since Bioshock: Infinite is coming in March, I'd like to discuss Bioshock related things.
Would you kindly stay on topic?
I got the very good ending for Bioshock 2 today, I think it should be one of the games you should play before you die.

The part where (SPOILERS) Sinclair becomes an alpha series got me by suprise, I had to kill my friend.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

New objective: Stay on topic.

OT: Agreed. I've enjoyed both BioShock and BioShock 2. The story, the gameplay, all of it has been great so far. Looking forward to Infinite.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

I didn't finish Bioshock 2. In fact, I didn't even get past the first level. Wasn't taken in by the story or the gameplay.

BioShock is probably the most unique and enjoyable singleplayer gaming experience I ever had. BioShock 2, however, was disappointing. Good, but not memorable.

Bioshock 2 was pretty meh. You were a Big Daddy, but you still were weak as -blam!-.

The story wasn't as good, Sophia Lamb wasn't as good a villain as Ryan, and some enemies were just a pain to fight (AKA heavy splicers). Overall it wasn't as great.

Infinite on the other hand, looks amazing.

For those looking to vent, get proper advice, or give it to those in need.

Bioshock Infinite is the real Bioshock 2 in my mind.

What's Up.

Bioshock is probably in my Top 5 of all time favorite games. Bioshock 2 was good but I think it focused a little too much on action and not enough on atmosphere. I'm a little skeptical about Infinite only because it seems to be similar to Bioshock 2 in the sense that it's more about action than the experience from the environment. I do like the first 5 minutes of the game though and how it's basically Bioshock's intro but backwards.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

I love Bioshock, but I've never played the second one. The Rapture experience just ended for me with the first game to be honest, nothing could possibly recapture the same atmosphere as the original which is why I'm really looking forward to Infinite because it's doing something completely different.

I still shiver when Doctor Steinman starts cutting up his patients, seeing the ghost of that girl crying outside his office with the messed up face, and the audio log where he asks for a scalpel and you just hear the nurse calling for help.

Bioshock 1 and 2 are both awesome games. The multiplayer in number 2 was pretty slick as well.

[Spoilers]

Bioshock 2 was -blam!- compared to Bioshock. The story was at best contrived, one of the most hyped villain introductions turned out to be a man in a strawberry jam jar and the big sister fights cheapened the new enemy into simply being a big daddy 2.0

I'm probably being biased, I did not like Bioshock 2 at all. It was actually a good game, but held in the light of the original it just did not shine.

Take me into your heart! Accept me as your savior! Nail me to the -blam!- cross, and let me be reborn!

I liked Bioshock 2. I feel its story didn't captivate me as well as the first game, but I loved the ending. Brought a tear to me eye. The gameplay was also tolerable.

I'm a stubborn guy. I love to argue my opinion, but unlike others, I'll try to see your side of the problem. I'm a triathlete, with a very heavy empephis on the swimming bit. Also, don't hate on the ~Quinton~ at the end of my posts. Why are you still reading this? #creeper #hashtagcashmoney for hashtaging on Bungie.net

I haven't played through either of the Bioshock's completely, but from what I have played, they are very fun games. I personally like how the setting of Bioshock:Infinite are completely opposite of the first and second Bioshock's. Really shows that the dev has a wide range of talent.
