1 Like I hate those cancer commercials. Disgusting. I already know what cancer is. I'd rather just die than look like that.
@dan_saviola None of those hardly deserve a 10/10...they are fun but they don't do the best that the type of game does. Doesn't have the best graphics, the best most epic story though it's not bad, too many limitations, if I'm gonna give a game a 10 better have fantastic looking gore, destructive environment, lots of enemies and be fairly large in scale...none of those have that. demon's souls is a shit game. It's nothing but trial and error and though great visuals shit controls.
1 Like my main criticism of the game is that i never felt that i was playing as a big daddy , its like the game makers thought "rather than actually make it seem like your a big daddy , we're just going to tell you that you are one" would of been better if it actually looked like you were inside of a suit and had a helmet on or had the three bars in front of your sight like on the game cover.
@jordan119 I found it just right actually; you could feel the weight of the suit and the power of his blasts.
1 Like i have to disagree , i keep thinking back bioshock 1 where you have to dress as a big daddy , when you put the suit on you actually felt like you were looking through a helmet. Just didn't get the same feel from the 2nd, also didnt think they got the height right ether , the alpha series of big daddys are significantly taller than the splicers but in the game your pritty much the same size as them. I just think that if they kept the game the same and haddn't told you that you were big daddy, just told you that you where a normal human and got rid of the heavy footsteps, then it still would have been the same game.
just picked up bio shock one and two going to try to get through them and make my decision on pre ordering bioshock infinity even though the game is close in release with borderland 2..sucks
Both BioShock 1 & 2 are on sale (XBL & PSN) for ridiculously cheap prices; anyone looking to get into the highly anticipated BioShock: Infinite, should take advantage of those sales asap.
I love Bioshock,i played and finished both and discovered all endings,I really engoied playing as Big daddy,cant wait for Infinite!
@mack159 no, but i highly reccomend playing the first 1 before u play this, just to get a sence of the world your in, and see how it has changed in 2 and for lots of other things as well
I really want both bioshock games. I just got the demo for the first one(first time ever tried it) but it is amazing!!!!. I really want both BS 1 and 2 now,and i want to get infinite as well :P
@Scandals123 Because the first one has better reviews, and people are less likely to part with their used copies.
He meant lightning for those who are curious and can't find a logical explanation for why people are teasing him. Great review, bought it on a discount today
I thought I heard him say loitning at 3:46.Oh and this game is better gameplay wise.Story is better in the first one.
In my mind the relationship between Bioshock 1 and 2 is the same as the relationship between resident evil 2 and 3. Basically the same gameplay and setting, some new elements, but they shouldn't be considered full on separate games.
Bioshock is an amazing game,this is an amazing game,Bioshock Infininte is gunna b an one of the most EPIC GAMES EVER!!!
i personally thought the combat in bioshock 2 was better than the first. the first is still better, but the 2nd is still fantastic
@speedfreak48t5p it doesn't matter which one u get first, their both good, and bioshock 2 doesn't spoil the first
Picked up Bioshock for $5 the other week. Put in the disc and realized I got Bioshock 2 instead. I love it, but wonder what going through the original first would've been like. I will never know the answer to that question.
It's funny how so few people get the reference he was making when he pronounced it "Loitning".
I like how they improved the combat mechanics, but I hate how the length and the quality of the story suffered in the bargain. I'm glad BioShock Infinite is being developed by the same branch of 2K that created the FIRST BioShock. :)
