Bioshock 2 soured me too much.charizard1605
What was so bad about 2? The gameplay was much better than 1. Of course the story wasn't good, but that should have been obvious since it wasn't Irrational Games that was making it. Everything else was fine. Gameplay matters much more than story anyways.

[QUOTE="AtomicBaconBits"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] Bioshock 2 soured me too much.

BioShock 2 wasn't even made by the same devs, I really wish people would start realizing this. Plus, what was so bad about 2 anyways? The gameplay was much better than 1. Of course the story wasn't good, but that should have been obvious since it wasn't Irrational Games that was making it. Gameplay matters much more than story anyways.

I know this already, that doesn't change the fact that it still was a part of the same series, and it soured my impression of the series.

I thought the story was ok. Better than the first at least.

aaaand the Wii U misses out on more good titles.

Sucks to be a Nintendo owner or Wii U fan.

Nintendo/the Wii U are both terrible.

Nintendo, irrelevant to gamers ever since the Wii :lol:

It's funny how Nintendo trolls somehow manage to make every single topic and thread about Nintendo... even when it has nothing to do with Nintendo in the first place.

Scores are amazing! Though i was planning on getting this regardless.... I will be getting the boxed version on PC, and that only happens when I am really anticipated and hyped for a game that is on PC :) This will be my first boxed game on PC (not counting Blizzard) since Skyrim, so that's saying something.

Same here. Will be picking up my copy tomorrow, since I'm way too lazy to go to gamestop at midnight and wait in line. And it'll be my first boxed game since Diablo 3, which was the first since Starcraft 2. If we don't count blizzard games, I haven't got a boxed game since... holy sh!t. Bioshock 2. :P

It cut off the first one since there were too many. I just saw that someone asked if Infinite on PC could be the new graphics king, and all you guys immediately replied with something along the lines of, "artistically, definitely. Technically, not a chance." :P

That totally makes up for low rendering res, low texture res, scaled back lighting and effects, and brutal framerate dips.

I've heard complaints about all console versions of the game. I've heard quite a bit about how the PC version is better, but nothing about how the PS3 version is better than the 360 version.

Neither game's story was mind blowing.

 

But atleast BS2 tried to do it's own thing (even if it wasnt anything amazing) ....instead of copying System Shock 2's plot structure.

Runs very well, but has a weird stutter problem and everyone's been getting it. ilke when it has to load something the game drops to 20 fps and shoots back up instantly, not a big deal but enough to stop it dead for a split second.

Ive been getting very solid high 40s - 60s troughout. When nothing is happening then I get above the 100s

I was not a fan of the first two Bioshocks but all these reviews are making me want to try this one out. :P I'm interested to see how the themes of racism and religion are implemented in the story line. Usually games that dare to push the bar tend to buckle under the pressure and are forced to tippy toe around political correctness to avoid serious repercussions.
