Review

The original shocked the video gaming world by not only being a great first person shooter, but also an intelligent one. Now one of the greatest stories in interactive fiction is getting another chapter, with a sequel set ten years later.

You play the original Big Daddy - a more independently minded prototype to the giant deep sea divers from the first game. The undersea world of Rapture has been taken over by the mysterious Big Sister, who has begun to kidnap children from coastal cities around the world.

A much larger range of plasmid powers are now available, as well as more standard weapons and the Big Daddy's iconic rivet gun and drill. The game's real conflict is emotional though, as you are once again forced to make a decision between sacrificing Little Sisters or protecting them and making your task even harder. Bioshock 2 will make you think, and not just about tactics.

  • Atlas shrugged: The award-winning story-telling of Bioshock continues with a new hero and a new threat in the underwater dystopia of Rapture.
  • Evolve yourself: New plasmids, including new dual-wielded attacks, let you unleash amazing powers but at the cost of your humanity.
  • Cry Little Sister: As the first Big Daddy you are far faster than the other lumbering giants, but equipped with the same weapons and the ability to venture onto the ocean floor.
  • Big boss: Defend yourself against the constant attacks of Big Sister by setting up traps and ambushes, but always making sure you have an escape route!
  • Separate lives: For the first time Bioshock has its own multiplayer mode - featuring a completely different story and created by developer Digital Extremes (Unreal Tournament 2004).

  • Rating 4 stars Not as good as BioShock 1, still good 09/03/2010 Read full review>>
    I suppose because Rapture and the characters are well established from the first game, this sequel has less of an impact. We know why Rapture failed, and the whole look of the place, so initially it feels a bit "déja vu" if you've played it before.

    The story, the main reason BioShock is a modern classic, is also weaker here. I won't spoil anything, but the ending is illogical and did not fit well with the rest of the story, I thought. That said, it was certainly emotional. Again, the plot is less innovative than before, and I suppose you could imagine this game as a "Big Daddy DLC".

    All in all, a worthwhile purchase for fans of the series - if you're a newcomer, try the original because you'll enjoy the experience much more.

    The first Bioshock was very good but this one is even better, with a better storyline, multiplayer option makes it more fun, slightly improved graphics. All in all worth the money.

    One of the best games i have ever played it is really fun and takes a lot of time to finish so you get a lot for your money but it is very nostalgic because it has a lot of characters form the first so peope who might want to play the first one before playing or buying Bioshock 2, great game!
  • Rating 5 stars Bioshock just got better 07/03/2010 Read full review>>
    I came across Bioshock by accident , It was bundled with Elder scrolls . and I loved it.
    So I was very keen to play Bioshock 2. And I wasn't disappointed !.
    You really need to play Bioshock 1 first and if you get hooked you will love Bioshock 2.

    This game is brilliant, fast delivery, very fun with a 20 hour experience,
    This is well worth the money, with multiplayer involved, it is truly a must have game,
