Well, I hope they retooled the shooting bits then. Bioshock was a great game, but it sure as hell wasn't because of the shooter aspect.

This is why Condemned 2 fucking sucked. Might as well forget about BioShock 2. Everyone remember to blame "Green Man"

Did anyone play Bioshock and think, "Oh, man. I totally wish I could be running and gunning with other people online"?

I wouldn't mind multiplayer Bioshock if it was like The Ship, but this looks like random death match dogshit.

If you haven't played The Ship, it was all about killing another person in secret.  You had to worry about not looking like a lunatic and making your victim suspicious, social status, security, basic bodily functions (sleeping, toilet, cleanliness), and the person who is coming after you.  It was awesome because you had to play mind games with your victim, like pretending you were getting chased, running into the same room as them and trying to keep the door shut; in the moment when they think you're not hunting them, you drive an axe into their back.  Judging from the audio diaries in Bioshock, it seemed like everyone was a bit messed up in the head, but hid it because of their social status.  It could have been similar. 

The Ship was so awesome.  The best would be getting your victim to suspicious that they would take out a weapon to attack you, but you planned for it and exposed them in a crowd, so they were sent to jail.  Then you lurked outside the jail, just stalking them and waiting for their release; you've already bribed the guard and have your weapon out (in this case, a poison needles that causes them to vomit to death).

Looks fun enough. Digital Extremes is a pretty talented developer and I'm sure they'll deliver something mildly enjoyable for a week.

I'll give it a rent to see what DE did in terms of online but playing as a big daddy for 10 hours just doesn't click with me.

I thought Bioshock had a great story.  The shooting was a bit wonky at times and there wasn't a lot of motivation to be "bad" but hopefully they fix that with the sequel.  Hopefully they also drop the multiplayer.

People actually care for a multiplayer mode for Bio2?

Fuck you. Can't a game just have a strong singleplayer experience, instead of adding a tacked on online mode?

Why waste time on a multiplayer option for such a game? There are so many other alternatives...

another good single-player FPS ruined by some shoehorned MP.  I guess the -shock series is over.

I'm hoping that they just wise up and either drop this altogether, or adapt it into some quasi-RPG like thing like what swaggaz said.

bunch of videos explaining the gameplay and the story.  It looks like it's shaping up.

btw, this would make a great pc case for bioshock.

single player footage looks very good although the story is going to be entirely too predictable

meh.

While I certainly have some issues with some of what has been shown of Bioshock 2, those are relatively benign MP achievements although who knows what the secret achievements are.

One multiplayer achievement is already too many, but the worst is the "get to rank xx" ones. What a grind that's gonna be :-\

The problem with Mp achievements is not that they exist but the ones that cause you to play the mp in a manner you wouldn't. If its simply mp achievements based on how you already play the game then its no different than single player achievements.

The problem with MP achievements is that they exist in games with poorly designed, tacked-on multiplayer. I don't mind them in CoD, Halo, fighting games, etc. since that is obviously a huge focus of the games. But to throw them into something like The Darkness, Riddick, Overlord or Bioshock - games that *no one* cares to play online - then they're just an annoyance. Or hell, multiplayer achievements in games that no one cares about to begin with, like Dark Sector or Turok. Who will play those games over games that matter? No one; they're dead on arrival.

If I had it my way, every game would have the full 1000/platinum obtainable in single player.

Not that I put much stock in reviews in general but its nice to hear some positive impressions on this title.

Quote
PSM3 and PC Gamer (via CVG) have the first reviews of BioShock 2 in the world, with both mags giving the game over 90 percent.

PSM3 went for 93 percent [Much better than 92 percent - Ed], saying it “tops the original in terms of storytelling and combat,” while PCG awarded it 90 percent.
They said: “It’s still better written than pretty much anything else out there.”
The 2k shooter is out on February 9 for PS3, 360 and PC

I'm perfectly neutral on the title.

The best aspect of the first game was the story. The shooter bits were average. If the story interests me this time then I'll probably enjoy it. If not then I won't.

If you pre-order Bioshock 2 at Gamestop you get 2 "exclusive" multi-player characters...a fat farmer guy and a woman.  Does anyone know if they'll really be exclusive or are they unlocked as you level up or maybe available to buy with DLC?? I just want the fat farmer
