The editors didn't like
Storyline is somewhat convoluted
Feels more like an expansion than an actual sequel.
Multiplayer uses very familiar modes
Game looks and plays a little too similar to the first title
Vita-Chambers still allow you to turn battles into a matter of attrition
Okay
Hacking can get a little annoying in places
The initial awe of finding and exploring Rapture is gone
The game looks rough at points
Multiplayer is fun but tacked-on.
Overly derivative of the first game
But with a less-involving story
Internet connection required for activation on PCs
Toned down horror elements
Lacks little touches that made original so great
Story
2K Games
BioShock 2 places you in the role of a Big Daddy known as Subject Delta who has just been reawakened after a tenyear downtime. Big Daddies are pairbonded with little girls known as Little Sisters
And Delta’s Little Sister
Elanor
Has grown up and wants to reunite with her Daddy. The only thing
A few technical hiccups here and there
Still a bit of backtracking involved.
Multiplayer lag
Buggy in a few spots
Many of the changes like Little Sister protection missions don’t work out so well
Challenge remains hindered by frustratingly easy dierespawn system
Doesn’t possess the haunting and thoughtprovoking storyline of the original

Abstract: Few gamers that played BioShock didn't immediately fall in love with it. The Art Deco style, the Plasmid-enhanced shooter gameplay, and the utterly compelling story made it an instant classic; one that will be remembered as a generation-defining gaming ex...
Great presentation; great gameplay; awesome setting; solid story; decent multiplayer
Toned down horror elements; lacks little touches that made original so great, Story, 2K Games, BioShock 2 places you in the role of a Big Daddy known as Subject Delta who has just been reawakened after a tenyear downtime.

I don’t think the question really is whether Bioshock 1 or 2 is better, because the experiences are different and it becomes unfair to directly compare each game. On one hand you won’t find the same astonishing revelations and twists, and you won’t fi...
Abstract: Back in 2007 2K Games changed the face of FPS-adventure games when they took us to the undersea world of Rapture – a 1940’s-style city with serious art deco influences that turned out to be some twisted utopian experiment under the command of megaloman...
Abstract: One of the things I deal with when reviewing a game is my bias for or against a game. It's impossible to be completely neutral about something and even the best reviewers have their own pre-set opinions of a title before playing it. So when I tell if y...
Abstract: I simply cannot think of another game that does a better job of creating an atmosphere than Bioshock. Building on the already impressive visuals of the first game, Rapture is recreated in even greater detail this time around. I found that characters sp...
Abstract: 1997’s BioShock was a truly great game. It’s mixture of story, environment, and great fundamentals left gamers little doubt that they were experiencing something special. It wasn’t perfect–the moral choices had little actual consequence and the hacking...
Abstract: BioShock was the ground-breaking game released in 2007 by 2k Games that has been the gold standard of video game creativity ever since. The game pushed the limits of innovation in every aspect of their game, and thus created one of the most creative, o...

Sequels made after games where no follow-up title was never intended have an odd tendency of proving proficient in the games industry, though the second is never as good as the first. Bioshock, many adored and I praised, set the world afloat with a sta...
