they need to stop treating the PC version like kind of hated stepchild

yeah i would rather have the option of skipping the audio tapes than have to sit through hours of poorly done cutscenes

btw this game is uglier than the first one, right?

vag white band (jeff), Wednesday, 10 February 2010 23:48 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah the textures dont seem as slick.. Could just be my memories tho.

I think its kinda lol that you spend the game cruising around rapture on a metro train just like in dead space.

mayor jingleberries, Thursday, 11 February 2010 06:35 (sixteen years ago)

ugh the combat is so clunky compared to MW2

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Saturday, 13 February 2010 12:28 (sixteen years ago)

yeah this game is mainly abt the ~story~ and ~atmos~

chris nibbs (cozen), Saturday, 13 February 2010 12:33 (sixteen years ago)

that's what put me off the first one, felt really clunky xp

dyao, Saturday, 13 February 2010 12:37 (sixteen years ago)

yeah but if i have to ~kill~ these fucking splicers to get the story i'd rather not. someone make a movie.

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Saturday, 13 February 2010 12:50 (sixteen years ago)

jeff plz sell my copy on amazon thanks

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Saturday, 13 February 2010 12:50 (sixteen years ago)

if i could at least map it to MW2 controls i'd be a little more willing to continue :/

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Saturday, 13 February 2010 12:52 (sixteen years ago)

ok I got the sports boost a little less clunkers

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Saturday, 13 February 2010 13:34 (sixteen years ago)

ok i'm into this now. i think it is pretty important to play the first game or you don't understand the significance of being a big daddy and having a little sister on your shoulder.

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Saturday, 13 February 2010 14:14 (sixteen years ago)

just got it. still has a lot of charm in the setting and story and music. graphics look exactly like original i.e. a step behind the newer big releases. i am going slow as possible and playing on 'hard'.

bnw, Saturday, 13 February 2010 19:07 (sixteen years ago)

this game is unforgiving with the ammo.

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Saturday, 13 February 2010 19:51 (sixteen years ago)

yeah especially with the respawns. be nice if you regen'd even 10% of your health/eve

bnw, Saturday, 13 February 2010 21:24 (sixteen years ago)

maybe u 2 noobs wd be interested in this ~hidden gem~

forksclovetofu, Saturday, 13 February 2010 23:05 (sixteen years ago)

REALLY enjoying this now.

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Tuesday, 16 February 2010 18:39 (sixteen years ago)

so was my 6 year old niece as she watched me play in wonderment yesterday

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Tuesday, 16 February 2010 18:46 (sixteen years ago)

dnw (cozen), Tuesday, 16 February 2010 22:31 (sixteen years ago)

lol cozen gets high to watch benson

antexit, Tuesday, 16 February 2010 23:40 (sixteen years ago)

this has grown on me. those harvesting sessions really get intense as the game goes on.

jeff, Thursday, 18 February 2010 19:16 (sixteen years ago)

YES! and the big sisters!?

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Thursday, 18 February 2010 19:24 (sixteen years ago)

i've been rescuing the little ones and I didn't kill that woman. it's worked out pretty well to be a good guy i think?

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Thursday, 18 February 2010 19:25 (sixteen years ago)

i didn't kill her either but I killed stanley later. i totally missed that you could harvest twice with each girl and missed out on lots of adam :(

the multiplayer seems really dumb for all the hype they gave it. at least in cod you have to spot the enemy, here they have HUGE RED NAMES above them.

self-important coozen (bnw), Thursday, 18 February 2010 19:57 (sixteen years ago)

Do you get a shitload of adam if you use the little sister to grab adam from the corpses then tear her apart rather than saving her?

Big daddy fights got less challenging for me once I learned to put prox mines on a corpse and hurl said corpse at big daddy for a one hit kill.

mayor jingleberries, Thursday, 18 February 2010 20:18 (sixteen years ago)

prox mines? you mean traps?

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Thursday, 18 February 2010 20:41 (sixteen years ago)

i've found it effective to freeze the big daddies and then drill charge them over and over. if you do it right they don't get any attacks on you at all.

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Thursday, 18 February 2010 20:42 (sixteen years ago)

cutty good news I am def getting a PS3 next wk

hi5

whaaaaaaaaaaaat! so psyched.

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Thursday, 18 February 2010 20:43 (sixteen years ago)

<3 $$$freelance lawyering$$$

a passing heavy daftie (cozen), Thursday, 18 February 2010 20:44 (sixteen years ago)

i also had great luck using hypnotize on a big daddy to help kill a big sister

sir ilx-a-lot (cutty), Thursday, 18 February 2010 20:56 (sixteen years ago)

Proximity mines from the launcher. You can shoot them onto any large object and then hurl it at a big daddy for massive damage. All it takes is 3 mines on medium.

I hypnotized a big daddy who basically killed all my enemies in persephone during the boss fight which took the pressure off considerably.

mayor jingleberries, Thursday, 18 February 2010 21:21 (sixteen years ago)

rok out coz

forksclovetofu, Thursday, 18 February 2010 22:00 (sixteen years ago)

one month passes...

oh hey just bought this. btw for DORKS the limited edition version is on some sort of secret clearance at best buy for $10 more than the standard.

(hushed confession - that is why i bought this, and the shit you get is super cool, book is awesome, and uh vinyl bioshock soundtrack OK!. also you get the new game soundtrack on cd and some rolled up posters that i even i am too full of self-respect to display in my house.)

game so far seems pretty sweet, much to my surprise. still sweating the multiplayer letdown tho

First and Last and Safeways ™ (jjjusten), Thursday, 18 March 2010 07:09 (sixteen years ago)

on the downside/upside multiplayer is much better than expected until it CRASHES when i am in first place. bahhh

First and Last and Safeways ™ (jjjusten), Thursday, 18 March 2010 08:14 (sixteen years ago)

my blu ray disc of bioshock 3 cracked before i finish it. does gamestop have any warranty for broken discs?

shite new answers (cutty), Thursday, 18 March 2010 11:23 (sixteen years ago)

i am totally baffled as to how they got the multiplayer to look so shitty in that gamestop commercial

First and Last and Safeways ™ (jjjusten), Thursday, 18 March 2010 16:54 (sixteen years ago)

probably didn't have access to the game and built the animation from scratch.

forksclovetofu, Thursday, 18 March 2010 18:46 (sixteen years ago)

2k games is replacing my disc! yay
