Bioshock 2

[Sl!m]

Saw a trailer a couple months ago. though it didnt show any in game stuff yet.. Been playing the original again to finish by saving the little sisters instead of harvesting them and decided to look up some more info on number 2.

It looks pretty good so far!

This time you are a Big Daddy, you can 'adopt' the big sisters or Harvest them, splicers are around but a lot easier for you to kill, they attack you in groups as well. And a new character is the Big Sister, similar to a big daddy but a lot faster and pretty powerful.

also a pretty cool thing about this one is you can go outside of rapture and in to the ocean surrounding it. You are apparently the first big daddy so you can still use plasmids.

pretty good demo

Also I havent heard any more news on the BioShock movie, though it's meant to be released next year.. any one got any info?

It's not being made by Uwe Boll I hope? lol

[Sl!m]

as in the movie?

Nah its Gore Verbinski, he did the pirates of the Caribbean movies.

bah! looks like I decided to look up BioShock 2 info a week too late. Last weekend there was some Viral Marketing done around the world. Last weekend in Bondi a boat was washed up on shore with bottles of wine spread around it in the beach. The bottles contained maps and posters, all which are seen throughout rapture in the first BioShock game.

There is a website up called http://www.somethinginthesea.com/home.html .

What I have gathered so far:

the person who is in this room (Mark Meltzer) had his daughter kidnapped, he has been researching ryan and other people from the first game, he knows a bit about rapture but doesnt really know what it is. . . Little girls are being kidnapped around the world by what appears to be the Big Sister in the trailer of BS2. Mark had a run in with the big sister and ended up in hospital.. and a whole bunch of other stuff..

I'd say that Mark will end up in the game as some one that helps you through rapture or maybe out of rapture.. anyway.

[Big Amph]

Not soon enough!

Bioshock is such an amazing game.... Dunno bout the movie though... Games to movies rarely turn out well...

[Sl!m]

yeah, the movie was put on hold anyway - doubt it will come out any time in the near future.

Cant wait to test out the multiplayer mode..

I'm getting a copy of this. Only played a few mins of the first one but was good. Still playing borderlands at the moment.

is borderlands any good, I've read plenty of reviews and gameplay footage...

But still don't know if its worth it...

[MSTRshenanigans]

I wouldnt bother.. its like fallout except less fun... the redeeming point is up to 4 players...

i forgot how good bioshock was, the storyline was amazing

looking forward to number 2 but there is a shitload of other games i need to play as well... i gotta take some time off work!

[Nobi-Skratch]

I've been watching trailers for bio shock 2 and I cant wait. It looks goooooooood.

is borderlands any good, I've read plenty of reviews and gameplay footage...

But still don't know if its worth it...

I've play Borderlands a fair bit. Its alright but it can get boring. There are millions of guns. I spent more time building up my arms then shooting them.

Worth a go if you have time to burn. Plus co-op mode is pretty fun.

Just dusted Bioshock to clock it again

[Sl!m]

I am pretty sure I will have a cold on the 9th/10th of next month. Work will have to do without me for 2 days

ahahahaah Nice!

Hangin out for both these games, i am off to the US in 20 days, if i can find a copy there i will grab one otherwise the day i get back i will be placing my order!

[Silver-Arrowz]

Boarderlands kinda reminded me of WOW but with guns and grenades. Leveling up, different grade/type of guns, different class of characters.

[Yo-Yo]

I was watching some updates for mass effect, at least one of the characters has an aussie accent, last time I played a game with aussie accents was halo, is it the new 'nondescript international accent?' for games or something?

ie; like when hollywood forces their actors to do terrible british type accents to make their movies 'continental'
