Story: Oay so  we are back in Rapture, the underwater city of the damned in 1968, Eight years after the events of Bioshock 1 (highly recommended btw).  You are now a Big Daddy (that's what she said).  The Big Daddies are the hard to kill dudes in Bioshock 1 that protected the little sisters.  This Big Daddy is the first of its kind bcs his organs and skin were grafted into an atmospheric diving suit.  Yeah gross man, but w/e.  Your name is Subject Delta (wanna know what happened to Alpha thru Charlie??) and you wake up and you have no memory of the last ten years or so. Basically you are looking for your paired little sister.  Now, the baddie, or Sofia Lamb, thinks you getting back together with your little sister is going to wreck her plans of Rapture Domination and consequently tries to stop you by sending out her splicers and the NEW big bad, BIG sisters!  (yeah they are creepy dude!)
Review: whew, ok where do I start?!  The story line in this game keeps you motivated all the way to the finish.  You have the A-Typical things to do, and being a Big Daddy is well, awesome.  I highly recommend that you play Bioshock 1 first so you know what's what.  The controls are basically the same with some very minor improvements, I like how they fixed the powers vs. gun control from the first game.  They also changed the Hacking.  I LOVE hacking in games and BS1 was the first time I had encountered it, and since then you will find it in Mass Effect, Dead Space, and probably a whole slue of games that I can't think of off the top of my head at the moment.  They changed the whole system from the first game and introduced a hack gun so you can auto hack from a distance.  The introduction of the big sisters is epic, and they are HARD bcs they don't come alone - you will freeze when you hear them screech in the distance - which happens occasionally thru out the game to keep you on your toes!  I played this game like three times right in a row it was so good, so re playability is a def, the fun to be had cork screwing splicers with your drill is epic!!  I also love how you can choose to help ppl or destroy them.  It touches on the karma adventures that are flooding the market, and completely changes the end so honestly, replay is mandatory. The in-game graphics are pretty much the same as in the first one which well, come on, really? I mean they aren't BAD by any stretch of the imagination, but I guess I just expect more from a sequel.  That being said, the cut screens are legen-wait for it-DARY!  The VO is exactly what VO should look like and should be held up as an example to all other games! Overall this game is awesome!
Likes: Hacking, Story line, VO and cutscreen graphics, ease of use of control system
Dislikes: No one plays the Multiplayer Online so its just you in a room.  That sux.  Also about the Multiplayer, its like they added it on as a 'woo this is popular we should do this' kind of way, and it just falls short.  Although the areas are expansive and the situational story is imaginative, it would just be better if more ppl were playing it.
