  • 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...

  • Retains the solid combat system of the original Bioshock, Storyline is a unique twist on the series, Minor changes to hacking, research, and combat work out well, Multiplayer mode is surprisingly addictive
  • 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

  • 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...

  • Abstract:  Let’s get down to business. You are reading this review because you either want to confirm this game is as awesome as you assume it is, is as terrible as you assume it is, or you actually want advice as to whether you should purchase it or not. For the...

  • Same great gameplay as the original, great environments, and beautiful sound track and score,
  • Storyline is somewhat convoluted, feels more like an expansion than an actual sequel.
  • 2K Games sends us back to Rapture ten years after the events of the original game with BioShock 2. Does Bioshock 2 hold water and live up to it’s predecessor’s reputation, or does it sink to the bottom of the ocean to rust in Davey Jones&rsquo...
