I love the story and music in BioShock 1. Can't wait for Infinite because I feel like it's the true sequel to the original. tried Bioshock 2 and hated it.

Hellsvacancy5199d ago

I agree, Bioshock 2 just felt like Bioshock 1.5

Guitardr855199d ago

bIOSHOCK 2 SUCKED!!! We just need to remember that it was made by a completely different development team than the one that made one and is making Infinite. For all intents and purposes, Bioshock Inifinite IS the real Bioshock 2.

Solid_Snake375199d ago

It didnt feel like Bioshock 1.5... The drill saved the game for me...

jony_dols5199d ago

Why all the Bioshock 2 hate?

Albeit it was not as good as Bioshock 1 (then again how many games are!), but I thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless. It expanded Rapture's lore, introduced new plasmids & we got to use a Big Daddy drill.

Bring on Bioshock Infinite!

spunnups5199d ago

bioshock 1 was one of the best
games ive ever played,
buoshock 2....one of
the biggest disappointmenting follow up sequels

r215199d ago

wow, so much negativity for bioshock 2. for me, the game was superb, great combat, pretty good story and very emotional endings.

kreate5199d ago

Agreed. Bioshock 2 was great.

The problems were the multiplayer component, lacking story compared to the first one, and the shortness.

But everything else from weapons to trap skills, gameplay and enemies, the big sister made it a more fun game than bioshock 1.

Kakihara5199d ago

Bioshock 2 is in the same boat as Fallout New Vegas for me. On paper it looks like it should be the far better game, it makes a ton of improvements over the original but it just misses the point of what made it's predecessor so great.

Like Fallout New Vegas took a desolate sepia toned atmospheric world and turned it into a wacky densely populated technicolor playpen, Bioshock 2 took a game based around the feeling of being trapped, helpless, weak and scared and replaced it with lumbering around as the biggest scariest enemy from the last game. It's like Amnesia the dark descent 2 making you play as a demonic zombie or something, it just cancels out any sense of tension and completely misses the point of what made the first game so great.

That was announced at E3, along with Move support and BioShock Vita, wasn't it?

maverick405199d ago

Needless but cool nonetheless.

HarryMasonHerpderp5199d ago

I actually preferred bioshock 2 over the first.
Thought the enemies looked cooler and i like
the part where you play as a little sister that
was really cool too.

Bioshock is one of my favourites franchises. I love all 3 games and have played each several times. I even have a room in my house that is loosely decorated around the theme of Bioshock (with a Lighthouse, coral models and postcards styled as though they are from both Rapture and Columbus).

And yet I am going to find it extremely difficult to get even remotely excited about any future episode in the series after all the problems this has had in its development cycle.

Leave the franchise alone. Remaster them again if you have to. Then put whatever talent you have to use on something brand new.

Furesis297d ago

Since ken levine isn't involved i'm not surprised what's going on. i'm more excited for his next game which looks like bioshock. Yet he still works under take2 and they are making bioshock 4 without him, strange situation.

toxic-inferno297d ago

Yes. Judas. Looks brilliant, but it's one of those games that seems to never have had a release date. Instead it's had release windows that keep getting pushed back.

Once it's ready, I'll be there for it though. Ken Levine is an excellent developer.

I get the feeling he dissolved Irrational Games simply so that 2k couldn't tell him what to do. It seems it will pay off, but I feel sorry for those who worked as part of Irrational before it was dissolved, who hadn't independently made a name for themselves.

ActualWhiteMan296d ago

He didn’t even want to make 2, that’s why they did it without him.

Rebel_Scum297d ago

tbh it wouldnt be a Bioshock game without development hell. They all had it.

Michiel1989296d ago

bioshock 2 was 2.5 years after 1, so much of a development hell it was......

-Foxtrot296d ago

"Remaster them again if you have to"

Well apparently they were doing a remake but that got cancelled

Relientk77297d ago

It sucks this game is in development hell because I love BioShock and would love a 4th game. I hope it turns out great, but I guess we'll see.

P_Bomb297d ago

Love Bioshock. It’s too bad what’s going on. At least we have Judas.

Yui_Suzumiya296d ago (Edited 296d ago )

It's been in development hell since 2014. This is nothing new. It saddens me because it's one of my favorite series. At this point, Judas may end up releasing first.

BABI-PANGPANG296d ago

Bioshock 4 (if it ever comes out) will probably still look and play like a Bioshock game, but without Kevin, it might miss that spark that made the originals so special. Honestly, Judas might end up feeling more like the real spiritual successor.
