If you loved everything about Bioshock, you're bound to love everything about Bioshock 2. When I started playing, I was worried that it was going to be "more of the same" and nothing new or creative was going to be able to pull me back in the same way the first game did.

While it is more of the same... It feels new. Namely, the ability to use weapons and plasmids at the same time (effectively), and the fact that you play as one of the original big daddies. The use of the drill, and the sound of your big heavy footsteps do wonders to make you feel truly powerful, and to good effect! While the game is still delightfully difficult - single Splicers feel more like a nuisance than a real threat - there are still baddies out there to be very very scared of ;)

I think the thing that has me most excited about this game is the truly compelling way that they've built in dual endings. Depending on how you play (save the little sisters, or harvest them for ADAM), the entire ending - about 2 hours of gameplay - has the potential to be drastically different.

I love bioshock 2. It's at least as good as the first.
