Same here.

[canon.docre]

Oh I should have played 3 before 2. okay man. Whatever.

God you're such a fucking asshole.

hahahahah. but no seriously its more fun.

SPOILERSPOILER_SHOW

hahahahah dude. hahahahahahahah.

[riley-o]

I just mod'd my wii so I'll be playing all that shit on the post-haste.

[james]

Hahahahah dude I think the wonderboy games have code-continues????? I've only ever played them on emulators using save states so I don't really remember. That would be so crushing hahahahahaha

[riley-o]

They don't it's credit continues

I had eight credits

Immediate start over

[james]

what platform/port of the game was it??? they put those things on everything but a toaster. I have to know if you fucked this up hahahahah

[guardianoftheblind]

jame, i think you should get bioshock

i think you'd like it

[james]

jame, i think you should get bioshock

i think you'd like it

Alright. It is about time. Should I play the 2nd one? Or just 1 and then skip to 3

[Comrade Slinky]

Or just 1 and then skip to 3

This right here. Visit the second if you really enjoyed one and three.

[guardianoftheblind]

yeah that.

2 isn't bad, it's just not 1 or 3

[riley-o]

It was a PSN port of the arcade version

Doing a little research I've discovered there's a save state function

[MANTIS]

I actually thought bioshock 2 improved on elements of the original game. Sure, it didn't have the same sense of uniqueness but I disagree that it's not as necessary as 1 & 3. Play em all in order I say

[Comrade Slinky]

Second game is at best an inconsequential expansion pack release and at worst a shoddy cash in. Cannot compare to the central releases in the series, jesus christ.

[MANTIS]

I disagree. Plasmid & weapon dual-weilding, less annoying hacking minigame, and big sister most of all made it worth it to me. Lacking in the story department sure, but improved combat gameplay and abilities.

[The Bill]

Some review site called BioGamer Girl gave both Aliens: Colonial Marines and Walking Dead: Survival Instinct 7.5/10.

Fuck! That has to set back girl gamers by at least three years.

[MANTIS]

I disagree. Plasmid & weapon dual-weilding, less annoying hacking minigame, and big sister most of all made it worth it to me. Lacking in the story department sure, but improved combat gameplay and abilities.

WHAT? The hacking mini-game in one ruled and they they changed it to be for drooling retards (no offense of course) for the second one.

Well, in part 3 the 'hacking' has been downgraded even further to consist of a vigor and lockpicks that do it for you, and you like that game right?

[MANTIS]

I enjoyed the hacking minigame in the first bioshock up to a point but i tired of the repetition after a while. And though bioshock 2 was completely unnecessary from a story standpoint, I still feel it was absolutely worth it from a gameplay perspective. Different strokes

[FVBTVS]

oblivion lock picking was great..

[Zap Rowsdower]

I maxed out lockpicking in fallout before my other stats hit 50.

Besides in Bioshock 1, when hacking became repetitive later in the game auto hack tools were so easy to come by.

[Wormholegenerator]

I saw that some places marked this down to $130 after watching a review now I know why.

[DR. THRAXX]

They have already been hacked too. A friend of mine has one.

I love the idea, and would like to get that stick that comes with them, but I don't think so. I can play all the games I want online via GGPO or Supercade with lagless multiplayer, so whatever.

[DR. THRAXX]

This is the game I've been playing a lot lately. Quite a few Brazilians play it online too, I'm not sure why, but Brazil rules at Windjammers.

[The Bill]

Bought and downloaded Lego Star Wars the Complete Saga off XBLA last night... um, for my 4 year old. Yeah, that's right and I'm sticking to it, for the 4 year old.

[riley-o]

Everyone saying Star Wars sucks and is gay is totally right but it doesn't matter, I don't even care, that shit is so much fun to play.
