Yeah beat it on hard without using the Vita-Chambers. There's another for beating 3 Big Daddies in a row without dying.

Awesome, going to do the same thing. :tup:

What's the estimated playtimes you guys are running? I'm the type to check every nook and cranny so I usually run longer than most.

I'm taking it kind of slow because I'm cheacking everything. I've been playing around 3-4 hours and I'm on level 3, that's playing on hard.

Chalk me up for the "I'll buy this when it's cheaper" bullshit. I only paid $15-20 for the first Bioshock somehow.

so i only played for 1/2 hour, maybe an hour, and i'm a little underwhelmed. it's more like a remix than a sequel, so far.

yeah that's pretty true. the last hour of the game is pretty fantastic though.

Just beat Bioshock 2. It had some cool stuff but ultimately to me it didn't live up to the first game. Gameplay wise it's better but the story was just okay. The game seems like it should of been longer, you don't really get badass until you're close to the end. I think it's more like an expansion pack instead of a sequel.

I was playing some multiplayer and it would be awesome if it wasn't for all the goddamn lag. I'm on the PC version and the lag is just insane, it's a slideshow. If they fixed it the game would be lots of fun. It's like COD with the rank up and unlocks. You get to equip two guns and various plasmids and tonics. The setup for your character is handled in your Rature Apartment which is really cool it lets you run around to parts of an apartment and setup your guy. When you're fighting turrets and vending machines are scattered all over the map. You can hack turrets to be on your side or sabotage the vending machnes to blow up when someone on the other side goes by them. Every now and then a Big Daddy suit will spawn and whoever gets it becomes a Big Daddy until they die.

Finished Bioshock 1.5 this afternoon. Missed two single player achievements, forgot to research the thuggish splicer all the way, and I guess the fuckers stop showing up around Siren's Alley? Also for some reason thought I could get the savior achievement while killing Poole.
SPOILERSPOILER_SHOW
Would have liked an end boss, also the game seemed to be at its hardest during Siren's Alley, by the time I hit Persephone it was a cakewalk.
Might try the multiplayer if it's any good, otherwise going to play through the first game again or finish my second mass effect 2 playthrough.
