Bioshock 2 gameplay!

looks awesome, let's hope they dont make the pc version suck like the first one did.
 
Looks meh.

Having Tennenbaum talking to you (or anyone else for that matter) is going to seem super unfitting and stupid, unless they explain that you are a more intelligent and reasonable Big Daddy which is still pretty stupid.

From the looks of it, it will involve a whole lot of Little Sister escort similar to the first Bioshock's Little Sister Escort, which was easily the most annoying part of the game.
 
Yeah pretty underwhelming, I'd like to call this an expansion rather than a fully fledged sequel :/

I like the idea of water combat though.
 
I'm gunna rent this from Gamefly or if it comes out around my birthday ask for it
 
Big daddy suddenly being smart/able to use plasmids is meh
 
I'm still not a fan of the premise itself, but I was actually impressed. Using plasmids and weapons at the same time is a great change imo, and I liked the underwater part they showed briefly.

I'll most surely play this.

It was awesome, past tense. I wish Bioshock2 contains something really new and innovative, rather than just a renovation of Bioshock1.

We can't judge by a short clip. To me, that graphic is spot on: nice textures, fluids, shiny surfaces, an awesome underwater effect, lights and shadows. We'll have to wait for a demo.
 
F*ckin' A, I hate people complaining about graphics so much. Yeah, we've had a lot of "pretty" games over the recent years of graphical development, but they've all been shit.
Concentrate on story and gameplay instead of the motherfu*kin graphics race.

I'm not going to watch the video, so correct me if I'm wrong, but the review in Game Informer said that the ocean segments would be peaceful, without any fighting.
So fail.

Bioshock is not a simple shooter. It is a blend of exploring and fighting, following the footsteps of System Shock. Some peaceful exploring is fine for me.

Less exploring and more transit.
 
I really like the underwater effect. The rest... I'll reserve my judgment till I see more.
 
I hope this is more like System Shock 2 than Bioshock to be honest. System Shock 2 was legendary because of the atmosphere, whereas Bioshock was more of an action game than anything else. As a result the only thing really memorable that i took from it was the setting.
 
looks very good to me, slightly better graphics than the original. still need more HD vid

That's why I say "I wish". It is hard to tell definitely the good and bad from such a short and generic video.
 
Looks pretty cool, didn't play the first game all the way through but I will probably get this one, I might get the other one to catch up too.
 
It looks like it will be pretty good but more in the way of offering more of the same.

I can already see reviewers calling this bioshock 1.5
 
Looks okay.
Story's most likely going to be very shit this time around, though.

This time around? I still don't get why people rave about Bioshock storyline (or graphics for that matter), it was no better than any other fps i've ever played, and at some points a lot worse. If dull and predictable floats your boat, I'm happy for you.

As for graphics, it's exactly the same - any eejit can see that. This looks like a Big Daddy mod, at the most an expansion, but to call it Bioshock 2 and charge full price? nuh uh.

Whatever, it was good enough to keep me playing.
The way the story was presented was somewhat original.
 
The guy who made The Cradle level in Thief Deadly Shadows and Port Frolic (i think it was that one) in Bioshock 1 is leading the development of Bio 2, I think atmosphere will be good!

I love you.
 
Hells bells, a lot of people seem to be placing judgments on the game for things that aren't in that video, or anything we know about the game. We're just assuming games suck until proven otherwise now?

Welcome to the internet.
 
Last line makes it sound like Big Daddy's and Big Sisters are in competition with each other.
 
1st part was quite respectable, but when it switched to the action scene everything just fell down the drain...i was instantly reminded of unreal tournament or something. even HL2 didn't have such arcadedy fights.

if the majority of the game is like that, then it will be a huge disappointment

The first one was a ripoff and the latter dumbed down. So yeah, graphics (bar human models) are the only universally good things.

I LOVE deep sea diving and the atmosphere, though. I will buy it probably.
 
howcould a big daddy switch so quickly from holding a gun to using his drill arm. :|
 
I loved Bioshock. I really got into the atmosphere and the theme of the game. Bioshock 2 looks great to me.

Wow. Seriously? Is this the level of nitpicking that society has reached? Ever played Half-Life 2 with instant weapon switching? Team Fortress 2? The first Bioshock? It's a game, not a simulation.
 
I'm not convinced by this video, and I quite enjoyed Bioshock.

They have to do more.
