I just hope it's not another flop. [...] Bioshock 2

So do you consider Bioshock 2 a flop? It sounds new to me..

Having played Bioshock and right after that Bioshock 2 (which I'm still playing in these days) I must admit that I was expecting some more improvement between the first Bioshock and the second one, but I find BS2 very fun to play anyway: it's more "tactical" than the first one (especially when you have to protect the little sister from the splicers while she gets the Adam) and I also find it more challenging than the first BS
It doesn't make me strive to get it finished (like the first BS did) but when I'm playing it I just feel difficult to stop.

Unfortunately I do.

Yeah, there are some challenges like saving the little sisters from the splicers, fighting the Big sisters, OK.

To me though, the game felt rushed, and and the story wasn't really that compelling. Graphics were debatable - some said they looked better, others said the looked the same, I'm in the middle.

Now I'm a HUGE Bioshock 1 fan! I absolutely loved the story, the environment, art, graphics, music. For me....Bioshock 2 didn't deliver in any of these areas. Add to that the short length of the game.... well

Anyway if you want to debate it see this thread - So I bought Bioshock 2 - Special Edition….

BTW my flop also has to do with the contents of the Collectors Edition, even though I felt more could have been added, it is far superior than the collector editions of Mass Effect 2, Fallout New Vegas, and now, even though I didn't get it (collectors edition), Dead Space 2 (PC Version).

My two cents.

currently fighting for my life in UT3

- still a magnificent game..!!

It's good, a bit slower than one but ok. Story isn't too bad.

I don't remember dropping any spoilers.

I was just posting my thoughts. And for what it's worth, I haven't even finished the game
