Look Mr. B, an angel

--Graphics-- 7.5
When i heard there was going to be a return to Rapture, I nearly wet myself. The original Bioshock was a powerhouse of a game in the visual department, but this new one..... When i began my journey it looked like the didn't really improve on the graphics at all, but I soon learned that graphics were not why i was playing this game. But while i played, i noticed some extreme differences from the first. The lighting was improved and the water FX was a massive improvement. I liked the way i felt as though i was underwater. Really something to see.

--Story-- 8.5
I have to admit that i wondered why you would start out as a Big Daddy, and as i played i noticed that there is a much more sinister history than the one Ryan told us in the first one. Little sisters being bonded to the Daddies, that's cruel even to me. It was a real blast to have the recordings back also, made me live through the events of other people. And the big thing that kicked this game into overdrive was the Big Sister, she was a fight for sure. and to learn that they were sisters left behind from the first one was a shock too.

--Gameplay-- 8.0
Now i understand that we all need to play an advanced version but in truth they could have left it the same as the first one and it would still have been fine, i have another problem with this game too(and it may have been only me) but around 3/4 of the way through the game i was unable to use my guns, if this has happened to others let me know. Now on to the good stuff, including the new water parts. That was one of the best parts, no longer are we limited to elevators and the whatnot, now we get to walk on the sea floor and even find ADAM out there, woot woot. The weapon upgrades and Plasmids are beyond the first tittle and really make you enjoy taking enemies down with them. I also had a blast with the online mode, mostly cause i never had to insult anyone, lol play it to find out why.

--Overall-- 8.0
Well it was another great trip down under the sea and i saw many great things come out of this new tittle, I've always been a bit weary of sequels and most of you can agree that its rare to find a good one. If i learned anything about this game its that i never can tell when the goods will be awesome. i hope you all get a chance to play this one, and use the Nine Iron well.....

As i have been off reviews lately i feel it only right to fill you all in.

I no longer have a PS3, i have returned to the 360 and will most likely stay there. I will try harder to post reviews faster but i can't guarantee anything
