Product Description
-------------------
Follow-up to BioShock, 2K Games' critically accled
and commercially successful 2007 release, BioShock 2 is a
first-person shooter set in the fictional underwater city of
Rapture. As in the original game, BioShock 2 features a blend of
fast-paced action, exploration and puzzle-solving as players
follow varying paths through the overarching storyline based on
the decisions that they are forced to make at various points in
the game. In addition to a further ing out of the
franchise's popular storyline, players can look forward to new
characters, game mechanics, weapons, locations and a series
first, multiplayer game options. Set approximately 10 years after
the events of the original BioShock, the halls of Rapture once
again echo with sins of the past. Along the Atlantic coastline, a
monster - somehow familiar, yet still quite different from
anything ever seen - has been snatching little girls and bringing
them back to the undersea city. It is a Big Sister, new denizens
of Rapture who were once one of the forgotten little girls known
as Little Sisters, known to inhabit the city's dank halls. No
longer a pawn used to harvest ADAM, the dangerously powerful
gene-altering lifeblood of Rapture, from the bodies of others and
in turn run the risk of being harvested herself, the Big Sister
is now the fastest and most powerful thing in Rapture. You, on
the other hand are the very first Big Daddy, in fact the
prototype, that for some reason has reactivated. You are similar
to the Big Daddies familiar from the original BioShock, but also
very different in that you possess free will and no memory of the
events of the past ten years. The question is, as you travel
through the decrepit and beautiful fallen city beneath the waves,
hunting for answers and the solution to your own survival, are
you really the hunter, or the hunted?

The original shocked the video gaming world by not only
being a great first person shooter, but also an intelligent one.
Now one of the greatest stories in interactive fiction is getting

multiplayer mode features a completely different story and even
developer Will you save the Little Sisters or exploit them? As a
Big Daddy you can now venture outside of Rapture and onto the sea
floor
You play the original Big Daddy - a more independently minded
prototype to the giant deep sea divers from the first game. The
undersea world of Rapture has been taken over by the mysterious
Big Sister, who has be to kip children from coastal cities
around the world.
A much larger range of plasmid powers are now available, as well
as more standard weapons and the Big Daddy's iconic rivet and
drill. The game's real conflict is emotional though, as you are
once again forced to make a decision between sacrificing Little
Sisters or protecting them and making your task even harder.
Bioshock 2 will make you think, and not just about tactics.
