I enjoyed this game up until the time GFWL lost my save-games after a few hours. I couldn’t be bothered to play my way through it again. I hate GFWL.

I’ve always been of the opinion that as a plot twist it was rather pedestrian, considering that the remainder of the game did nothing with it.

The presentation of it was beyond excellent though.

But console players are fine I take it.
Why am I not surprised. I am already half way through. That is sloppy.

Looks like they messed up widescreen again, they are working on a fix though.

If I could give that man a high-five, I would. That is epic grade sass, and pretty much right on the money, too.

Tycho from PA had a nice line of Bioshock today:

“I don’t remember exactly where the critical dialogue on the original Bioshock ended up. Last time I checked, it was considered a black rift in the earth where red devils clawed their way up from hell; a warped creature of great lineage, withered by drink and dissolution. If your apparatus is returning a verdict like that, one that could take all that Bioshock was and deliver this result, I might have it calibrated. If you don’t emerge from Bioshock having considered it a net positive, that doesn’t make you smarter than other people. All it means is that you’ve mastered the unique gymnastics required to shit in your own mouth – to dilute your own joy, or the prospect of joy. I don’t ever want to be smart enough to learn that trick, and I suspect I’m in no danger. I’m old enough now to settle for the merely great, which I recognize is grotesque and counter-revolutionary.”

@Sanguine and Sam:

Good points, well made. :)

Would someone kindly paste the non-Steam Bioshock 2 Xfire parameters here? They’re in the xfire_games ini located in Program Data/Xfire (PD is a hidden folder). My Xfire decided to be a dick and fail the NAT check every once in a while, and lately I can’t fix it by port forwarding anymore.

Me too. I’m considering switching them and see if it works. I suspect I’ll still fuck it up half the time.
