Unfortunately this is still sitting idle while I try to finish out dragon age...then I just need to flip a coin to see if I play this or ME2 first...

This.

Also, I don't care what kind of cockamamy shit or excuse they have to pull, I want to play as a Big Sister for the next game.  Just in general, that seems a far more interesting idea then playing as a Big Daddy. You get to be a FUCKING NINJA with splicer powers.

Unfortunately this is still sitting idle while I try to get home before 8, get my internet fixed, catch up on sleep.

Hopefully I can give this a shot this weekend.

So that's why you haven't been playing TF2


Though with your job you can't shift your schedule


I think if I was being made to stay until 8pm (more than one rare occurrence) with as early as I get up I'd probably have just walked out saying "fuck it"

Only worked 7-6:30. Got out at 6:30, went to the company gym after work (for the last couple days). I got home, went to speedtest and saw I was still downloading at 1 mbs, showered , tried to game a little, gave up, and just went to bed.

I'll be back once internet is up/too sore to move. I'll be back to playing/seeding soon.

Bought this yesterday for 360. Pretty awesome. Multiplayer is pretty good, single player is pretty good. I don't see any scenes taken from thee first game. Some of the stuff in the multiplayer is kinda-sorta reminiscent of the first game but honestly ya I have no idea what your talking about with that.

The most obvious part that's stolen from the first game is when Eleanor Lamb is talking to you in the room with all the TVs and the Splicers are shooting up the glass.

That's not stolen, they followed a similar structure to the first game but the actual environments them selves are different , the elevator was much smaller and the cut scene wasn't on a big ass T.V. Screen, and the shot of rapture was completely out of any buildings at all. I think that's HIGHLY nit picking.

Also, Hold the ADAM is now officially my favorite multilayer game mode ever. I know the same mode has been in quake, but it has more to do with WHAT you have to hold and keep away from other players then the actual act of doing it.

I don't think you understand what we mean by stolen. And it's not even going against the game, so far it's a lot of fun.

The "good" ending of Bioshock 2 is so much better then "Bad" ending of Bioshock 1. It kind of makes me wish I had got the good ending in Bioshock 1 as well.

[Tricks]

I found the multiplayer to be buggy, laggy, and confusing. I am pretty bad at video games though, to be fair. Ever player, both team, said there were having awful lag for the three games I attempted.

[KarthXLR]

Really getting sick of crashing. Second time I've had to start this level over from the beginning. It's getting rather frustrating.

Don't you wish you had one now?

I do have one. I use it as a prop to keep my PC off the floor.

Beat the game.

Bioshock 2, great single player.

Not so much multiplayer.
