BioShock 2 preview
February 2010 will see the release of BioShock 2, the prequel to the original popular first-person title for both PC and consoles.آ How's the game looking as its release draws ever closer?آ bit-tech have spent some time with the game to find out.
It’s probably a good thing then that BioShock 2 (which has apparently dropped the â€کSea of Dreams’ subtitle) is actually a prequel, rather than a sequel then. The decision to explore Rapture’s past and the civil war which left it as the shattered shell we fell in love with will potentially allow the game to compensate for the familiar levels with a greater scale of conflict and a more intact world.
Rather than casting players as a simple Splicer or another interloper in Rapture’s oceanic opulence though, BioShock 2 has made the unusual move of extrapolating the character from one of the most ill-judged areas of the climactic levels in the original game. You’re a Big Daddy.
Well, not just any Big Daddy admittedly. You’re the original Big Daddy. The first prototype who is endowed with enhanced movement and agility beyond what players were capable of in the first game, as well as free will. You’ve long been deactivated though and when you wake up in a long forgotten storage facility then you’re not entirely sure what’s going on – only that everybody is fighting and some powerful new factions have arisen in the chaos of this genetically modified war.
