Poll: Will you be purchasing Bioshock 2?
(Vote): Yes
(Vote): Maybe
(Vote): No



Anyone interested in teaming up for the pre-order combo pack on Steam?( also includes 4 copies of the original Bioshock). It's 134.97, which split 4 ways is about 34 dollars.

I haven't pre-ordered, so I'm down if anyone else is. PM me or leave a post.

If you're gonna post a shitty one liner explaining how Bishock 2 isn't even worth money. Don't bother, I'd rather not let idiotic comments derail this thread. Thank you.

I am skeptical about the multiplayer.. think it will suck.

Lil scared with the game too since original developer wouldn't go near it.

But after it is released I will probably pick it up pending reviews.

I'm not skeptical at all about the multiplayer or even the single player. I think this going to be one of the best video game sequels we've ever seen.

Bioshock 1 was worth between 5 and 7 euros. I don't expect the second one to be better so no i won't buy it.
Stop to dumb down games.

video looks really cool. Less skeptical. Still not going to rush to buy it.. but that is mostly because of ME2, FF13, GoWIII Can't afford ALL of these lol!

I never really got into the bioshock series. I like their combo pack idea though, that's pretty neat.

This was more like valve's idea, Borderlands had a similar offer.

LOL...

Considering the original was a major disappointment for me, I will not be buying or bothering with the sequel. Looks like the Ass Effect 2 - which is also a disappointment so far - will be eclipsing its release...

I very much enjoyed the first one, mainly the excellent (imo) story telling aspect of it. Combat was pretty eh... I'm not going to get Bioshock 2 right off the bat, but instead wait a bit for reviews first

Thought I'd clear this up, a bunch of the original developers are working on this. Irrational's Australia studio got renamed and is working on this project, and the Marin studio is run by relocated Irrational employees.

Pay for about one and a half playthroughs of the game with a couple hours tops for each one before the game loses all replay value?

No.
