BioShock Was "a Blessing and a Curse" for BioShock 2

Thanks for posting this. It's always kind of nice to get a glimpse into what they are thinking when they undertake such a massive campaign like that. How are they going to top it for the proposed 3 (!) additional games?

Maybe you shouldn't make a sequel when one isn't needed and avoid the whole situation, especially when the first ended the series.

This is accurate. DLC would've been better - add multiplayer. I won't deny that drill-charges were fun, but a lot of the game was "and his friend, JOHNNY TOPSIDE!" and doing identical stuff with identical weapons.

How dare those bastards make Bioshock 1 so good! It really makes our crappy sequel look bad.
Yeeaahhhh...

The worst part was that only the marketing guys really 'got' Bioshock 1.

The dudes that made the actual game, did they ever play the orig. at all?

Of course they did, most of the plasmids are identical

You can learn that from the wiki, the things they missed, not so much.
