BioShock 2 News

BioShock was one game dangerously close to being perfect. I don't know about you, but that's how I see it. Unfortunately, I started playing it, and I didn't manage to reach the end. To be honest, I can't remember why I stopped, but I guess the "T factor" was the main cause. Yup, I am talking about time here. I don't know if I'll be able to get back to it until BioShock 2 comes out, but today I have some awesome BioShock 2 news!

According to IGN, this fall we'll get BioShock 2 right on our gaming machine, no matter if we're using a PC, a PlayStation 3 or a Xbox 360 to fulfill our gaming needs. This time, we'll be taken 10 years later, in the same unforgettable city of Rapture, but we'll play as a whole new character.

Obviously, everything is taken to a whole new level in BioShock 2 - new areas will be accessible, the genetically-enhanced splicers will be slightly different, and on top of it all - you'll be interacting with Little Sisters from a completely new perspective - that of a Big Daddy!

That doesn't mean you'll only play as a Big Daddy, because your BioShock 2 character belongs to a special breed, more of a prototype that turns Rapture's order upside down. As a Big Daddy, you'll be able to get outside the walls of Rapture more than just once, and more than just that...

Overall, BioShock 2 news is looking good. Unfortunately, there's no word out on the DirectX versions supported by the PC game, but it would be great to get BioShock 2 for DirectX 9, 10, and 11 video cards, that would really be a thing to see!
