Once you complete the PS3 version of Bioshock you unlock this teaser trailer for the sequel.

<lets out some wee>

Edit: Ok, thats a teaser in every sense of the word, but very very cool nonetheless. That Big Daddy doll is cool - made me think of LBP, wouldnt be surprised if one turns up as DLC.

Interesting too, those girls in rapture had to grow up sometime....

I think the forum may hold you to that should you be wrong....sure someone has some cats that would enjoy playing with it attached to a bit of string.

Buy it on PC maybe?   Plus..I didn;'t really think too much of Bioshock.  It looked fantastic and was dripping (groan :() with atmosphere, but I didn't get on with the action very well.

Good idea. I recently bought a new quad-core PC (4GB RAM, upgradable up to 8GB...650GB HDD...22" Acer monitor...512Mb Nvidia GFX card). But then again, there was a lot of negative backlash on the first game. Modern classic my arse.

Still...it'll be nearly half the price of the console versions.  I am thinking of buying Farcry 2 for the PC seeing as I probably won't be playing the multplayer on it.

The only prob is that I prefer to be sat in front of my TV on a nice sofa whilst playing.

So do I. I'm working on a PC all day long, the last thing I want is to spend another couple of evening hours behind a PC playing games. I'm so not a PC gamer...

Above average FPS let down by tedious plot "twist" and the fact there was only one plasmid you really needed to use.

I found the action/shooting really cllunky.  Sometimes when I was being hit it felt less like me being unskilled and more like the way the design of the game was.

Like light gun shooters..compare Time Crisis to House of Dead...in the former if you get hurt it's your fault.  Whereas, in the latter sometimes it is just inevitable.

Great environment and design. Poor gaming execution.

I'd love to see a pre-sequel with a living city, and some tale woven into that setting.

I'm still not sold, but then again the first one didn't do anything for me either.  GFX are looking superb though.

Me too.  I loved the idea of the setting, but the actual gameplay just left me cold.
