Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

I'm trying to get to this before Halo comes out, still trying to work through the Alan Wake DLC. About how long did it take you?...I'm a scavenger in BioShock I search every nook and cranny looking for ammo/easter eggs/audio logs

It took about 5 or 6 hours I think, and I play bioshock games like you, I don't want to miss any audio diaries.

Minerva's Den BioShock 2 DLC


Looks like this will be the first (and only apparently) Bioshock 2 DLC I get.

Started playing through this game last night. What a great DLC. Unlike many DLC that feel hurried, rushed, or less than the original game, Minerva's Den is a real treat. Quality audio Diaries, a good story line, the same gameplay we came to love in BioShock series. There are a few new gameplay elements, but like the original it's the combination of GamePlay & Story line that will drive you forward and keep you enthralled throughout. With regards to DLC that creates a unique gameplay experience in and of itself, Minerva's Den is easily the best DLC I have played to date, and a real bargain at only 800 ($8 to $10 depending on how you buy your 360 points).

If you enjoyed BioShock 1 and Bioshock 2, then you owe it to yourself to play Minerva's Den. Trust me, you won't regret it!

I agree with this 100%. If you enjoy the Bioshock games, do yourself a favor and get this DLC. This is probably the greatest DLC I have ever played.

Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

Finally beat this. Wow! I liked it a lot better then the first one. At first I didn't because the WOW factor of Rapture wasn't there, but it was obvious they were able to focus a lot more on the story line. I think being able to use the combination of plasmids and weapons was what I loved the most. Made battles so much more fun.

Is the Minerva's Den DLC out on PC?

Apparently not...

We will not be offering Protector Trials and Minerva’s Den on the PC in the future – and I want to say that I’m sorry for the disappointment this will cause to PC players out there. As always, if any of these issues change in the future, I will update you guys first, but at this point in time I don’t want to make you wait any longer and these are the most definite answers I have and you guys should deem them final decisions.

Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

It is.

At first it wasn't, but there was a huge uproar and was announced a couple weeks later. It's actually free for PC users from what I read.

Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

Played the first Bioshock for the first time last week because of all the hyped I read about in the past so I picked up a copy for cheap out of curiousity. I got to admit I am pretty dissapointed. Its an overrated game. If this is anything like the first count me out.

Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

Pirates of the Caribbean director Gore Verbinski was going to direct a big-screen version of BioShock. But, the picture fell apart. Verbinski now says why.

"I couldn't really get past anybody that would spend the money that it would take to do it and keep an R rating," Verbinski tells ComingSoon.net. "Alternately, I wasn't really interested in pursuing a PG-13 version." That's because, the director says, the R-rating is inherent to the material — "Little Sisters and injections and the whole thing."

"I just wanted to really, really make it a movie where, four days later, you're still shivering and going, 'Jesus Christ!'," he continues. "It's a movie that has to be really, really scary, but you also have to create a whole underwater world, so the pricetag is high. We just didn't have any takers on an R-rated movie with that pricetag."

No comprimise. Good job sir!

Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

I picked this up through GameFly after beating the first one, and overall I am still impressed.

It is kinda lame that you arent as POWERFUL as other big daddies, but I still feel pretty badass with the drill and pretty much 1 hit kos.

I also like the camera more, and the hacking more so Im still very interested in beating this game.
Oh yeah, and Im on Hard and its def harder than the 1st one (although I havent died yet)

Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

This game is fantastic. I've been playing this constantly since I started. I like that they didn't change much. I loved he first one and the ambience. I get the same awesome vibe from this game.

Multiplayer trophies ftl however.

Re: BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams

Well, I beat this the other night. What a great game. I'm thinking I might play it one more time on easy to clean up some of the single player trophies, may even try the multiplayer out to see how if I want to attempt those as well.

It seems beating this one without using vita chambers will be easier then it was in the first one.

True, I just kept saving the game every so often and if I died, just reloaded from my latest save point and it was pretty easy.
