    Bioshock 2 gets a lot of hate for no good reason. The story is less ambitious than 1 & infinite, but they nailed the atmosphere and gameplay.

      I just remember not being interested in it at the time because they said you play as a big daddy, and the part in Bioshock 1 where you escort a little sister is arguably the worst part of the game.

        They got round that a bit by having the player be a sort of prototype Big Daddy, who was more agile and human like. You still had to fight other Big Daddies to get Adam, but they added a new option to temporarily “adopt” their Little Sister as well as harvest or rescue them.

        I haven’t played 2 in a while but from what I remember the gameplay was fairly fun, especially with the drill weapon.
