Well, After a hefty 62 hours, i have Defeated all of this game and walked away with all 100% achievements!

This game is set in the City of Rapture! A nice looking city made by reasonable people who know what they want and how to get it done.

You are a Big daddy, For if you remember bioshock 1 was the big water-diver looking fella with a big angry looking drill and being far too eager to show you where he wants to put it.Yeah, That one...

You as a big daddy are wandering around the nice looking city with your little sister doing the rounds untill some blokes try to approach your little sister without asking first. You show these kind gentlemen through rationale that your little sister is not available to play and show them the door. It suddenly turns out that your little sisters mommy didn't like you anymore and asks you very kindly to take her pistol and blow your brains out over the nice new rug in-front of your little sister. At least we don't got to pay for the dry-cleaning!

We somehow against the reality of braining ourselves just moments ago wake up a few YEARS into the future to the sight of the nostalgic view of the s**t-riddled city we all came to love.

Now you, as a somehow not decomposed big daddy who should have a nice new air-hole in his helmet must discover what happened, why mommy didn't consent to you going on a walk with your little sister and discover where she went!

Unlike bioshock 1 you have the amazing ability to use BOTH HANDS AT THE SAME TIME, instead of only using one for both your plasmids and guns! Now you can use one hand to drill that one bloke who gave you a slightly funny look through the eye while trying to push bits of rock or anything else you find on the floor through the hole with your telepathy.... Or just set fire to it i suppose?

You get a veritable armory of weaponry and powers to play around with, adding to the fact that a big daddy was stupidly tough enough with just his big angry-looking drill and is now running around with the ability to conflagrate a person and use a minigun.... for example....

The gunplay is satisfying as you riddle a bunch of pipe-wielding men/whamen with your many guns and beat the others to death with the pointy drill bit you have for an arm. And shooting your powers around to create the carnage is also very fun as you turn a room into a bouncy-castle as you place 10-too many cyclone traps on the floor outside the door causing the poor sod to nearly clip through the ceiling and violently spazm half through the roof.

There is yet MORE KARMA as you find more little sisters! After a polite discussion with the big daddy and promising to bring her home before 10, you can either get the little sister to harvest from corpses to gather more currency to get more power, or can outright save/murder the little girl.

You can save the little one and Earn their gratitude of managing to be alive and free from the evile people. OR you can get more power and just "harvest" the little ♥♥♥♥♥♥ by ripping out the slug and effectively murdering a small child, Ehh Details...

The story is... ok..?

It has it's turns/twists as you encounter people with a storied past and the ability to interact with them by either allowing yourself to forgive them or give them a stern telling off and a dissappointed finger-wag in their direction.

This will all culminate towards the finale in where you put all your power to the test and proceed to it's conclusion!

The DLC is also very fun with similarities to what i wrote above barring the story, the DLC story is good!

The achievements are all pretty simple but can take some time, but after the elbow-grease i am happy to have my screenies, achievements and the memories/friends i made along the way.

8/10 - Would Big-Daddy Again!
