Woo, summon Eleanor!

SO I FINISHED BIOSHOCK 2 THE OTHER NIGHT. And yeah, I cried. D: I don't know, something about the doll and the music and the expressions ajkdjfkasjdfasl. I got the good ending and reading about the bad (and super really bad) endings make me want to go back and get those now. They sound brutal.

I really, really liked BS2. People keep saying, "WAI WAI IT'S MORE OF THE SAME." Which is true, in a way. But that's the best part. BioShock wasn't necessarily broken. There was nothing to fix. You know the whole, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" thing? They really applied that here. But the cool thing here is that the few crap things that BioShock did have, they corrected.

The hacking pipeworld mini-game that took you out of the action? Replaced by a real-time, hand-eye coordination needle stop thing. And you don't have to be standing right beside something to hack it. Now you have a REMOTE HACK DART BEST TOOL EVER.

I also love the fact that you see the other side of Rapture here. The poor people. Not the people who worked hard like the fishermen and so on, but the actual poor people of Rapture. The ones who got totally screwed over when they came down here to live a better life. Not to mention the prison/asylum. That level was amazing. It was really cool to see that there were horrible people in Rapture before the Civil War and they weren't sent to the surface like others were told -- they were sent to Persephone.

Still kind of wtf about Tenenbaum's Bridgette --> Brigid. I don't get it. Bridgette is classier. D:

And I loooooove the Audio Diaries from Ryan and Fontaine concerning Jasmine Jolene and Fontaine --> Atlas. That was awesome that they included those. AND MARK MELTZER WHAAAAAT. :(

bioshock 3 do want.

This makes me want to bring my Little Sister costume back to Dragon*Con. Although, it is very tempting to do one of the multiplayer characters (Naledi or Blanche, probably). Or one of the new Splicers. My total dream would be a Big Sister costume. O_O

Dude, speaking of multiplayer. I was so proud of myself yesterday. I was playing Civil War and I was on Team Ryan with four other people against a Team Atlas made up of 5 people. They ended up winning by only like ten points, but everyone else on my team had under 5 kills each and I had 17 with only 4 deaths. About half of those kills were in the Big Daddy suit I found. Usually I suck at being the Big Daddy but for some reason last night I owned it. XD

(I love that Naledi is one of the Splicers in the opening movie of BioShock 2. <3333)


(AND lyraeinne! DID YOU SEND IN YOUR TK APP YET? XDDD)

A friend of mine might do a Big Sister for D*Con :O

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

I really want to do one but I already have a billion costumes for D*C and that would be one that I would have to wear FOREVER since it's so much to make and lug all the way down there and so on. So I figure if I ever did make it, it would end up being for something closer so I wouldn't have to lug it all A BUNCH OF STATES AWAY -- getting all of our luggage into and then out of the hotel this past year was crazy enough -- I could never imagine it with ALL THIS BIG SISTER CRAP TOO, lololol~ XD

I'm excited for BS costumes at D*C though!

I looooved Bioshock 2 as well! Which is funny, because before it came out I was absolutely sure it would be terrible. So when I ended up playing it and getting pretty much as into it as I was with the first game I was totally eating my words.

I also love multiplayer but I am shamefully terrible at it. You should totally cosplay Naledi, you'd be awesome! And the world needs more Bioshock cosplay~

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

ME TOO! I was like, "Meh, I'm excited but I don't know how it will be. Okay, let's try it..." and then I played it and was SUPER SURPRISED AT HOW AWESOME IT WAS. We will have to play multiplayer together next time we are both on. And thank yoooou! I would have to figure out what to do with my hair if I did Naledi though I HAVE TOO MUCH OF IT LOL~

WHAT IS YOUR NEXT CONVENTION WE SHOULD DO BIOSHOCK COSPLAY XDDDDD

[bobbarker.livejournal.com]

It's been pretty amazing so far. :D

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

How far in the game are you now? ^_^

[juri-anne.livejournal.com]

Beat it two days ago. Definitely a great game, but no where near FANTASTIC as the first one. But I'm totally okay with that.

The one thing that bothered me - Tenenbaum. Not because of her name, but because she appears at the beginning AND THEN NEVER AGAIN! :( WHERE DID SHE GO?!?! *cries* I'm hoping the 3rd one will focus on her and where she disappeared to. Though, I would totally not be opposed to having the 3rd game be a prequel.

GOD I LOVE THIS series! :D I'm replaying on Easy for achievements, and then I'll replay it on Hard for that last single player achievement.

I haven't been doing that great at the multiplayer, but I am enjoying it. I've only played Turf War though. :) Lots of fun! If you EVER want to play, hit me up! If I'm on, I'm usually with my friend Bobby {ParaParaPony}, but we both would love to have more friends to play with, especially who love the same games we do!

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

I WAS WONDERING THE SAME THING ABOUT TENENBAUM! Since she never reappeared I was like WTF?? I started a second game and noticed that when she was leaving and wanted Delta to hold off the splicers so her and the little ones could escape -- originally I thought she just meant the ticket booth, but maybe they wanted it to look like she was escaping with them from the city..? I don't know, I found it weird that she passes us off to Sinclair (who I ended up loving XD) then we never, ever heard from her again.

I WILL HAVE TO ADD THE NAME TO MY XBOX FRIENDS THING! Cause we should totally play multiplayer! (I am Tenei Ka on there -- the i is capitalized, lol. I just wanted to warn you for when my name pops up randomly, hahaha~ XDDD)

[juri-anne.livejournal.com]

Im HermioneORourke if you didnt find it. :-)

I AM GOING TO FINISH THIS GAME THIS WEEKEND.

DUDE. I WILL TOTALLY BRING MY SPLICER BACK TO CON IF YOU DO ANY OF THOSE COSTUMES

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

HURRY AND FINISH GAAAAAAME D:

AND BIOSHOCK COSPLAY FTW <3333333 XD

[zhymmiajansen.livejournal.com]

Man, I want these games so bad, but I still don't have an XBox 360 (or a DS :( *wants Pokemon SoulSilver damnit*)

I hate being a broke college student.

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

HOW BROKE IS BROKE? Have you looked on craigslist or at stores like Gamestop for a cheap used one? CAUSE YOU SHOULD TOTALLY PLAY THESE GAMESSSSS~ <3333 XD
