A Look At Rapture, A Decade Later

" I think y'all are missing the point of this sequel. From what I've read and watched, it isn't suppose to be like the first game other than the setting. it's a whole new perspective of the world of Rapture, thus therefore, a whole new gameplay type. In conjunction, those who are complaining about being "too" much of a badass, I'm assuming from this, that y'all didn't get to the end of the first Bioshock.   I for one welcome a change that is still in the same heart and mind of the first one, but from a different outlook. It's a welcome refreshment. However, I do somewhat agree with what one of the previous posters said. Did Bioshock really even need a sequel? It wasn't really set up for one, but whateves! I have a feeling this game will be just as good as the first one, but with a different taste.  "

As a huge fan of the original this looks awesome

This is looking a lot better and I'm sure it's going to be a quality game, but I still don't care for whatever reason.  It's like games are getting so good so often I don't even want to play all the big releases anymore.
Being awesome isn't unique these days.. or something.

This game looks  less god and more like a sub-par sequel everytime I see anything about it.

God are people cynical.  Do you want the game to blow you and make you sandwiches afterwords too?
 
The only thing I was worried about was not having a variety of weapons.  Now that I see all kinds of 'em, I'm definitely excited!

Okay

" This one... not even good enough to be called Bioshock. "

Some where... *buh buh buh buuuh buh*
 Under the sea...

Looks like the shooting won't absolutely suck like it did in the first one.

Weird seeing in a trailer an embargo lifting date.

At least I know Garry Schyman's score is sounding awesome.

Sweet trailer. Hoping to see some story trailers in the near future, though.

Interesting but...now we have a countdown until the embargo lifts?

wont be as good as the first

I'm currently undecided. I guess i'll wait til February.

The trailer looked pretty sweet, though the woman voiceover doesn't nearly give as many chills down my spine as Andrew Ryan's voice did.

Looks wetter.

I have to agree with all the others saying "Meh". I just am not feeling this, granted, the first was a good, solid game, I didn't get the huge wow factor everyone else got, and I just didn't think it was that great. So this looks pretty much the same, so I just can't get excited for it.

I don't understand the people who say that they're going to ruin Bioshock  with this game. If you don't like it, you don't have to play it, it doesn't make the first one worse. Everybody acts like they own Bioshock but it's still the same people so I don't see why it would be bad.

I feel really bad for saying this, but i'm not feeling this at all. Part of me really wants to explore more of rapture, but everything gameplay about this really turns me off. Show me some story, some THEME. Not just a bunch of shooting. I didn't play Bioshock to shoot things.

This trailer actually made me more excited for the game. I've been pretty indifferent towards it since the concept was first shown. I loved the first game, and I thought a sequel would be great if done right, and by "right", I mean expanding on the ideas and themes from the first game and actually having a sense of progression from story to story. The fact that the sequel is still taking place in Rapture doesn't excite me much. My biggest concern is that the game will feel almost exactly like the first due to the environments. And while that is still true now, the gameplay shown in this trailer looks a lot better than what was shown previously. Hopefully this game will be everything it should be.

" Interesting but...now we have a countdown until the embargo lifts? "

I think it looks pretty good. Will it live up to the first game? I don't know, probably not. How many games are actually on the same level of quality as Bioshock? Not too many. But I am excited to play this game and I'm going to remain optimistic about the game until I get my hands on it and actually play it myself.

Oh look, it's the Tank from Left 4 Dead. I wonder how he got down there.

Not a great trailer, the combat wasn't exactly the highpoint of the original.

I'm not really liking how combat oriented this game looks.

Thats pretty rad.  Makes me wish I finished the original Bioshock 

I'll buy it.

Meh, I felt the original was vastly over hyped, and this just looks like more of the same. I'll probably just get it on steam if/when it drops below £10.

Looking at that it reminds me of a mod or a deathmatch mode for the original Bioshock, nothing other that being able to walk in area filled with water and some new enermies screams something different that should be in a sequal.

I'll admit, it looks damn good. However, I'm still not convinced that there needed to be another BioShock game. The first was amazing in its own right and didn't need a sequel.

Not feeling it.. first one was great but this just isn't capturing it for me.

It is amazing how quickly it became so popular and trendy to hate on this, a sequel to an all-time classic, before there was almost any hard information released on it. A handful of "celebrity" video game "journalists" such as Gerstmann came out on their pedestals attacking it on podcasts from day one and all of these mindless sheep have jumped on the bandwagon. It's a shame really and pretty embarrassing for the industry as a whole the way they have reacted to even the mention of a sequel. It looks good.

Meh?  Game looks awesome, you guys need to quit being sheep.

Nice to see gameplay videos of the SINGLEPLAYER....not the horrid looking Multiplayer. I know Multi is special for some players...but really, the singleplayer is what makes Bioshock stand out from other FPSes.
 
Why does there always have to be a british womans voice though??

Looks fantastic!!!

I'm not quite understanding the people who are pissing and moaning about "more of the same look." ... You're aware you're in the same location, right? Not much is going to change...
 
Having said that, I'm becoming increasingly sure that the lofty expectations I have coming out of the first game will not be met by this one. The eerie mystery of "what the fuck is going on here" just doesn't seem like the focus from all these trailers. Story and atmosphere, not shooting, made the first one. I hope and pray they realized that while working on this one.
 
Case in point, anyone remember the CG trailer of the first one? You remember how amazingly stoked that made you? I have yet to get that from any of the footage I've seen for this one. 
 
But, it's Bioshock, and the first one may very well be my favorite game of this generation, so I'll be buying it day one.

" Did anybody else notice at the end of the video, how there were about 5 studios listed in the credits??? "

Eh... I don't know about this one. 

Fuckin dragon age trailer, right when i thought we were done with that whole odst thing. Are there gonna be mw2 ones after this? Seperately, so stoked for this
