Seriously, just play it.
OP shamelssly stolen from Smashman.
Reading the OP I realized I haven't run into the boys of silence yet. Even after all the time I've put into the game I still have quite a bit to go.
My OP, my beautiful OP.
I wanted to continue to improve you, but you have been left to rot and die in a thread of death!
Alas, enjoy your single day, Kirby!
So, what's the best all-around vigor combo?
I've used Bucking Bronco and Devil's Kiss for my first run on hard, and I found that they worked really well on large crowds of enemies. I've heard a lot of people saying they like Murder of Crows, though it feels pretty weak to me.
Also, was anyone else disappointed when they decided to only use Shock Jockey as a method to open up secret areas a couple times and then just forgot about it for the rest of the game?
Are the screenshots in the OP official shots?

Don't think so.
Also, you should post your SweetFX settings, I'd love to use them for another playthrough.
Why do you keep putting [sp]Songbird[/sp] among the special enemies in the OP? [sp]you never fight him[/sp]

I will live on your legacy and improve it.
....
Tommorow, I have screenshots of all vigor bottles, figure it's a nice touch, but for some reason they don't show up on my own pc.
Also this is my thirth bioshock thread, so I've actually got more days than anyone else!

wat is dis.
It intrigue me.
I really wish that Amazon 2K credit worked with retail games, so I could buy Bioshock 2 on the console and not have to deal with the shit PC version.
What a beautifully crafted ending. As the game went on and I listened to audio diaries I started drawing some conclusions. The great thing about the story is that they put all these things in place so you can start hypothesizing about the truth but leave out that one key string that attaches it all and leading up to the end you're brain is restlessly fretting "HOW DOES IT ALL CONNECT"
Can Ken do it again?

I just finished the game, that's got to be the most complex [sp]suicide attempt[/sp] in history.
[sp]how does the post-credits scenetie into all this? Booker should be dead, shouldn't he? Does it mean there's still a timeline left where he wasn't drowned?[/sp]

[sp]The end credits scene gives an idea that because Booker never got baptized, Comstock never existed and he never sold his daughter and now he lives a normal life with Anna[/sp]

How did you end up removing the hud and enabling flycam? I've been trying to get both of those to work but to no avail.
[QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;40084665][sp]but he's dead, he had drowned before making that choice.[/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp]The Booker that was drowned was the one destined to be Comstock. The Booker you see at the end is a Booker from an alternate timeline. Elizabeth broke the loop by killing Comstock!Booker and thus no one was there to buy Anna from Booker.[/sp]
[QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;40084665][sp]but he's dead, he had drowned before making that choice.[/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp]Exactly, that is the point. By being dead, Comstock would never have been "born", and Booker would've never given away Anna. What I'm assuming is that time must have backtracked or something to a point where Booker and Anna live a happy life because Booker never went to get baptised[/sp]

[sp]But there was noone to sell her, either. There was noone to concieve Anna. She doesn't exist. The baptism was where the timelines branched. Drowning booker removed all the possible timeline branches after baptism from existence.
Not to mention he says "I'm both" when asked whethere's he's comstock or booker[/sp]
Letuce/s need an entire DLC

[sp]Well, if he never even went to get baptised, that would make sense I guess.
but that would also make another timeline
jesus this is confusing[/sp]
[sp]There's a lot of other things to consider though. When was Anna conceived, what was the exact time Booker went to be baptized?[/sp]
I've been thinking, how cool do you guys think it would have been to [sp]fight Songbird? I imagine a huge, extensive fight where you spend most of the time zipping along the sky-lines shooting at him and spaced with short little platforms or blimps where you could land to resupply would have been really neat. Imagine Songbird doing a flyby and knocking out the line you're on so you need to quickly jump to another one.[/sp]
I dunno, I just think it'd be really cool.
