I really liked 2.  Exploring Columbia for the first time is similar to exploring Rapture for the first time (though I preferred Rapture) which is something 2 can't/doesn't do.  Don't expect that a return to Rapture will be the same as exploring it again for the first time, and I think you would enjoy 2 just fine.  It is all new parts of Rapture, however, and it's 10 years later, so there are differences.  2 Definitely has highlights as well, that outshine portions of the Irrational games.

If it's a choice betwixt playing 1 again and playing 2, I would recommend playing 2.

In fact, (and I realize I might get run out of town on a sky-rail for saying this) I think the combat/gameplay was best in 2.

So there.

Hmmm... Might have to go play it then, maybe.

So, I sat down to pen Bioshock 3. Remember my whole storyline about a group breaking off and making a new civilization on an island? Yeah, I totally sat down to write that in earnest. Spent a bit of time making an outline, wrote a few pages, somewhere in there logged onto OT.com and read Xhonzi post something about being too busy for the site and going away... And then I thought, wait a minute? What is the point? And I stopped writing it.

Okay, so, you were the catalyst that made me realize it was a pointless thing to write, but I didn't decide it was pointless only because you were gone, I just realized it was all around pointless in general.

Too bad though, it would have been amazing! But no, you had to go and leave the forum. Jerk.

No! Don't stop writing! If there's a story you want to tell, write it!
