Ah, that's too bad. I liked the first one and was wondering if the second was worth picking up.

I finished off Portal 2 and Bioshock 2 last weekend. Bioshock 2 got very poor in the middle of the story (around Amusements), but picked up at Persephone. I just hated Alpha series Big Daddies. They were just annoying and attacked enforce. I would have liked to see more Bouncers personally. Honestly, I was surprised how much I used the rivet gun, but once I hit Persephone I equipped drill specialist, summoned my two bots, and went hogwild with lighting and the purple summon.

Portal 2 just had me laughing once you meet Cave Johnson. He is currently three of my friends contact IDs on my phone. The Mantis Men line makes me laugh every time. I did not think I could like the humor in a game more than the first but the: All American, throw science to the wind, screw em all Im Cave Johnson'ness of the Cave Johnson made me laugh so hard. I am in the minority of disliking the cores, but I enjoyed everything else so much it was ok. But now I have trouble watching the Closure since Cave Johnson = Chief Pope. Wheatley is the newspaper writer from Hot Fuzz, but I dont think Ill have trouble with that one. And Wheatley cubes are both awesome and annoying. They caused me to die a couple times...

Portal 2 was just a solid game all around. Bioshock 2 was worth the $5 I paid for it but I would have been disappointed if I paid full price. I am tempted to buy Minerva's Den since that is supposed to be better than BS2, but its low on my list.

Let us know what you think. The first game had some nice moments, despite being subpar overall.

actually i skipped the first one since i didn't want to use the wiimote as the controller. this one supported the classic controller pro which favors me. but so far so good.

Hey, how's the framerate on that one - is it pretty smooth? The only fps I have on the Wii other than Metroid Prime Trilogy is Red Steel 2 and that game (despite its nice graphics) gives me some serious motion sickness. :|

Yeah, but I can't take the PC with me while commuting and since my old DS broke my flashcard can only run GBA roms and not more advanced projets (Like ports of Doom).

I played online for the Conduit 2, took around 15 minutes of dropping out to actually connect to a game, I found myself spawning under the level and various bugs like that, you also walk overtly slow.

Terrible online game.

i tried the multiplayer online game and i didn't like it at all. plus it seems like we can only play online with other people from our region only :? tried to play with Saki (from Germany) and both of us were unable to save our friend code (it just give us an error). i guess i'll stick to story mode. at least that's seems to work fine. after i'm done with this game i'm going back to Goldeneye multiplayer instead of this one.
