No. 181910
As long as this thread is being bumped, I'll report this here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=690065 >In August, the Games For Windows LIVE service marketplace closed and some of you wondered what would happen to BioShock 2 on PC. We remain committed to supporting BioShock 2 on PC and are excited to announce that starting today the game is available via Steam. Not only that, but the Steam version of BioShock 2 includes all available multiplayer downloadable content, as well as the single player “Protector Trials” DLC, for $19.99!
>If you have already purchased BioShock 2 through a different digital partner, we’ve got you covered. Simply take the same game activation key you already own and “activate” it within Steam.
I will add that when I tried to activate my key on Steam, it was initially rejected because there was a space on the front. So if you copy and paste (say, from Amazon, where I bought my digital copy), looking out for errant spaces, because Steam haet Trim().
>>181907 Ehhhhh from what you've posted it sounds like he's trying to get views by being 5edgy7me. A large part of this is because, from what you posted, it seems his focus is 100% on the story: >It’s a craven, heartless game of false moral equivalencies that uses the suffering of oppressed people as window dressing, as theme, while it explores its own cold metaphysical conceits. Which might be okay, if this was a book or even a movie. (And that's been the theme for the entire series, so I hope he makes a mention of hating BS1/2 just as much.)
>We should be asking whether it deserves a 2 or a 10. And this part is just wrong to me. A proper game review takes into account all parts of a game: Graphics, story, gameplay, controls. Even if he is right and the story/setting is horrible, the gameplay is very solid, if safe, and the graphics are great, so it's not even in the realm of a 2/10. That kind of score is reserved for games that are incredibly broken or offensive, like Big Rigs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Rigs:_Over_the_Road_Racing
I might give a read later, but I expect nothing worthwhile.
