i didnt mind playing as a Big Daddy for a little while in the first game,but fuck not all the way through it...just his heavy footsteps will drive me mad

And I really enjoy how everybody assumes that the Big Daddy in this game will control like the sequence in the first game.
While we're at it, let's complain about the final boss fight that we know nothing about.

I really want Bioshock 2 to take all the things I hated about the original and fix them, but instead I think it's going to take all the things I liked about the original and break them. Oh well.

They're also saying that while the Little Sister is harvesting Adam, she'll be attacked by Splicers and you have to protect her.
Also Vita-chambers are supposed to be back (yay or nay?) and that one of the bosses is one of the Little Sisters left behind from the first game...
Nice stuff!

Hmm...it better not be one of those escort and protect kinda games...I hate those but I doubt it. I have every confidence that Bioshock 2 will be just as good as the first one...

if you're getting possibly multiple little sisters, then they must be likely to die, or some other reason, i can't imagine you having a team of them in this sort of game, it's not like the demons in Darkness.. or maybe they will be.. i.e. they hide in their holes and you can summon different types of little sisters, they climb out do what you want (i.e. harvest adam or what not, hopefully something more interesting too) you protect them, and then back in the hole they go... you possibly have to fight big daddys in each area to secure a little sister(or different types) for that area... I'm hoping other interesting dynamic mini bosses other than just big daddys... or at least more imagination with the new big daddys

I find that a lot of people are against it as they think it "dumbs down" the game...
@NeVeRMoRe666: Interestingly enough, that sort of gameplay happened in Bioshock 1 no? When Jack dressed as a Big Daddy...Though I doubt the whole game's going to be like it.
@Michael McWhertor: Haha! I thought so! Anyhoo, thanks for the acknowledgment nonetheless... =D
@Ehardergardens: I think so as well. I highly doubt they'd cripple the game with a simple gameplay design flaw. What I personally want are more Splicer variants. Not just in abilities but also in skins and dialogue.

I'm guessing it's as easy as taking them to one of those ports that they go in and out of in the first game.

you know? where he says he is "destined for great things" or something like that.
though other than that he was a mute.

Pass.

Personally....I'll be spamming the "Harvest" button.

Could be very interesting indeed. As long as you're not lumbering along at like 2 miles an hour all the time, that wouldn't be very fun.
Co-op (if that part is still true) just became much more interesting. Second player controls a little sister perhaps? Could be fun, decoys and distractions. If anyone played Ico in two-player they can attest to how much fun having someone controlling a weaker (/defenceless) character can actually be.

And playing as big dady isn't anythng new-we already did this at the end of first game. No innovation, but hell, I like to be a big daddy :D

"Don't be a slowpoke, Mr. B. Angels don't wait for slowpokes."
"C'mon, Mr. B! I can hear an angel, floating in the sky!"

That truly qualifies as a spoiler. Oh well, I am sure I/we would have all found out before putting the disc in the tray anyway.

I agree with you 100%, and my interest in the game is severely diminished by this news. It also sounds like it has very little to do with the first game other than coopting popularity of the previous game.
The 'Big Sister' is jumping the shark, for sure.
