The Lamer Gamer

Been trudging through Bioshock 2, and in one of the random corners of a level that I’ve explored, I found this:

Schrodinger’s Cat, no?  I laughed a bunch when I found this after melting a patch of ice in the frozen gallery in Dionysius Park.  Since there’s no box, I think it’s pretty clear that this cat is dead, but you never know.  Anyway, great Easter Egg.

Bioshock 2 is surprising me bit by bit.  The main game is more of the same, the story is new of course, but most of the enemies are the same, the weapons are essentially the same (just updates of the originals) and rapture, looks about the same.  I’m having fun with it, though I’m having trouble keeping track of some of the characters.  I think it supposed to be obvious that you are this guy who’s daughter was kidnapped and turned into Little Sister, and you yourself turned into a Big Daddy, but I’m rather confused.  Oh well, I’m almost done, and it’ll be sorted out by then I hope.

Multiplayer is what’s actually surprising.  It’s obviously not MW2 or anything of that ilk, but a decent set of derivative game types with the spin of Bioshock’s Plasmid and Tonics + weapon upgrades.  Doubtful that I’d want to keep the game just for that, but it’s a nice diversion after  some of the more tedious collecting of things (all Little Sisters, audio diaries) in single player.
