A definite improvement, but feels bland and samey by the end.

PROS: -Akimbo-style (left hand plasmid, right hand weapon) action, not to mention that you may reload one while firing (or reloading) the other, and vice-versa. -More enemy types. -A few problems that plagued the first game have been fixed. -Better graphics cues (you won't miss dropped weapons and objects so easily). -A lot of things look nicer than in the first game. CONS: -Feels bland and samey by the end. Experimenting with different plasmids is hampered by the lack of opportunities to gather EVE. -You move slowly as a result of your suit, however you are only marginally tougher at the beginning of the game. -Loads of copy-pasted content from Bioshock. -"Morality"-based choices feel cliched and almost pointless, as utilizing a Little Sister for awhile pays off much more than harvesting at any time. -Cheesy ending (if you were nice). I won't spoil it, but it ends with a cutscene either way.
