The main problem, without spoiling anything, is that Bioshock 2 is.. welll.... 1)"Whoa. what an intro!" 2)"Well that's cool!" 3)"Wait that's it?"

The little touches are so cool. When she pulled the "Ha Ha! Gotcha!", i laughed. She reminds me of people i know. That's almost creepy.
Of course the fanboys of the net are watching her Lara Croft side (that's why i hate mods. I know they're cool, but nude pics of video game characters are something that lowers the public opinion about gaming). But she's an AI wonder.
It's kinda weird how Valve, that has created two of the most compelling viurtual characters ever (Alyx and GlaDOS), made a funny but paper thin game like L4D. I think that's because it's mostly a multiplayer game, and i havent played in depth yet, but it seemed so "light" in comparison to their standards.
That said, i'm postponing the moment i'll play HL2:ep2 because i know that there wont be anything for at least a couple of years (And that's a douche move from Valve, no matter how you justify it)
Then again we live in a world where Ragnar Tornquist has left us without April Ryan (The other greatest female character of gaming history). But also a world where Guybrush Threepwood is alive and well.
