Trailers: BioShock 2 “Protector Trials” trailer

If anybody is on the fence about whether or not to spend the $5 for this new DLC, then this trailer will probably assist your decision. For me, watching this just makes me lament my experience with BioShock 2. The gun-play is clearly superior to the first game’s, but it just lacks all the heart and soul of that original masterpiece. Why won’t 2K smarten up and take the core ideals of a BioShock experience and put them in a different universe? That series doesn’t need direct sequels, but spiritual sequels could thrive. It’s not like it’s some radical idea that would risk losing sales. A little franchise by the name of Final Fantasy doth proveth that.

In the department of news we don’t care about this week, 2K games has announced the $5 “Protector Trials” DLC for the commercially successful BioShock 2. The pack tasks players with escorting Little Sisters through six “new” maps inspired by locations from the single-player campaign.

So, yeah…is 2K just trying to underline the fact that they never got what BioShock was about to begin with? I can’t wait to see what new IP Ken Levine and Irrational Games are working on right now. Maybe we’ll get another legendary experience that will eventually be monetized into an uninspired franchise getting by on name recognition alone.
