Is anyone else playing through with the drill-only tonic? Coupling that with some of the more hard-core plasmids (namely freeze) makes it quite fun and pretty easy to kill the Big Daddies, Sisters and Alpha's. The freeze plasmid helps with gathering research too.

Finally got round to completing this, finished a min ago with a nice ending, I saved all lil sisters but harvested with all of them as well. Also saved everyone I had the chance to so got the saviour achievement also got the 100 diaries one as well, bit shocked at that as I swore I missed a couple, but not bad for a first playthrough.
Most of the achievements left are for multiplayer, which I can't be bothered with. As a game in a whole, not bad, bit bland and environments had nothing new. I still prefer the 1st without question

Finished this tonight and very much enjoyed it. As good as the first? Not quite but some very nice but subtle differences that made it enjoyable. Missed the Researcher achievement because I missed the smallest amount of research possible on the Big Daddies, grrr! Will play through it again but like the first one I'll wait a few months before doing so.
I read somewhere that the reason some parts have really bad graphics is because they increased the number of mobs and how rapidly they spawn or something along those lines.. I'll link if I can find it again.
And I guess I was lucky, I got the master gatherer trophy in Dyonisus Park after rescuing my first sister there.
^^ Great news. Can't wait.
Today I completed it again for the second time, this time round killing/harvesting everything one in sight!
I have to say, I really enjoyed the second play through. There were a couple of rooms I missed first time around. I preferred the darker ending.
I've been playing mutliplayer quite a bit, level 17 now.

Well I managed to fix the calibrated monitors losing LUT issue I mentioned before without any help from 2kGames...
It meant ditching my software's LUT loader and using the Windows 7 loader built into Windows. I actually did this change due to upgrading software but in the process realised it might solve the Bioshock 2 problem too which it did so no more restarts needed!

When using an old Black Light on the posters that came with the CE version of the game. I would try it on mine but dont have a black light

That last one is a bit bloody creepy.
Make sure if possible to have everything reasearched before leaving fontaina. Save every 20 minutes with a complete new save. Get as many diaries as you can using a guide because once you hit 100 you can forget about the rest meaning the game goes much faster.
You stop having to look everywhere.

I think the Audio Diary's are great, I listened to every single one that I found and there are literally loads in the last level
All of Fontaine's are especially epic but "Goodbye to Fontaine" is without doubt the best
Sweet cheers.
I was going to find them all on Bioshock 1 at the end, but only realised that I had only got 2 of the 3 that you can't get later to late into my playthrough.
Can you go back in this one like in Bioshock 1 (bar the 3 I mentioned).
Definately going to do it on hard, BS1 was too easy once you had ranked up a bit.

There is a trophy/achievement for playing without them.
