I actually wish they did the opposite and Dropped the Bioshock name and went with something else to show that this is really only a spiritual sequel to Bioshock in the same way Bioshock was a spiritual sequel to Systemshock.

No, everybody else thinks Bioshock 2 was awesome.

BS2 was a piece of shit cash grab that at best added absolutely nothing to the series, and by association tarnished the memory of the first game at worst.

Bioshock 2 wasn't a bad game at all, it was basically just Bioshock 1 again with a more mediocre story. There's no way anyone should be calling it a bad game.

If Fitzgerald wrote a Great Gatsby 2 that was just like the first one but not quite as good, it would be bad.

Bioshock 2 has good combat, gameplay mechanics, and atmosphere? Well yeah, because they just copy-pasted it from the first game. Rehashing stuff and presenting it to consumers as the hot new thing is nothing new, but the gaming community is oddly reticent to call out companies who do it. When Modern Warfare 14 and The Legend of Zelda: The Gilded ****** comes out in 10 years reviewers will still be tossing them 9/10s.
