Playstation: The Official Magazine (US)If you're still wondering if BioShock 2 is better than the original as you enter the final level, by the time you beat it, you'll have no doubt. This is one of the best games you'll ever play. [Mar 2010, p.62]

It's definitely a great game and will likely be on top ten lists at the end of the year. It's just not a perfect 10.
