Good Ending/Bad Ending

Hint by Spray Guard on September 11, 2007  |  report this hint

There are two possible endings for BioShock that depend on how you treated little sisters throughout the game. If you choose to "harvest" more than one little sister, you will get the bad BioShock ending. If, however, you "harvest" no more than one little sister but "rescue" the others, you will get the good BioShock ending.

Cohens Masterpiece!

Hint by abfirstr8 on November 06, 2007  |  report this hint

Instead of killing Cohen once you meet him dont hurt him or anything. If you keep him alive you get to go to his apartment in Olympus Heights it will also give you a achievment I believe. But if you really want to kill them then kill him and take a pic of his dead body for a achievment for 10 points!

Miss something?

Hint by SuperFLYLegend on November 30, 2007  |  report this hint

Miss something on your first playthrough? The best way to go back and get what you missed is to wait until right before you go in the elevator to fight Fontaine and save. Once you kill him and the game ends, reload that save. You'll still be in your Big Daddy suit and take a lot less damage. It's a lot easier to go back through if you missed something.

Weapon Upgrade Station locations

Hint by okidoki on December 11, 2007  |  report this hint

1: In Peach Wilkins' hideout (Neptune's Bounty), bottom floor. As soon as you come downstairs it is directly in front of you.

2: On the way to Farmer's Market in Arcadia, the station is located to the left after you go up the first stairs coming from Tree Farm.

3: The Winery's basement in Farmer's Market. There is a flooded area with one of them attached to the wall. It is in front of you when you come down the stairs; just keep going forward.

4: In Fort Frolic, from the Atrium bottom floor, go towards the bathrooms. Then, move right and follow the path until you see some small stairs to your right leading up to a door. Go inside then go down into the basement. The basement is filled with cigars and the like. The upgrade station is on the wall.

5: Go to Poseidon Plaza in Fort Frolic. Go to the other end of the bottom floor (the opposite end of where you enter). Go into Sinclair Spirits (the room that has a corpse on a sort of "altar"). In the basement of this store is the station.

6: In Hephaestus Core Room, go down to the bottom floor and run around (literary). Eventually you will see it attached to the wall.

7: In Hephaestus, Kyburz's office. It is attached to the left wall (back turned to the entrance) in the rear of the room.

8: At the bottom floor of the Mercury Suites area, on the back of the center pillar.

9: In Sander Cohen's secret room, in the Olympus Heights' Mercury Suites area.

10: Go to Atlas' Headquarters in Apollo Square (Fontaine's Home For The Poor area). It is located on the fourth floor. Go down the stairs in the room and look to the right. The station will be in front of you.

11: When you enter Point Prometheus and chase Fontaine, eventually you will end up in a little square and Fontaine will go behind a locked Museum door. At the opposite end of this square (from where you came) is a dead Big Daddy. Next to it is the upgrade.

12: In the Voice changing labs in Point Prometheus, one of the labs has it.

Hard mode

Hint by sn1pe_warman on July 17, 2008  |  report this hint

While playing on hard this game can get quite difficult. I recommend saving all your money for health packs and ammo. You will be using them alot. Try to stay away from all the plasmids you won't be using unless your swimming in adam. If you keep these tips in mind you will fly threw the flaming ring of death and nab that achievement easy!

Dont Harvest

Hint by JdubbFoLyfe on January 09, 2008  |  report this hint

Unlockable: Good Ending / Bad Ending
There are two possible endings for BioShock that depend on how you treated little sisters throughout the game. If you choose to "harvest" more than one little sister, you will get the bad BioShock ending. If, however, you "harvest" no more than one little sister but "rescue" the others, you will get the good BioShock ending.
Hint: Big Daddy Battle
In order to do this, you need the Hypnotize Big Daddy Plasmid and the Natural Camouflage Tonic. All you have to do is use the Hypnotize Big Daddy Plasmid on a Big Daddy so that he thinks you're a Little Sister and protects you. Now here's the fun part - simply find and attack another Big Daddy and your Big Daddy will attack it to protect you.

Hint: Sander Cohen
About halfway through the game, you meet Sander Cohen, this crazy artist dude. When you finish the level, you can just leave him or kill him. If you kill him at that point, you can't get one of the Achievements "Find Cohen's Room." A while later you will stumble onto Cohen's apartment. If he's alive, two Splicers will be dancing in the main room, with Cohen watching from his locked private room. Kill the Splicers and then Cohen comes out to fight you, thus unlocking the door and allowing you to earn the Achievement.

Hint: Big Daddy Kills
When fighting a Big Daddy, use armor-piercing rounds, as they will deal considerable damage compared to regular rounds.

big daddies

Hint by truepatriot6 on March 26, 2008  |  report this hint

big daddies can be difficult to beat. they are very prtective of their little sisters. the best way to take them down is from a distance. they do a lot of damage so try not to get too close. they don't replenish health so take them out a little at a time.
