I honestly didn't like Bioshock 1 that much though. It had great art direction and a good story but it was too easy, too linear and the weapons weren't satisfying.
Can anyone tell me if Bioshock 2 is just more of the same?
I'm considering getting Bioshock 2.

More or less, it is. If you didn't like the first game, you won't like this one.

Thanks for letting me know.
It's too bad. I would've loved Bioshock if they just tweaked a few things.

You won't like Bioshock 2 at all, it's even more linear

I loved BS1 a lot...but make no mistake, it's culture shock after playing games such as ME2 and DA:O. Completely scripted shooters.
BS1 was awesome in twisting and turning some aspects of the shooter genre. I loved it for its plot and the richness of the characters. Some "levels" (particularly the one with a mad director who used the main character to kill off 4 of his rivals and film their corpses) were as genious as they were freaky and ironic: truly brilliant game-making.
That said, I'm plodding through BS2 which apparently doesn't really hit its own stride until mid-game. After getting sucked into plot points with ME2 and DA:O from the get-go, and with graphics hardly revised since the original (separated by more time between the sequel and the original than ME1 and ME2), it's not captivated me yet.
As FPS goes, BS1 and HL2 are superlative examples of the genre for PC. My $0.02.

I haven't made it that far yet (maybe 8 hours in, at an average pace) but unfortunately it feels like they did the bare minimum that they had to for BS2. BS1 was a great game, and if you liked that, you'll like this two, but the only thing that is really new here is a few different weapons, a few new enemies, and a storyline that takes the story from the first and swaps out the anarcho-capitalist ideas of the first for communistic ones.
It also feels a bit more action-packed, but unlike ME2, they took no steps to tighten the shooting controls, so this is ultimately to the game's detriment rather than its benefit. This also makes the multiplayer aspect not worth mentioning, despite all of the promise it would have otherwise had.
