BioShock gets update and new plasmid DLC

Hey, hey! The BioShock update and downloadable content that was announced a few days back has just been released early this morning making your Rapture experience all the better. BioShock's Cult of Rapture outlined what's included in the title update which includes a widescreen FOV fix, various bug squashes and a solution to the nasty caching problem. They also confirmed that the free DLC includes a disable Vita Chambers option, a 100 point "Brass Balls" achievement and four brand new plasmids (Machine Buster 1 & 2, Vending Expert 1 & 2, Sonic Boom 1 & 2 and EVE Saver). Pop in BioShock, get your update, download the DLC and re-visit Rapture with your new sonic booming abilities. Boom, boom!

[Thanks, dave]

Agreed.

But I expect nothing less from the Me Only But Make it Good and Free generation that seems to permeate the gaming culture.

Personally, I was waiting until just about now to go do my replay of Bioshock, and this extra content is the icing on the cake. No... wait. That was another game that had cake.

Why is everyone complaining? I'm happy they worked on this title and fixed bugs. It's free too.

Good thing I had so many games on my "to play" list. I get to play BioShock for the first time with out glitches and new plasmid/tonics!

For those that are bitchin' - Its fucking free DLC and that's NEVER a bad thing.

Brass Balls!!! I've got 'em! To get the achievement you don't have to turn the vita chambers off. All you have to do is beat the game on hard without using them. I have been trying to figure out what the 51st achievement was for weeks nows. I beat the game on hard without dying about a week ago. After I downloaded the update, I just loaded my game to the begining of the fight with Fontaine. After I beat him I got the achievement. Check out my gamer tag whitelightnin92 and see for yourself.
