Schrodinger the Cat
I stand corrected – there IS a named cat in Bioshock 2. I was scavenging in the frozen Imago gallery, melting things – as you will when you’re scavenging, and I melted a pile of ice to discover another Bioshock cat. This one was upright, not tipped over. Like a…
Cats in Minerva’s Den
The mystery of Bioshock’s cats deepens…. Okay, if you follow this blog, you know that there is one specific dead cat populating both the original Bioshock and Bioshock 2. No dogs, no other cats. Just one black & white kitty who can be discovered in corners all over Rapture. And…
Bioshock Cats UPDATE
For all of you who have wondered about the prevalence of dead cats – or rather, one dead cat in particular – in Bioshock, the mystery continues…. Remember my blog post about this cat in original Bioshock? Well, the same cat appears in Bioshock 2. And this time, I have…
We all live in a … underwater city that’s not actually yellow
Welcome to Rapture, the underwater city where Bioshock and Bioshock 2 are set. Although this is one of those Utopias Gone Very, Very Wrong, let’s pretend for a moment that Rapture actually turned out okay. It’s beautiful, little bathyspheres float you around to different areas, there’s lots of lights and…

Original Fallout
PC gaming is a completely different beast when you’re used to PS3 gaming. I am currently playing the original Fallout on Steam. And I must admit, I was lost at the beginning. The concept of Taking Turns during battle eluded me. (“Why can’t I just kill this rat?”) I also didn’t…
Why Het Romance Is Boring
I’ve got a theory about this. I know a lot of female readers who have switched to male/male romance, not just because two hot men are better than one, but because they’re finding het (male/female) romance boring. Not that the plots are slow or the same or whatnot, just that they…
Bioshock Dead Cats
I’m playing Bioshock (the first one) on my PS3. I’m trotting around. Shooting stuff. Evolving. Y’know how it is. And I notice there are a lot of dead cats strewn about the place. Not in piles or anything. And not gory, either. In fact, unlike the people, they look completely…
