10 Video Game DLC Releases That Were Better Than The Original
1. BioShock 2: Minerva's Den
In an earlier article, I lamented the fact that so few people gave Bioshock 2 a chance. To be honest, a big part of the reason why that's such a shame is that it means few people ever played its DLC add-on, Minerva's Den.
Just as in BioShock 2, Minerva's Den has you step into the role of a Big Daddy. This time, you are tasked with entering the titular area of Rapture and stealing code from a man called The Thinker. What follows is quite simply one of the greatest stories in gaming history. Much like the original BioShock, Minerva's Den speaks deeply on subject matter like religious idealism and human value. Unlike BioShock, Minerva's Den doesn't fall apart at the end and actually delivers a finale worthy of the ideas it poses along the way.
The BioShock series has long been about atmosphere and story above action, and so far as those elements go, Minveva's Den may just be the franchise's greatest outing.
