For me Bioshock WAS the story, the gameplay was merely a drive to carry the fantastic presentation along.
This. I didn't play Bioshock 1 because I like FPSes; frankly they make me nauseous. Given that the reviews I've read have stated that the story is sacrificed to make it a stronger FPS, I think I won't bother.

Also, I've heard that there are a lot more enemies and the fights are a lot more frantic. What I liked about the original was that the enemies were intermittent and I could mostly fight in a melee style using plasmids and the wrench. So that's another point against.
