It has glitches where the tape recorders will wind up playing even when I don't prompt them to, as well as some strange plot holes.

The gold tape players are major plot points and play automatically.

And no matter if you picked up your last tape 2 seconds ago or ten minutes ago, holding down A will start playing the last one picked up. The game isn't bugged.

And what plot holes? After all, you just admitted to only being 90% of the way through the story.

 

I've encountered the issue during times when I'm prompted to hold A to turn a wheel, but it also WILL happen at random when I'm not pressing the A button at all. This happened many times while I was just walking from one place to another: the last tape recording I heard will just suddenly start playing.

As for plot holes... SPOILER WARNING BELOW:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can anyone explain to me why I need a Big Daddy costume to attract a little sister who is free of the parasite and who, earlier in the game, had to have been in a room full of little girls who were happy to see me and not afraid of me?

The ending was excellent, though.

Also, in fairness, people should probably know that this game is heavily inspired by Deus Ex (the first one, not the craptacular sequel), including the hacking, the different ammo types, the personal enhancement abilities, and the fact that you face a madman who has done some serious "upgrading" to himself.
