I read in another review that the plasmids were a waste of time, and that they could have been more original and powerful.

Overall, I think I really want this game and it's going on my "Top ## Reasons as to why I should get a new PC"

For the most part they are. Sometimes it's fun to set things on fire or freeze things for a change but the only two you consistently use are Telekinesis and Electric Bolt. I use Swarm of Bees, Enrage, and Big Daddy Help (forget the name) occasionally when I think I might need the help but I never even used the majority of the plasmids more than twice.

Now that being said, that doesn't mean they are automatically worthless. I could have just not found the way to effectively use them and that's why I didn't bother but for the most part you can make it through the game with little trouble with just Telekinesis and Electro Bolt (besides points where you have to use other certain plasmids for story or puzzle purposes).
