so i've noticed a few requests on the forums for bioshock 2 cheats, so i figured i'd post some that i found on the 2k forums here. some seem to work and others dont (mainly the drill tonics) but not sure why. i haven't tested them all, but if anyone knows the correct id's for the plasmids, tonics, etc i encourage you to post them. for any of these cheats you have to bind them to a key, as there is no in-game console. to do this...
find the "user.ini" file located at
//windows 7//
C:\Users\@USERNAME@\AppData\Roaming\Bioshock2\
//windows xp//
C:\Documents and Settings\@Username@\Application Data\Bioshock 2\
find the key bindings under the [default] heading and bind they key. should look something like this:
NumPad2=GiveItem ShockGame.PhysicalGeneticSlotUpgrade
the example given here opens up one of your gene tonic slots. soooooooo here we go
{general}
these are all over the place but i figured i'd toss them in anyway.
God - Invincibility
Fly - Allows you to fly around
Walk - Disables fly and ghost mode
Ghost - Allows you to move through solid objects
Suicide - Kills your character
Killpawns - Kills all enemy on the level
ToggleshowAIs - Toggles the presence of enemy On/Off
Givehealth - Refills your Health bar
Givebioammo - Refills your Eve bar
IGBigbucks - Gives you $500
HideHUD - Disables the on-screen HUD elements
ShowHUD - Enables the on-screen HUD elements
ToggleHUD - Toggles the on-screen HUD elements On/Off
Slomo - Slows everything down
Freezeframe - Freezes the game
Shot - Takes a screenshot in BMP format and places it in the same folder as BioShock.ini
Togglesoundeffects - Turns sound effects (but not music or ambient sounds) On/Off
SetFOV [degrees] - Sets your Field of View to the specified degrees, e.g. SetFOV 90
ResetFOV - Resets Field of View to default
Use all these ID's prefaced by "GiveItem" so...
GiveItem <count><item ID>

{Research}
Any of these max out your research on a given enemy, giving you whatever damage bonuses, tonics or abilities it would normally give if you had researched to full. Good way to get drill dash early. These all work i believe.
