To sum this up, Razors initial release was non-retail.  I have also heard reports that people who downloaded the original have been able to play to the end.  In that case, if you already have the other version there is little reason to download another 8gb.  For those that don’t have it, this is the properly cracked retail release.

02/2010: RELEASE.DATE .. PROTECTION: Securom
1: DISC(S) .. GAME.TYPE: FPS

Note:

Razor released this game without a launcher initially, and then released a
launcher which was hacked together using an old version of the Securom
launcher and the icon for Bioshock 2. Their launcher is from another game
Besides potentially causing trouble, it is also not very retail of them

Proof:

Version number of RZR Bioshock2Launcher.exe: 0.1.0.0
Version number of our Bioshock2Launcher.exe: 0.1.0.8

Additionally we cracked the launcher for both SP and MP, because they are
not identical launchers

Description:
Follow-up to BioShock, 2K Games’ critically acclaimed and commercially successful 2007 release, BioShock 2 is a first-person shooter set in the fictional underwater city of Rapture. As in the original game, BioShock 2 features a blend of fast-paced action, exploration and puzzle-solving as players follow varying paths through the overarching storyline based on the decisions that they are forced to make at various points in the game. In addition to a further fleshing out of the franchise’s popular storyline, players can look forward to new characters, game mechanics, weapons, locations and a series first, multiplayer game options.

Set approximately 10 years after the events of the original BioShock, the halls of Rapture once again echo with sins of the past.

Players will need to use all the elements of the BioShock toolset to survive, as the full depth of the BioShock experience is refined and transformed into a unique multiplayer
experience that can only be found in Rapture
