I'm getting close to finishing my first playthrough in BioShock. On my next playthrough I'm going for the achievements but this one really scares me. There are SOOOO many diaries in this game that I doubt I'll find every one. Does anyone here have this achievement? I'll need all the tips/help I can get...

You know if you save the game right before you enter the next area for the final fight and ending, you can go back and explore all the previous areas of Rapture and Splicers don't attack you. Thats how you get achievements that you missed easily, i came close to getting the Historian achievement but forgot all about it. Im surprised your playing BioShock now, i thought you did ages ago when it was new.

Ok cool, anyway yeah save it before the last fight..you'll know because it would say to go up and confront...make a save there and after finishing the game your free to explore and get achievements without Splicers annoying you.

Alright I'll be sure to do that.

There are only 2 diaries that you HAVE to get the first time you're in that area... all the rest you can come back to once you've "changed your costume". It's a really easy achievement to get. You won't have any problems.
