A handy item - Melee Weapon - You have in BioShock 1 ( Remember the first "One-Two Punch" - Plasmid then Wrench Combination )

We coulda used a wrench upgrade (another thing to find). For the MMORPG, they could have MORE damage, and NOW with bone crunching, blood spraying effects !!!

A Big Daddy you would NOT want to face.
HELL, instead of that stupid 'Air Grabber' (( What WERE they Smoking ?? )), You could hang onto those 'Pneumo Lines' just as easily with your trusty Wrench ...

The Legendary Weapon :
The 14-inch 'Monkey' pipe-wrench modified to be the "Mark 3 Whack-O-Matic" was specially produced during the %27civil war%27, with its comfortable sure-stick grip and dual beveled bone crushing serrations. Thuggish Splicers who didn't have this little beauty felt like second-class citizens amongst their Splicer community peers.
Solid drop-forged metal. Good Lead-based Red glossy paint - guaranteed bloodstain corrosion proof.
It doesn't quite glow blue when Splicers are around ...
Wrench 'Buffs' keep their's in mint condition, squirreled away in safe places in the original box ( lest they loose their collectors value ... )

BTW, "The Wrench" is also a TOOL which can be used to loosen/tighten big Bolts and Nuts on various machinery/structures.

Wrench Tech :
BS1 - Why did we not have a Tech Upgrade for the good ole wrench. Sure, we had Tonics and such, but no technological upgrade ?? :
* Turn it into one of those big 'whack-a-mole' mallets.
* Golf Club to be a bit more upscale
* The MMORPG would have a wider range of melee type weapons ( short of killing the Splicer, any damage you do can be fixed up (eventually) at "The Clinic" ... )

The Chain Wrench :
The old BS1 Wrench wasn't good enough for you ?? Sure they coulda had more 'gibs' ( game gibblets props ) flying ...
Wrench with "Chain Saw Action" for those flesh ripping/blood splashing effects now a required part of the BioShock game these days ... Big Daddies no doubt had power wrenches to assist in their repair/maintenance work.
Ditch those stupid Skyhook and Air Grabber BS things and have a Properly designed weapon, please. You can backhand swing at the Perp after the first whack ( just try that with a Skyhook ... )
( Note - the gamemakers DID miss RATHER EASY opportunities with a 'Wrench Bash' action to have more than just that first obstacle to use it on. ALSO Come to think of it, of having several more lock-jammed doors to force use of Electro-Bolt on, too. )

Holding a Wrench became a 'Fashion Statement' ... Briefly :
There were LOTS of stupid 'fads' in Rapture over the years ( The 'Funny Arrow Through the Head' was particularly of short duration after the many inadvertent eye injuries it caused ).
