Bioshock: Infinite
pyrosheep:
OK I've finished it. Amazing story telling, like that was such an amazing story. Walking around Colombia just the smallest things amazed me. Characters were great too, almost up their with Far Cry 3. The ending was definitely my favorite in any game. That was just so amazing.
Tiger Guy:
Just got done with it.
To me, it's a generic shooter with a cool atmosphere. A poor man's Half-Life 2
Elizabeth is a okay partner, even though they could've made her more valuable (not make her invincible, let her be able to shoot weapons.) I feel like she was a Disney princess reject with her looks and the fact that she was locked in a tower for most of her life.
I wish Booker had more of a back story, other than that he fought at Wounded Knee and got an gambling addiction that forced him to sell his daughter. There really wasn't much more to him, which is odd for an protagonist.
The enemies are somewhat easy to kill (I played on medium), until the end where the skill level rapidly shoots up. The outdoor fights were better than the indoor fights because the indoor fights had similar rooms almost everytime.
While some people praise the ending for being unique, I find it as a shallow, rushed 2deep4u ending. Irrational Games could've and should've made the ending make more sense. They'll probably fix it with the DLC's they'll be releasing. It's about as frustrating as the original Fallout 3 ending (Fallout 3's ending didn't have LODS OF TWISTS though.) It's babbys first attempt at a 2deep4u ending.
The game isn't worth buying right now, since it's really short (I beat it in around 9 hours.) If you REALLY want to buy the game, you should wait until there is a steam sale for it. It sure as hell isn't worth 60 dollars.
If I had to rate it, I'd give it a 6.5/10. It's not a bad game, but it's ludicrous to call it GOTY or give it a 10/10. You guy's should not trust metacritic, or any major gaming site for reviews anyway.
Alphaggot:
That twist at the end was really fucked up.

I bought it knowing that the gameplay wasn't going to be amazing, really only buying it because I knew that the story telling in the other Bioshocks was very impressive. I still don't think that gameplay was anything special, but the atmosphere and Colombia and how the story was told is why I really like it. I'm replaying it now and I'm just noticing the little things that hint to the ending.
