^ You got three days free to listen to all of it? ;P

Seriously thats kind of an impossible task, to list every single little detail. There are literally thousands of things from major design...

System Shock 2 was a good blend of FPS and RPG gameplay. My first time playing, I was a total newb (or casual gamer if you like) and while it was a little intimidating, it was also like nothing I had...

I'm on another playthrough of SS2 right now, and its reminding me just how far Infinite has veered off course. Sure the technical aspects look like melted fudge, but it still tastes great. The...

The origin declassified trailer looks cool, which I was not expecting since most of every other AAA I have played recently has felt like a dumbed down for the masses, homogenised CoD clone.

This...

Sorry wrong thread. DOH!

More like the greatest disappointment.

As i've said a hundreds times already, doesn't mean I think the game is bad, its a good game, but SS2, BS1 and BS2 deliver upon every element of their...

1st Place - SHODAN from System Shock 1 and 2, which should be in the poll. ;P

Second up i'll have to agree with texas above ^. Fontaine is the main antagonist of BS1, and was very memorable.

I...

Infinite's hype didn't really effect me too much, since my pre-release excitement for Infinite was based on IG's older games, BioShock 1 and System Shock 2, rather than the trailers/demos. Those two...

I don't count Infinite as a "must play" classic like BioShock 1 is. In my book BS Infinite earned an 8 / 10, since its a good game and deserves a respectable score. But I think the 10's and 9's its...

She can open tears up into other worlds and jump through time. I don’t think taking away her ability to summon in a storm cloud would make her seem any less god-like and relatable.

Developers sure...

^ This 100%

Infinite is only a pale shadow of its predecessors. Its a far less relevant and important piece of gaming history. I very much doubt folks that like it now, will be singing its praises...

The tears were more or less redundant tbh, due to the fact that all those elements could have always been active in the level from the get go, and the players would still have had the same choices to...

Now that gamers have had a chance to ponder over their experience with Infinite, you'll probably see a lot more criticism directed towards it.
Constructive criticism from sites like Destructoid and...

Don't forget crafting and research.

I've been saying the same thing for weeks as well.. :(

Infinite was the one game I was counting on to deliver a deep and immersive gameplay experience to...

For me a classic is a 10/10, a great game is a 9/10 and good game is a 8/10. And that last score is where Infinite fits in, 8/10.

So in answer to the topics question, "Is Bioshock: infinite really...

Not even close i'm afraid. I can name a whole bunch of current gen games with better stories than Infinite's; BioShock 1 + 2, Red Dead Redemption, Batman Arkham Asylum, Dead Space 1, Far Cry 2, Mass...

Well thats not exactly true. The System Shock and BioShock games have their roots deep within the RPG genre. Actually SS1/2 termed the genre name FPS/RPG hybrid, so while BS1 did move away from its...

^ Thanks for the vid dude. That review pretty much sums up most of everything that I personally felt was wrong with Infinite.




Some of us have been long time Irrational Games and before that...

Wish I had seen this before the game came out, oh well..

Anyway here is a YT interview of Ken saying in no uncertain terms that a game like BioShock 1 is not a viable option in the current...

I'm playing BS1 right now, and the first thing I noticed when I arrived in Rapture was all the physics enabled objects and debris laying around. The way the players avatar or splicers would bump into...

The problem isn't false advertising, its that they obviously changed the design of this game at a later stage for one reason or another. I don't doubt for a second that what they showed in the demo...

Yep. Even though the reviews have been really good, and I do like the game, I gotta agree with ya, that it feels very lacking in comparison to the older games. So yeah I agree with all of the above...

That kind of intolerance towards other peoples opinions draws a great parallel with the folk inhabiting Columbia. ;)

J/K


The article encompasses both I feel. 1. That the violence is...

Well thats not really a genre more of a theme. The correct genre term is FPS/RPG hybrid. Combining RPG elements / mechanics with a shooter.

As already mentioned the Mass Effect games fit into this...

Video game is a video game. Or how about something that goes beyond a video game, or a movie, novel or any other media?

How about giving players more choice to play the game the way they want to...
