Sheikah Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 So, finished this today. This is without doubt one of the finest games ever made. Absolutely. It's wonderful to see what the combination of great ideas and a massive budget can do. Amazing how they created something different again like they did with the first BioShock while also including so much of what made the first a gem. They need to make more games like this. After you play something like this, you realise all post-apocalyptic, modern or world war set FPS games are just droll. Fabulous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 you realise all post-apocalyptic, modern or world war set FPS games are just droll. I payed a modern FPS with a post-apocalyptic story not long after Bioshock Infinite. The game was fun but average to start with, then the story got more and more interesting and I was amazed by the end. That game is Spec Ops: The Line. So the "all" thing isn't entirely true.

dwarf Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 And Fallout 3 remains the game of the generation for me. (sure it's 3rd person too, pedant) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheikah Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Fallout 3 isn't third person? Great game too, but I wouldn't call it a FPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) It's better played in first person but you can play it in 3rd person too. Helps to switch between them, 3rd is useful for stealth and appreciating perspective in terms of the size of your character vis a vis the wasteland. You missed out.

Sheikah Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Yeah I know about the 3rd person mode but it was done terribly in TES and Fallout. It didn't feel right at all to control, and the character didn't move naturally. Edited May 7, 2013 by Sheikah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babooo Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Just nabbed myself a copy of this on ebay for less than £20 delivered! Bargain. Looking forward to playing this next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Gibbs Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 okay so without spoilers mentioned please...... What should i buy this game for? Pc or ps3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I think I read somewhere that the textures were noticeably better on the PC version. Unless your monitor is poor, go for it. Likely to be cheaper too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheikah Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Get it on PC and link it to your TV via HDMI (if your graphics card has this ability). Then hook up a dualshock 3/ other gamepad if you have one. I did this. Like playing it on PS3 but with PC graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Gibbs Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 that settles it then its cheap enough on steam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbob Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Just completed it now. Regarding the ending, after the barge battle. My head hurts just thinking about it, from what i gathered with all the changes there could have been a billion Comstocks and Bookers running around. Oh, and arriving in Rapture from a tear. I had a little feeling there was a chance to fight a Big Daddy or a nutter or two. Seeing the signs littered around about Ryan, it gave me an incling. The game itself is brilliant, great story and good characters. The final battle itself with the Zepplins took a couple of tries, but using the powers against those bugger robots made it easier to send the Songbird to the Zepplins. Nice to control the bird after all the time in-game. The game as a whole was done well, only one little jump moment. And that was in the Wardens office with the enemy right behind you. The ghost battles annoyed the fuck out of me, i mean 3 of them. 1 was bad enough that was for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwolf Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 After finishing about two hours ago: Honestly, I loved it, it was beautiful looking, had wonderful music and I was confused yet really enthralled by the ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoMan1031 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I started this last week on 360. It defo still has the Bioshock feel to it but still quite new at the same time! I'm slowly getting into it, I'm on Chapter 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drahkon Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Clash in the Clouds. Lol. More like Cash in the Clouds, amirite? /unfunny Burial at Sea looks good, though. Still need to play Bioshock and Bioshock 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Clash in the Clouds.Lol. More like Cash in the Clouds, amirite? /unfunny Im wondering if that one was made as a way to justify the season pass they sold. Maybe the story ones werent enough.

Cube Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I suppose it's fine if the other DLCs are £7.99 and this is essentially free for the season pass. Oddly, this is exactly the kind of DLC I wanted for Tomb Raider (due to the amazing combat), and the complete opposite I wanted from Bioshock. Especially as they heavily suggested three story-based DLCs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ville Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Speaking of Bioshock, would you recommend playing BS2 before this? I watched my brother play and reveal the main plot points of the first one so I'm not that into playing that, but is the second one worth buying?

dwarf Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Did anyone download this? If I wasn't so busy with work I'd be there, although apparently it is very short. Also, posting Cosplay because fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I read that it's kinda disappointing, I don't really want to sour the experience from the game, so I might wait until both episodes are available and see if that improves matters at all.
