BioShock: Infinite

[STALKER_2012]

Hey guys :)
BioShock: Infinite will be released on the 26th of February 2013. Who of you is excited? How did you liked the first two games set in the dystopian underwater city of Rapture? Discus it here! :pop2:

Here is a new trailer released a few hours ago. Enjoy!

(don't know how to make you can watch the video right here, sorry)

[cerberus]

It's one of three games I'm very much looking forward to (the others being Metro: Last Light & The Last Guardian). First Bioshock game was ace, the sequel (read: spin-off) was absolute cack. The Minerva's Den expansion on the other hand was spectacular.

Put the Youtube movie id between these, as such:

Clear the space between / and YOUTUBE in the last part and you'll get this:

[STALKER_2012]

Thank you very much, cerberus. The three games I am looking forward are Assassin's Creed III, BioShock: Infinite and Metro: Last Light.
BioShock 2 was absolute briliant, such as the first game. BioShock is just a franchise I fell in love with :)

[Bamul]

Looking good. I always found this game interesting because I loved the first two, but I'm sure it won't be the same without Rapture... then again, I guess it's better that it's finally new and they're not milking the previous setting to death, but then why are they using the BioShock name? Still, there's a 50% chance that I'll get the game when it comes out.

[cerberus]

That's a rather stupid question, Bamul. I will spare you the obvious marketing reasons but if Ken Levine (the original Bioshock creator) thinks the game's themes fit within the universe that he created then there's no reason not to use the Bioshock name. For instance, I'm sure he would've named it System Shock: Infinite if the themes would fit the System Shock universe...

[cerberus]

Since we now have a Bioshock: Infinite topic, I thought I'd post the Heavy Hitters featurettes:

Part I: Motorized Patriot
SkqcLIYWj5w
Part II: Handyman
0eDgjiy8JRc
Part III: Boys of Silence (my favourite)
btA07qRZR4Q
Part IV: Siren
MOts__QlUHo

[STALKER_2012]

The Boys of Silence are also my favourites. The creepy design is awesome. Irrational Games know how to make a game interesting. I hope the soundtrack will be as amazing as the soundtracks of BioShock 1 & 2.

[cerberus]

I'm sure it will be if Garry Schyman returns.

[Bamul]

That's a rather stupid question, Bamul. I will spare you the obvious marketing reasonsGlad you did so, as I wasn't asking about that. The marketing reasons really are obvious indeed - I was wondering if there was anything else. Though I guess my question was quite stupid, as it wasn't specific enough.

[cerberus]

I was wondering if there was anything else.There was, as I have explained to you. Artistic integrity.

[cerberus]

Pretty. Very pretty, in fact. But I don't have the money for this.

[Komodo Saurian]

Paperweight.

[Bamul]

Pretty much, but a good looking one at that. :p

Why do you despise multiplayer so much? I mean lokk at dayz or ro2 both are very immersive mps

Well yes, by all means, go play your DayZ etc. Enjoy it, and let me enjoy my immersive story-driven single player game in peace.

That's great.

There are a lot of games that do multiplayer better than Bioshock ever did.

Can't beat the System Shock 2 coop though :D

[cerberus]

there are a lot of games that do multiplayer better than bioshock ever did.qft.

I dont want to convert you or something just wanna know why you dont like mp

[cerberus]

Because it's throwaway entertainment. It's what I play when I want to kill time fast. Single player is the exact opposite.

[Hoenkoper]

No multiplayer gives as much satisfaction as an epic singleplayer!

[Bamul]

Thestalker, multiplayer in RO2 and DayZ is something completely different to MP in BioShock. RO2 and DayZ are primarily multiplayer games and (for example) the singleplayer component of Red Orchestra 2 is only meant to serve as a tutorial to teach the player how to enjoy the thrills of realistic gameplay with other players. BioShock is a story-driven singleplayer game - multiplayer simply does not belong there, as it detracts from the experience. ;)

[cerberus]

All hail the embarrassingly generic boxart (http://kotaku.com/5964876/yes-bioshock-infinites-cover-is-terrible-and-yes-that-actually-matters). Chin down, eyes up! (http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/itmzga/mega64-chin-down--eyes-up)

http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/187068jg3mabdjpg/original.jpg

To put it in perspective, here's the classy European steelbook boxart of the original Bioshock.
http://collectorsedition.org/uploads/2008/11/bioshock_steelbook_edition_xbox_360_pal_2k_1.jpg

[TheStalker]

my eyes!! Why do all the games have the main charecter close up as covers now. ALL of them.

[cerberus]

American boxarts are notorious for being abso-fucking-lutely tasteless.

[TheStalker]

American boxarts are notorious for being abso-fucking-lutely tasteless.

So true man. you european guys get all the steel cases ):

[Bamul]

That's some very crappy box art indeed!

[cerberus]

If I were to design the box art, I'd draw inspiration from a "Beauty & the Beast"-type of silhouette image. Kind of like this one here:
http://www.filmeducation.org/images/film_library/beauty_and_the_beast.jpg
Change the setting a bit, replace the beast with Songbird and put the Bioshock logo on it. Print this tasteful presentation on a steelbook and you've got yourself a gorgeous work of art. Pre-ordered!

[Bamul]

That would actually be an excellent idea. Even if it wasn't, it would still be miles better than the generic bullcrap they went with.

[cerberus]

Of course it's an excellent idea! I'm an artist :yo:

[TheStalker]

I see you like your games boxed. We are a dying breed man. Also in the usa I wish we had steelbooks as weel ):

[cerberus]

Golden Cerberus rule: if it's not boxed, you don't own it.

At least there's a new interesting interview (http://uk.gamespot.com/bioshock-infinite/videos/the-soul-of-bioshock-infinite-an-interview-with-ken-levine-6401219/) with Ken Levine.

[Komodo Saurian]

I really wonder what twist will there be with the Comstock.

[cerberus]

We get tons of hands-on info in this week's episode (http://www.gametrailers.com/full-episodes/k8wg04/invisible-walls-episode-236--biotomb-infinite-raider) of Invisible Walls. The Bioshock: Infinite segment starts at about 37 minutes in.

[Komodo Saurian]

Oh boy, it's so weird seing thirty something people discussing trivial little things the've seen for the first time in their lives.

"Holy crap, peaceful area in a game! You don't see that in black ops 2!"

[cerberus]

A bit of an exaggeration but I do see their point; the majority of modern games are fast & loud nowadays. It's refreshing to be able to walk, explore and enjoy the scenery without firing a weapon every two seconds in a FPS.

[cerberus]

Gameplay! (http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/mywsxt/bioshock-infinite-vga-2012--world-premiere-trailer)

EDIT: Love it! Except for one thing... The constant on-screen button prompts. Seriously. I'm an intelligent man, I don't need to see a reminder for what the A button does every ten seconds. "Press x, you dumb fuck". It's fucking insulting.

[cerberus]

Graphics Options Revealed (http://www.pcgamer.com/2012/12/07/bioshock-infinite-graphics-options-revealed/)

[cerberus]

Alternate box art available (http://uk.gamespot.com/news/ken-levine-bioshock-infinite-box-art-for-the-uniformed-6401319)

"We went and did a tour… around to a bunch of, like, frathouses and places like that. People who were gamers. Not people who read IGN. And [we] said, 'So, have you guys heard of BioShock?' Not a single one of them had heard of it."

Frathouses. Motherfucking frathouses. :derp:

[cerberus]

Good & bad news. Let's start with the good: No Securom or GFWL for Bioshock Infinite's PC version (http://www.destructoid.com/bioshock-infinite-pc-won-t-have-securom-or-gfwl-241048.phtml). And now the bad: there's still Steam's cunting DRM though...

[TheStalker]

Well. Cant you buy it from the store cereberus? No drm ftw.

[cerberus]

No DRM = a gog.com version which will never see the light of day unless they've learnt a little something from Remedy. The retail copy will probably require Steam for online activation.

[TheStalker]

Perhaps but maybe not. But im pretty shure yould still buy it. You seem really exited

[cerberus]

I did build a rig for it (and Last Light). I will definitely buy one version but play another.

[cerberus]

No DLC. (http://www.examiner.com/article/no-bioshock-infinite-dlc-confirmed)

"Ken Levine said there will not be any additional DLC to come from Irrational after the game is launched."

There is however the pre-order bonus items issue...

[Bamul]

"there will not be any additional DLC to come from Irrational after the game is launched."That seems to me like a fancy way of saying: "We won't make any DLC for it, but we (or 2K) will probably get another studio to do that". But you never know - we'll just have to wait and see.

[cerberus]

I don't think Irrational will allow some other studio to tamper with their work.

[Bamul]

Not really about what they want or will do. I'm pretty sure that 2K, as the publisher, will do whatever brings them profit and Irrational will have to agree like any other developer. After all, BioShock 2 was made by a different studio.

[cerberus]

Ugh Bioshock 2... Don't remind me... Either way, if 2K decides it wants to crap on Irrational's hard work then I hope the devs will put their foot down and object.

[Bamul]

I doubt it. If they will, then they will most likely lose their jobs (and you know how hard it is to have a steady position as a game designer in the gaming industry). That's just how things work in this pathetic system.

[cerberus]

As long as it's not a pre-order exclusive/premium on-disc ULC type of thing I'm all for it.

Can't bloody wait for this game. It was the first Bioshock that convinced me to buy a next-gen system back in '07, I fittingly see Infinite as a sort of current-gen swan song for me.

I might pick it up I might not. It just isn't Bioshock without rapture. Rapture was Bioshock and without it...it just isn't what it used to be. I don't know why they call it Bioshock. I think they just wanted to use the name as a way to sell it.

[Shurfire]

Because it's throwaway entertainment. It's what I play when I want to kill time fast. Single player is the exact opposite.

I agree some what. If a game can have a killer single player while having a killer multiplayer why not? Halo 4 has a long and extremely well done single player while also having an amazing multiplayer. I agree some games shouldn't have multiplayer like Bioshock, elder scrolls (fuck elder scrolls online).

Interesting new info but pretty spoilery as well.

Pretty sure Levine mentioned in an earlier interview that Infinite was set in its self-contained universe.

[Shurfire]

That makes total sense how Bioshock 1 and 2 take place in the 40s and is built by Andrew Ryan. Wow you really never played the first two games have you?

[cerberus]

That makes total sense how Bioshock 1 and 2 take place in the 40s and is built by Andrew Ryan.Rapture was built in the 40's (construction began in '46 and was finished in '51). Bioshock takes place in 1960. Bioshock 2 takes place in 1968.

Bioshock Infinite takes place in an entirely different universe.

If you pre-order Infinite then you get the first Bioshock free. The first and second one are amazing and really creepy. This one seems more like some action shooter than what the original two were. I'm still going to keep my eye on it but it's not one of those games where I say "TAKE MY FUCKING MONEH!"

Is that a steam only deal 'cause I didn't see that deal mentioned for the 360 and I only play games on the 360. I bought BioShock Ultimate Rapture Edition which contains BioShock 1 & 2 plus DLC for both games. That should keep me busy 'till Infinite drops in price.

I bought my copy from Amazon today yet to ship so I don't know. One of the reviewers on there notes the DLC contained with the package but makes no mention of those two multiplayer characters. Is is easy to find a match for BioShock 2?

[cerberus]

Quite so, yes. Played the 360 version this weekend because Gold was free and I had no problem getting into several games. Keep in mind that it's either Survival of the Fittest, Team Deathmatch or Capture the Little Sister. Turf War, (Team)Adam grab or Kill 'em Kindly are not very popular.

[TotalAaron]

Demos for infinite look very good :)

[Shurfire]

Yea it's PC only. Steam gives you Bioshock 1, TF2 hats and if they get enough pre-orders you get x-com enemy unknown. If you get it from Greenmangaming.com you get Bioshock 1 and your choice of either Spec ops the line, darkness 2, mafia 2, and I think x-com enemy unknown or some other game.

[TotalAaron]

I demand everyone on this forum play spec ops the line!

The gameplay of Spec Ops: The Line was really average, but the story was surprisingly good and really intense, the complete opposite of normal shooter stories.

From a pure gameplay side length= about 5-6 hours Multi=not what you buy/rent it for please just buy it

[Hoenkoper]

I might pick it up when it goes on sale. Is the multiplayer any good and how long is the single player?

Multiplayer doesn't work because there is nobody who still plays it. The campaign took me about 7-8 hours to beat, but that was on the hardest difficulty. The ending is great and you will remember it for a long time.

[cerberus]

Anyone who feels the need to buy Spec Ops: The Line for its multiplayer component - which was slammed by the developers themselves (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-08-29-yager-spec-ops-multiplayer-was-bullsh-and-should-not-exist), and rightfully so - is severely missing the point of what this game is trying to accomplish and should stay far, far away from it or any other game that offers a similar thought-provoking experience.

Multiplayer doesn't work because there is nobody who still plays it. The campaign took me about 7-8 hours to beat, but that was on the hardest difficulty. The ending is great and you will remember it for a long time.

Exactly what he said but the Ps3 still has one or two serves running

I went of games for a month after "that bit"

Spec Ops: The Line is not overrated, but underrated. Most critics completely missed the point of the game and its message - when they reviewed it.

[Hoenkoper]

The reviews until now are great, an average of 95 and because it's coming out tomorrow, it's still possible to pre-order it with an extra game :)

[TotalAaron]

hmm apparently its less RPG more FRPGS

[TheStalker]

SPOILERS!
ENDING and credits.

Note: please keep discussion of the ending to spoiler tags as not to spoil it for Cerberus.

[Shurfire]

Why the fuck would you think to post the ending to the game in the thread?

[TotalAaron]

You maniacs you blew it up DAMN you DAMN you all to hell

[Aaron]

Don't watch it if you don't want to... Even if it is stupid...

[TotalAaron]

i never did the message was aimed at TheStalker for putting it up in te first place

[TheStalker]

I put it up to see people rage. And it works :)

[TheStalker]

MYNE NAME HAS BEEN CENSORED! TheStalker is now Thestalker!

[TotalAaron]

[Hoenkoper]

I put it up to see people rage. And it works :)

You're getting really annoying...

[TheStalker]

You're getting really annoying...
:p
come on. Liven up a bit

[GoodLordApollo]

So all in all, these forum's problems are all Stalker's fault?
BURN HIM, BURN HIM WITH FIRE!

[Aaron]

I think you've earned a trip to the corner, Stalker.

[TheStalker]

YOU DARE CALL ZEE CORNER The Corner?
You disgrace! :p (joking. Seems everyone has lost all meaning of sarcasm now)

[TotalAaron]

Wow Thestalker your going to create a small war if your not carefull

[Aaron]

Wow Thestalker your going to create a small war if your not carefull

I'd say "But he already did"... But I feel like that would ruin the lesson.

[TotalAaron]

The lesson of not pissing the forum off?

[Hoenkoper]

(joking. Seems everyone has lost all meaning of sarcasm now)

I think we lost all meaning of your sarcasm.

[TheStalker]

T_T
FORGIVE ME!
Please guys. PLEASE. T_T

[Pip314]

Just got the game... it's got beautiful graphics and runs smoothly on my laptop... Much gorier than I remember, though... The first guy to attack you gets his face torn in half - gross!

[TheStalker]

Imagine if the end is Columbia crahses into the ocean and becomes Rapture?
MAJOR SPOILERS RELATED TO THE ENDING PAST
I can't believe it I WAS RIGHT! Columbia is really Rapture in another universe and booker is comstock and andrew!

[Shurfire]

Holy shit this game is beast. I really thought it was going to suck ass but it turned out to be amazing. Even on all max the graphics are a little...different. I find that even Borderlands 2 had better graphics since the blood just looks weird but what ever. The story telling is amazing. I love Booker and Elizabeth. I love how it's a linear shooter yet there is so much to explore! There are so many ways to fight. You could bring in a hook, grapple on to it and drop in with the gear that makes enemies around you fall and just blow them away with a shotgun. The game is just amazing. No wonder it got a 10/10 on pretty much every review site.

[GoodLordApollo]

I'm pretty sure I know what happens at the end of Bioshock: Infinite it is quite simple if you pay attention.

Edit:I was half correct in some ways.
I'm going to create a thread where we can discuss the ending of Bioshock: Infinite.

You can't necessarily say that Booker is Andrew/Jack, because he wouldn't, isn't and wasn't, but in a way he is. Jack is the same as Booker in some aspects, he exhibits the space of Booker in different universes but in some way still isn't Booker. Do you understand what I mean?

[TheStalker]

That's true but at the same time it is heavily implied Jack is Booker from another universe, and Andrew is the comstock of that universe. "there's always a man, a light house, and a city" :)

[Bamul]

Is Andrew Ryan the future version of Jack? :wacko:

Much gorier than I remember, though... The first guy to attack you gets his face torn in half - gross!I saw my brother play it and damn... that's some gory shit indeed. :p Funnily Enough, tn the new Tomb Raider, Lara's first kill is achieved through a QTE and holy crap it's disgusting (for a video game).
