    I've been waiting for this game to be release every since I first heard that 2K Games were in the process of developing it. In a nut shell the game is decent and fun to play. The graphics are good and the game play is somewhat challenging. Also art work in the game is quite interesting and fun to look at. Now the bad: 1) The game lacks choices (I know this isn't a RPG, but still a couple of character decision making choices would have been nice). The lack of choices makes the game feel somewhat linear to me. It also reduces the fun and replay fact. 2) In this Bioshock there's section of the game that you see regular citizens of Columbia walking around, playing games, or just having a picnic. My issue is that you can't interact with the citizens. The game developers should have allowed the gamer to talk to the citizens of Columbia. This would of made the story much more interesting and interactive. 3) There's no Big Daddy! The game has a character call Handyman which I guess is there replacement for Big Daddy. The handyman character is interesting, but just doesn't compare to the original bioshock Big Daddy character. 4) Also the story is too religious base for my taste. I felt that the writer could have tone it down or could have gone in a different direction with the story. 5) You can only carry two weapons at a time! Overall the game is fun to play and I do recommend you to buy it, especially if you like the original game. But if big fan of the original bioshock game, like I am, you can't help but feel that the game isn't as good as the original and that the game is missing something. But the GOOD NEWS is that if you buy the game for the PS3 instead of the Xbox you receive the original Bioshock for free. I never finished the original game so receive the full game for free was a nice bonus (the game is on the same disc)!

    Bioshock Infinite has a great storyline, just like its predecessor. The gameplay is typical first person shooter style. The graphics are phenomenal and the audio is top notch. If you liked the original Bioshock, you will like this iteration.

    I'm giving this game 5 stars because the gameplay was fun, the music was great, the story was a unique take on nationalism/communism/quantum physics, and the visual style was brand new. This is to emotion what Fallout 2 is to survival. Gameplay - The "plasmids" have been improved in a big way. In Bioshock, we had lightning blast, fire blast, ice blast, wind blast, etc. This has a tentacle you can use to grab people across the map and pull them in front of you, a murder of crows that distracts enemies and nests in their corpses, a shield that grabs incoming bullets and throws them back at enemies, and 5 others, all upgradable. Tears let you summon cover, ammo, health, sentries, mechs, weapons and access points, giving you a little more freedom in choosing a combat style. The rails you use to travel across levels, as well as numerous hidden supply caches, encourage a more movement-based combat style as opposed to the camping and ducking most FPS games have us familiar with. You can mix and match different sets of clothes to get your desired effects applied, like leeching or auto-reload. There's not much in the way of bosses, since the big bad guys in this game are weaker than you, and rightfully so since you're a Pinkerton enforcer. The music is touching. It's a mix of prototypical 60s hits, original compositions, classical music and gospel. The sound effects for the weapons, the voice acting, and the ambient noise are all carefully constructed and it shows. A lot of work went into the art direction and atmosphere. Propaganda artwork like we saw in Bioshock is prevalent and varied. Irrational was going for a 1912 feel and they nailed it. The heavily political storyline was approached with maturity and restraint. What I thought would either be a colonial justification echo chamber or a white guilt party actually ended up portraying both sides pretty negatively. The story ended up moving away from politics and into a meditation on time and space, and this is when the story really took off. Irrational didn't go the easy route and pluck random events from their imagination. They made every jump necessary. They wanted to make us intimately aware of the weight of Booker's decision that I'm not going to spoil here. The last part of the ending didn't make a lot of sense, but it was presented beautifully.

    I had been waiting a long time to play this game. Since it was delayed a couple of times. It was worth the wait. I played the original bioshock and I knew I would enjoy this game. It is a lot different than the original bioshock but the stories are similar. I liked the combat in the original bioshock a little more. The ending of this game is amazing! My only complaint is that visuals are a bit dated. I would recommend this To anyone who likes a good story and this offers replayability.

    Easily in my top five favorite games from the past five years. If you're on the fence, but have the money I don't see why you don't pick it up. While familiar with the Bioshock series, I had never played them previously, but besides a few subtle nods to Bioshock predecessors, that was hardly a hindrance. With an engaging gameplay, thought-provoking and unique storyline, and solid graphics I don't see anything wrong with this game in the least. Way worth it.

    If you're expecting this to be a continuation (or even similar) of Bioshock or Bioshock 2, you're not going to get what you expected. Yes, it carries the Bioshock name, but it is not really very Bioshock-y. It's an entirely different game in my opinion. But it's a fantastic game and that's what matters. It starts off a little slow and you don't get to kill anything for a while, but it does pick up after a bit. I have no complaints. This game is awesome.

    This game has been the best I've so far experienced. It has so much detail, keeps you guessing till the end, is thought provoking, fun, and intense! The graphics are awesome and the storyline is even better! The ending will throw you off for a spin too! It kept me thinking and guessing about the whole meaning of the story for days after I finished. Definitely worth the money and you won't be disappointed if you're into first-person shooter games.

    Mobility in an FPS only involves strafing & jumping. Well in Infinite u can take to the sky. I played this game in 1 weekend which I haven't done in years. Not to say the game is short, I just didn't want to stop playing. This is a must buy for any Gamer even if u don't like the genre. Myself I'm not a FPS fan but Bioshock is as much an adventure & action game as it is a shooter. Stop reading this & buy the game

    If you are a fan of either first or third person shooter games, and fantasy worlds then I highly recommend Bioshock Infinite. This game does not disappoint on any count. The storyline, amazing graphics, characters all come together leaving you entertained and thrilled. Though I also recommend the other games from the Bioshock series, it is not necessary to first play them, before approaching Infinite!!!

    This game is a blast to play! The storyline draws you in and makes you want to know what happens next, while the game play is as challenging as you choose to make it (there are adjustable difficulty settings you can change on the fly if necessary). Addicting, fun, and yes, a bit gratuitously gory, but fun fun fun!
