I love the Bioshock series & this game delivers in spades. I can't wait to download the DLC for it too. The graphics, storyline, & characters are amazing. I wonder what will be next for the series? I really only care about the story & gameplay so we shall see. It's a must buy for sure.

I played the original Bioshock but Bioshock Infinite blew it out of the water. The story was excellent while still maintaining unique nature of the weapons and powers from the original. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good game to take a day or two of playing.

The Bioshock series has been good to really good up to this point. However, Bioshock Infinite brings it to another level. the story, graphics and game-play really make it a classic. This is a highly recommended game regardless of platform.

My favorite game this year. Takes the class Bioshock experience and adds to it (although some areas are simplified), creating fun gameplay, although certain parts are a tad repetitive. Awesome characters and story, as well as the setting.

Bioshock infinite has a complex, intriguing and detailed storyline that keeps you thinking about it for weeks after you've finished it. The hyperviolence does detract but the story is so good that it overshadows everything else.

I've played the first 2 BioShock games. This is not nearly as dark or suspenseful as those. Game plays rather quickly without the DLCs. Save points seem like they take forever to get to. If you start be prepared to play at least a couple hours before it saves. Game was fun to play; going back to finish achievements and possibly the DLCs.

Awesome game, but the first one is still better. Infinite seemed a little on the short side, but it's still Bioshock. Has a great plotline and interesting story.

I loved it, I really did. It may not live up to some of the critical acclaim that is present out there, but I enjoyed the hell out of it. Some of the things other people are saying about it are completely valid, but it really takes your own experience to decide whether or not that will detract from your playthrough. I had to forcefully remove myself from my 360 so I would not play it immediately again, and use up what time I had left for my weekend. A spiritual successor to Bioshock in every way, one of the most fulfilling game purchases I've made in a long time, I love supporting studios like 2K and Irrational Games because they are capable of producing new and unique experiences (and, of course, they're not EA or Activision).

Riveting. I played this game till my eyes hurt. Cool weapons, new 'plasmids' ('vigors' in this game), and a convoluted yet intriguing plot that you'd expect from a bioshock game. Money well spent.

I am just a "casual" gamer and didn't buy this when it first came out. Thus, I didn't buy the game because it was the latest and greatest thing, but because I had a gift certificate that needed to be spent. :) However, I'm glad I did. It is still a great game and has a very interesting and mysterious story that pulls you in and keeps you pushing forward to find out what it is all about. The steampunk theme is also pretty cool, although I was never really a fan of that genre before I got the game. This was definitely a good purchase.

I never played the original Bioshock. But once the ads started popping up on this one I jumped in with both feet. Not only is the story engaging and the graphics amazing it a RUN run through.

Bioshock and Bioshock 2 still rate as two of my favorite games in this generation. Infinite isn't the same, and it varies in a great number of categories. Some for the better, and others for the worse. Elizabeth is a wonderful addition to the series. You don't have to worry about babysitting an NPC, and at the same time, her interactions with the world amaze. All in all, the story for the game is fantastic.
That's not to say everything is great. I miss the hacking mini-games, and the choices you made in the previous games quite a bit. And it's still a pain to get everything you need when the world keeps you from backtracking to get missing items.

Great game, tons of fun, few minor bugs. DO NOT JUMP ON EVERYTHING! You can get stuck and forced to restart, with no save around it can hurt...
