best3444 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I totally forgot I had this in my steam library. I am going to download it shortly but I was curious in what you guys thought about it? I think I only played Bioshock and Bioshock 2. Part 2 I never finished but part 1 at the time was incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only do the visuals hold up (put everything on ultra) but the gameplay and combat are great. It has that magic from the original Bioshock but is a lot different too. I think I'll play more tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamer.tv Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I played it once at launch and loved it. I’ve got the trilogy on PS5, so I should revisit them - especially as the first game always goes on my top 10 lists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do some really cool stuff with music. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the atmosphere out of the gate is tremendous. Music was tight, too. They try to recreate the Rapture scene in the beginning and I think they pull it off quite well.

I think I remember you saying part 2 is actually BETTER than Bioshock 1. Yes, I'm really looking forward to Judas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm really looking forward to Judas. I think as a game it’s better than Bioshock, but the overall story isn’t as good and it doesn’t have the same impact. They are all great though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 It’s great and better than the original. The original was limited IMO because all interactions are just over the radio or through glass. Infinite has someone always interacting with you and it’s all the better because of it. It ties to two games together in a fun way too if you’re into weird stories 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStar189 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I loved it when I played it way back at release. I remember people not liking something about it but I ignored all that and had a good time with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I played and finished the first one but never touched the other two... both are in my Playstaytion Library though. Maybe the closer we get to that "new Bioshock" game I'll play them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLeon Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I loved all three Bioshock games in their day, and Infinite is probably the best overall. That’s one I should revisit some day. I bought the collection on Switch a while ago because it was a whole $10. Probably not the best place to play it, but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsolutSurgen Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Bioshock Infinite was a solid game, but IMHO nowhere near as impactful as the first game. A big part of why the first game was so impactful, was down to how innovative it was. The second game was "better" -- but it really was just an expansion of the first game -- with very little innovation in terms of new skills. I really don't think I will ever be interested enough to play it a second time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect Infinite to touch that but some here consider it the best of the 3 overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the time travel mechanics/storytelling never connected with me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finaljedi Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I liked it when I played it. I can't seem to get myself to revisit it in it's entirety though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
best3444 Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 Well I played for almost 2 hours. I got a cool vigor in the beginning that I liked but then got two more which took the one I liked away lol... So I guess you can only have two set vigors at a time and maybe I missed the part where I could choose to keep the one I liked. The combat is really basic so far but satisfying. For a 2013 the game has a lot going on at any given time with impressive visuals. The character models have definitely aged. So far, I dig it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I enjoyed it. Ending is a bit derpy but other than the original I can’t think of many games I’ve gotten to the end of and thought it was a meaningful conclusion to what I just experienced. Ruiner has a “would you kindly” kind of ending that I enjoyed but I feel like I’m the only person to ever play it so who cares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unogueen Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Another rollercoaster talking up choice, when there's not really much into it, but Levine twisted that ending twenty ways because Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShreddieMercury Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 It has the best shooting mechanics and is the best feeling of the three games, but it's stripped down in terms of the immersive-sim-lite elements that Bioshock and Bioshock 2 favored. It's a much more linear shooter. This is not a bad thing, it's just a different approach that was adopted based on the game's arduous and overambitious development. The game's politics are definitely flawed but I really didn't think it was nearly as egregious as more modern criticism would have you believe.
