The 1999 mode rises my interest. Hopefully it will turn the gameplay into actual survival horror unlike Bioshock 1 & 2.

The recent footage of this game looks pretty underwhelming, I think it might get 8 or less.

Ign review in progress is up and their full review will come on Thursday.

Comments that the 360 version (and I guessing the PS3 version too) suffer from some muddy and low rez textures and slight framerate dips (reminded the reviewer of the console versions of Dishonored in some ways), but this is minor stuff and pretty much expected.

Anyway about a week to go!

Survival horror. Neat take.

Hope it is as good as the first two.

Don't know why people act like the 2nd one sucked or isnt a proper part of the series.

If anything this one doesnt look much like the first two games/this series much. Just look at the art design and atmosphere, its way different then the first two.

I am hopign this new one kicks ass, but I am getting a little worried to be 100% honest.

Loved the first two games, hope this one is good to.

BioShock 2 was made by 2K Marin, not Irrational. In my eyes, Infinite is the sequel the first game deserves.

B2 wasn't that bad, it did some things better than the first. The story and protagonist were much more engaging, you actually were SOMEONE instead of some floating pair of hands with a sweater sleeve. And the ending as well, B2 seemed to get better as it went on while the original dropped in quality after Andrew Ryan.

Hyping this as a AAA title hopefully it will be what Bioshock 2 should have been. The first was amazing the second a letdown hopefully the third one is a return to form. My most anticapted game of the year.

in 2009 Irrational Games planed on making Bioshock Infinite in the renaissance, but the idea was scrapped do to Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed 2. And that is "whats up with all the American Stuff". Happy 26th March (Bioshock Day).

I'm not too keen on this one (especially since the first one was simply not as good as everyone claimed it was), but the massive advertising money-fueled hype machine is pretty much assuring this one a 9.5 everywhere.

too bad that idiot yesterday tried to ruin the ending for lots of people, hopefully what he said was wrong....but who cares about a lowlife like him...what a dickhead....

this is still going to be a fantastic experience and almost certainly my GOTY.

Thankfully I managed to avoid any threads with that person in yesterday. But I heard about it, sorry to anyone who had it ruined by such a jackass.

I reckon GTA5 has a very, very good chance....Rockstar have been on it for ages and they wont let a GTA game be sh1t. expect everyone to start getting super excited when gameplay is shown. Also, how come no news on the next COD? yet, isn't it around this time we get rumours that everyone already knew about?

 

So long as it doesn't get completely overrated like GTA IV did in my eyes.

I agree. Thought the first one didn't do anything special at all. Nice game but nothing extraordinary.

Looking through the youtube gameplay videos... what's so special about Infinite. It looks fairly generic, probably a solid game, but why so much hype I wonder.

Why is this thread so dead? I thought this was a huge release and it'd have 100s of posts. Hell, even Gears of Duty: Judgement is more active than this. I'm confused.

Game comes out in 4 days, people are spoiling it left and right. People are cautious to come onto the internet, let alone this thread.

I really doubt that's a big part of it. People ALWAYS go spoiling big releases left and right, I don't see how this is any different. Just odd that's there's literally no hype for this game on SW.

Considering how many people seemed to dislike Bioshock 2, the crazy hype for Infinite doesn't make much sense.

A day or two ago, there was a level one going making threads and posts everywhere spoiling the end of the game. People are wary of Bioshock related things on GS after that.

gta 5 will certainly not be a bad game cuz its Rockstar and they know sup but will it be original enough to win goty against TLOU/Infinite? I don't think so.

IGN review is up. 9.4

Slashkice

The PC version got a 9.5. Still very impressive on all fronts anyway.
