From regenerating health after a critical kill, or watching people burst into flame after they have struck you, the fun just keeps going here □ Only one piece of gear can be worn per section (you have your hat, shirt, pants, and boots), but they give you all sorts of cool abilities. These potions are hidden all over the world, and will really come in handy. Infusion potions let you choose between upgrading your health, shield, or salts. We finally have character upgrades! While you cannot mess with your characters looks, you can play with Booker’s stats. Another cool thing about the fighting style in this game is that you have critical hits that cause death cinematics for your enemies (much like Skyrim), and it is so much fun to watch the blood spray everywhere! Only, the skyhook never runs out of ammo, and it allows you to zip-line across the city and attack people from above. You have your melee weapon which is the Skyhook (kind of like Alpha’s drill). Bioshock Infinite took fighting to the next level with all the new elements. So, to me, the gameplay in this game is a lot longer, and you have to plan on playing until you reach an autosave point (more on that down below). There was just so much running back and forth to do all the different quests, and enemies were larger in number. This is just my personal opinion, but, Bioshock Infinite seemed to take a lot more time to beat than the previous 2 games. Another instance of humor is near the end of the game when Elizabeth ends up taking Booker through Rapture and he says: “A city under the sea? Yeah…whatever.” They spawn at the most random of times and always have something very funny and witty to say, Most the time they are helping you out, and other times they are there to confuse you. Two characters you should know about are the Lutece twins. ![]() But really, there are just too many instances to list. I wish I could go into more detail about all the humor in this game. We may not like Booker at times, but, in the end, we sympathize with him. Still, this is the first character that we get to have that deeper connection with, that we get to hear speak and really understand them (unlike Jack and Alpha). Almost heartless and nonchalant…his bluntness gets him into a lot of trouble and yet he gets the job done and won’t lie to anyone // friend or foe. Booker DeWitt speaks alright, and he is blunt about what is on his mind. It covers things such as Science, Religion, and even race. “Bring us the girl and wipe away the debt!” is all your character can think about as he goes to Columbia in order to steal a girl out of the Tower called ‘Monument Island’. Whereas the first two Bioshock games took us through Rapture in the 1960’s (a city that was under the ocean), Bioshock Infinite takes place in the floating city of Columbia in 1912 // 50 years before the original Bioshock games ever happened! Greater still is that you get a brand new protagonist and antagonist, a brand-new mission with nothing that seems even relatively familiar. There is nothing I can say here which would not show up down below in the pros and cons…so I guess, all that is left to do is to start naming off the things I adored and despised about “Bioshock Infinite”!!! Still, Bioshock Infinite is something that is so familiar and yet so different at the same time. Granted, Bioshock 2 did not get the best rating, but, I was still fond of it all the same. Sooooooo…where on earth do I start this review? I will go ahead and say that I LOVE the Bioshock Series!!! Every game has had me on the edge of my chair, curious as to what is going on, and my mind is always blown as the pieces of the story slowly come together with all the shocking little twists. I have been super busy at work and planning my vacation, but, hopefully I can get back in the groove of things and start getting up more content for you guys. I do apologize for my lack of activity on here. It has been awhile since I have done a game review, but, seeings as I just finished the last installment of the Bioshock Series ( minus the DLC-and at this time it had been a very long time since I had indeed last posting), I must say that this could not have come soon enough. This particular review was written a long time ago and taken from the old website and placed on here, so, the writing format will be just a little bit different. ![]()
