    Bioshock Infinite is an amazing game, the type of game we can't forget. These days, with so many games released, we find a lot of games who suffer from being too generic. Here, with Bioshock Infinite, it's not the case at all ! I played this game twice and I just finished this morning one of the DLC (Burial at sea episode 1 ) which I also recommend.

I played this game twice and I just finished this morning one of the DLC (Burial at sea episode 1 ) which I also recommend.

    For me, this game is almost a 9/10. I think the best section is the first chapters when we enter Columbia. Ken Levine is so good to create worlds and universes. Columbia and Rapture are wonderful and unique ! Also, I must add that Elisabeth is one of the best side characters I ever saw in a video game !

    Bioshock Infinite is quite different than the first two entries (Bioshock 1 and Bioshock 2). It is more linear and they implemented new systems (tears, aerotram, etc...).

    Why I didn't give this game 9 or 10/10 ? I think it's because of the mechanics and the bad difficulty spike for the last battle. I think they should encouraged more the use of the different types of vigors and even create puzzles around that (they missed a huge opportunity here...). At least, in Bioshock 1, there were some small environmental puzzles for the plasmids like melting the ice for exemple.

    However, this is a great game that is still enjoyable in 2022 :)    … Expand

    BioShock Infinite is a shooter in which the shooter is somewhere in the background. During the passage, I practically did not use power engineers. Management done pretty crooked. But instead, BioShock gives a wonderful story, narration, characters. BioShock charges you with a positive thanks to a wonderful style. This is the best story game I've ever played.

The combat is very different than the first Bioshock, its quicker and more mobs-based. There are many mechanics that make combat even more fun, such as skyhooks, vigors, and tears. There are some good power-ups, called vigors (basically plasmids), but at first, they're not that great and your energy(salts/eve) run out quickly. The story is deep and confusing, but I never felt like I had no clue what was happening. It has many great characters that you learn more about and is actually interested in them, such as Booker, Comstock, Fitzroy, and Elizabeth. Sometimes the combat gets repetitive and you wish you could just have a bit more downtime, but I would definitely say this is a great game and it is a wonderful, mysterious, and philosophical experience.… Expand

    This game takes everything great the first two had and throws it into the trash, to replace it with **** call of duty, while keeping the few things that didn't quite work unchanged. Also I don't get why Elizabeth is considered such a great character, she's mediocre IMO.

    -El protagonista parece no tener criterio propio y únicamente es una maquina de matar

    Bien esos serian sus principales defectos ahora queda continuar con lo positivo

    -Estéticamente es impresionante y esto resalta con los escenarios, compartimos con el protagonista la sensación de descubrimiento y magnitud del mundo
    -Elizabeth es un personaje intrigante como algunos mas
    -Trama intrigante con giros que resanan el tema de la jugabilidad
    -Escenas de acción increíbles acompañada de una banda sonora magistral

    Juge este juego en xbox 360 y solo tuve un problema de fps durante una escena, pero se justifica ya que era un escena saturada de acción. Personalmente este juego brilla con sus escenarios e trama, en lo primero la sensación de descubrimiento es algo que solo sentí con the witcher 3 al ver los detalles, los colores, el mundo de columbia es simplemente hermoso, con respecto a la trama es muy intrigante sobretodo en la recta final toca temas ingeniosos que beneficia bastante al entretenimiento

    Quizá mi único problema es que parece que la jugabilidad esta muy separada de la trama, existen muy pocas menciones e usos de las habilidades de booker en toda la historia, ademas de solo ser un sistema de oleadas con uno que otro enemigo distinto que al final resulta aburrido.    … Expand

    Bioshock infinite is the sequel that the original deserved. The world building for Columbia is just as powerful and impactful as it was for Rapture, and the character building we see with Elizabeth and Booker is something that was missing from the first. The art style is beautiful, and the DLC is just as good as the game itself. Must play!

    One of the best games I played amazing voice acting graphics gameplay and story the only negative is that in my opinion is that level design can be confusing and you sometimes don't know where to go. Other than that a masterpiece and earns a epic legendary status of what a game should be no microtransaction or lootboxes or online only.

    + World was brilliantly imagined and designed
    + Graphics were outstanding for the PS3 era
    + Dialogue was well written and expertly voice acted

    - Gameplay and gunplay felt lacking and tedious, especially compared to BioShock 2
    - Story was a bit of a convoluted mess
    - Enemies were unmemorable outside of Songbird

    Multiple dimensions and a clever scenario with a surprise around every corner make it difficult for us to explain our enthusiasm without spoiling the story. Only the extended ghost chase (literally) halfway through the game drags on a bit too long. [April 2013, p.74]
