To anyone who is playing infinite, are there any Rapture references? Are the games set in the same universe?

The games are set in the same universe... BioShock happened in 1960... Infinite in 1912... but there is no reference between the two games.

Rapture was build post-World War II... 1946.

As much as I'm loving Columbia thus far, I think I slightly prefer the darker and more claustrophobic Rapture.

who is the woman on your pic?? :3

That's Nana from Afterschool, quite a few kpop fans on this site.

Bought borderlands 2 on steam so can't afford it right now :s I'll probably grab it in a month or two to see what the fuss is all about and will probably end up loving it :) right now borderlands 2 is occupying me.

Columbia... the nicest place to live... so... pretty... enchant.... me... it's so wonderf.... WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT OH GOD 77, RAVENS, NUN!!!

I like Columbia more so far, because it's both a magnificent and horrid place and the more I explore it the more apparent its twisted nature becomes.

I think Bioshock is a better game and experience.

Bioshock infinites gameplay peaks are a bit higher, but imo the lows are lower. The Graphics are obviously better in infinite, but again the peaks are higher, when you first see Columbia its amazing, or go around on the rail ziplines its amazing. But indoors it lacks the intensity of the first, and there's nothing really close to the Big Daddy or Little Sisters.

The storys quite a bit worse, still a great game.

But to answer question at first glance, Columbia, mainly because thats what graphics do. But going through both, encompassing everything that rapture, and everything that columbia is, which includes the lore, and characters, Rapture is easily to me.
