So far, I don't think Bioshock Infinite is that good.

I Agree: I'm playing just to see the end. 50 27.93%
 
I Don't Agree: Keep play... 53 29.61%
 
Haven't played it yet. 76 42.46%
 
Total:179

I'm loving it!
Also can someone tell me how far in I am? Basically SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!! (The revolution has started and I just fought that massive thing with huge hands) SPOILERS!!! Sorry can't hide the text I'm on mobile.
Have I got long left?

I've never really liked Bioshock, probably the most overrated game series this generation in my opinion. I watched my step brother play most of Infinite this week and it seemed better than the first two games.

OK, cool, but you take all the fun out of the game if you just go around looking for the best/cheesiest way to beat the game. I'm sure you can do the same thing or use the similar tatics with BI, but what's the fun in that?

When I took down a Big Daddy/Sister, I did all shorts of things in preparation and died many times - it was fun. Nothing, so far, in BI gives the same thrill and excitement.

Ultimately, all of the criticisms your laying at BS2 can also be said about BI, e.g. it being linear. So I fail to see what makes BI that great a game. Anyways, thanks for the opinion and the tips

It is not that I used the chepesiest way to kill everything... it is because you start with the Drill and I never needed to use other weapon lol... so everytime I face a big ememy I just use Drill... I always save before face a Big Daddy / Big Sister then I try the weapon I have to see how is the best to kill it and make my strategy... the Drill is just too overpowerwed to not be used for any enemy.

How I kill the first time the Brutal? Just Dillzed it... there is no reation... the hardest part is to get close to the enemy (ok that is not that hard lol).

Now when I played BioShock everytime I will face a Big Daddy I have trouble because I never have sufficient ammo to use the best weapon or so much health to face to face battle.

I remember one time I had no money, no health (less than 1/4), no ammo to kill a Big Daddy, etc... the worst possible situation... but I saved closed to the Big Daddy and I said to me that I will not leave this Big Daddy alive... it killed me 15 times when I saw some gas cylinder in the other room... so what I did was get all the gas cylinder and put it close to the Big Daddy closing their path to get me... wait it get near and just explred everything... instant kill... I was so happy.

But the circuntances in BioShock makes this happen... in BioShock 2 not because the Drill is almost infinite... just spent you money when needs to refil the fuel.

Again I never played any BioShock in easy or normal... I always start may games in hardest difficult... I played Cross Edge first time in Hard without the helped itens and lvls that you get if you play in normal and after finish start a NG+ in hard... it was so painful but I finished it.



Bioshock 2.. ahead of Bioshock 1? Yikes.

Anyways YES imho Infinite really is "that" good. 2nd best game this generation only behind the original Bioshock imho.



I haven't played Infinite yet but it looked good from the videos i've seen. Plus i liked the first 2, so i probably will enjoy it when i get to it

I'ts a great game but overated by some.

If you say it's a excelent game, fine, but when ppl say it's the best FPS of all time or the best game of the generation, they are overating it.

I couldn't play bioshock 1 for more then an hour and I gave up. I gave infinite a shot and boy it's one of my favorite games this gen. It's right up there with UC2/3. I need to give bioshock 1 a shot again during summer. It's a great experience from the beginning to the end and I can't wait to platinum it.

This is one of my many issues with the game, i.e. you cannot tell where the hell you are, or at what stage, level, world, or warp zone. I swear if you traverse back through the game you wouldn't be able to tell if you're on the second or the penultimate stage. Just keep press up on the left stick friend, it must end at some point.

Are you serious about this?

I wonder if you play BS2 first, whether BS1 would be that great? BS1 had the wow factor obviously because it was the first in the series, but I maitain that BS2 was more polished so was a better game in some respect. Hope you give the first game another chance..
