Bioshock Infinite Thread V3 Booker DeWitt in Wonderland

[QUOTE=SirVerbose;40052963]I have to say, this game really blew the first two games out of the water.
Pun intended.[/QUOTE]

Graphically, It did blow them out of the water quite a bit.
Though I felt as if the game itself was missing something but I can't quite place a finger on it. Or it might just be me still in shock over the whole ending part of the game.

[QUOTE=HoodedSniper;40053021]It blew 2 out of the water but that wasnt hard at all.

But I still think 1 was the better game.

Infinite was really close but not close to blowing them away.

System Shock 2 still has by far the best writing out of all the shock games also.[/QUOTE]
Hard mode is a decent challenge, the patriots gave me quite a heckling.

How are my screenshots of Infinite?

[QUOTE=Spot of Tea;40052997]Wow I just remembered [sp]the 2 people in the boat taking you to the lighthouse are the lucete twins[/sp][/QUOTE]

[sp]Because of an event that happens right after the beginning of the game, I'm entirely convinced they're not twins, but the same person from different worlds.[/sp]

Anyway. Kind of figured the game didn't have any real meaningful choices, still very good and had some nice moments [sp]like that songbird that shows up right behind you, my heart exploded and rebuilt again out of shock.[/sp] I only put six hours in total and i don't plan on replaying but i feel like i got my moneys worth, bundling in xcom:EU is the icing on the cake.

[sp]I'm pretty sure in one of the voxophones, she says that her "brother" is really just her from another tear, I'm not done the game so I may or may not be right on this[/sp]

[sp]I am pretty sure you are right on that in ways since I found an audio log in one of the labs mentioning the girl version looking for her brother from another realm/rip. Possibly he could have died an early age and vice versa in his world and then they just eventually stuck together. [/sp]

Also, do those [sp] Neck bands change anything in the story? I picked the cage but everything still seemed fine.[/sp]

[Mr. Agree]

Fuck sake, hardly into the game and jonoporter tells me about [SP]parallel universe[/SP] or something. Hate inconsiderate people.

[escher]

I got a glitch where Elizabeth just got stuck on a skyline and hung there until I left the area.

[QUOTE=GussGriswold;40052718]I wonder how they're going to tie in the DLC...[/QUOTE]

Website says it's supposed to be a completely different story, with new characters

[sp]can someone explain the branding on bookers hand, I believe I missed that part[/sp]

[sp]Pretty sure they're twins because 1) there is no allusion to that and 2) they refer to each other as brother and sister all the time in their audio tapes.[/sp]

A friend of mine told me that it stood for
[sp]Annabelle DeWitt[/sp]

[sp]though I'm not sure why he branded himself either[/sp]
[sp] damn it someone else answered before me ): [/sp]

[sp]The AD stands for Annabelle DeWitt. He did it as a form of penance after his regrets[/sp]

Happened with me, too. It was weird.

I think it was during one of the [sp]tears where Vox Populi were praising Booker as a martyr. If that happens again later, it was the first time it happened.[/sp]

Alright, time to buy the season pass

[HyperVyper]

A youtube comment just spoiled that [sp]Elizabeth is your daughter[/sp] for me.

[The-Spy]

This[B](EXTREME SPOILER)[/B] just makes me extremely sad: [sp] "Due to the fact Booker (and therefore Comstock) is dead, the cycle has ended. Because of this, the events of Bioshock, Bioshock 2, and Bioshock Infinite are now cancelled out completely, due to the fact the time loop never existed." [/sp]

why would [sp] Bioshock + Bioshock 2 be cancelled from their own universe though? Did the story of Rapture play a part in any of it? Or did the loop's destruction destroy all universes except the one original one?[/sp]

[Zinayzen]

Does this ever become sandbox-y? I could have some real fun with this skyhook...

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;40053207]Does this ever become sandbox-y? I could have some real fun with this skyhook...[/QUOTE]
All the arenas are pretty much a sandbox with tons of verticality and mobility. It's really fun to jump off a skyrail grind someones face in then jump away before his friend even realises theres something wrong.

Also how can Booker jump 30 feet into the air to grab onto a freight hook

[Zinayzen]

fantastic!

fuck this game is awesome. more FPS-y than the original, though

[Pvt. Martin]

But [sp]Rapture, Jack Ryan, Delta, and Eleanor have no effect whatsoever in the Columbia realm. You only go to rapture once in the whole game because Elizabeth just can.[/sp]

That's from the wiki and it also confuses me. [sp]Nothing is mentioned about Rapture in Infinite other than to one of it's permutations through a tear. Pardon my stupidity, but can't Andrew Ryan still just build the city in all the other universes?[/sp]

[LordMoldyButt]

Do upgrades to guns show on the gun?

I played on normal, wasn't going to play hard-mode only to get stomped and get stuck at some part and miss the story.

It's magnetized.

[Pvt. Martin]

Therefore [sp]The Rapture universe is still around and kicking.[/sp]

Why the fuck did you read that terrible wiki post, because thats where that quote comes from and its not true.

[sp]Rapture was a fan service more than anything and sort of used to prove a point, that universes are connected and Rapture is the columbia of that world, but booker dying or whatever has no effect on it. [/sp]

if his skyhook/freight hooks were that powerfully magnetised it would be pulling metal sheets off of fucking rooftops
