It’s eerie to waltz around a world I’ve seen in trailers on and off since 2011. Eerie and awe-inspiring. Columbia is another City 17; avid gamers will hopefully feel happy to hear me draw the comparison.
There’s been so much said about the game, both from two years’ worth of previews and advance (groan) exclusive reviews over the past week. I won’t waste your time with fluff; here are some (spoiler-free) thoughts from my five-hour foray into Columbia so far.
Now that I have finally expunged Dead Space 3 from my gaming gape, it is time for me to look forward to BioShock Infinite. Hopefully it’ll be everything that I hoped it will be. I cannot handle another gaming disappointment so soon, especially from a game that I have been anticipating for so long. One of the reasons my wait has apparently drawn on so interminably, however, is because the game itself has been generating massive amounts of content.
I’m not watching this. However, I’m presenting you with the opportunity. Do you dare to spoil?
Yeah, I went there. As much as I want to be hyped for the fucking BioShock Infinite Omega Level editions, I can’t get there. People are leaving that game’s development team like it’s a flame-covered donkey ride in the middle of the ocean. What is that, exactly? Fuck you! I don’t know. Anyways, so yeah. Buy these. At your own risk.
The final heavy hitter in BioShock: Infinite has been revealed, and it is my favorite to date. Levine and company have dropped the Siren on our asses, a enemy that’s guaranteed to turn me into a damage sponge as I try and vain to take her out.
Ken Levine and the rest of the team have revealed BioShock: Infinite‘s third heavy hitter: the Boys of Silence. A creepy deformed roaming analog of the original’s camera system. Fucking awesome.

Rad. Irrational has introduced the first in a line of “heavy hitter” baddies for BioShock Infinite. This wandering death machine is none other than a George Washington Terminator.

BioShock Infinite is one title among seeming zillions that I’m sweating this calendar year. Now there’s been an official date of release dropped for the title, and it’s smack-dab in the middle of October. October? More like Rocktober! LOL.
I can’t remember the final boss in BioShock, though I can remember the conflict with Andrew Ryan. This is clearly a problem, and one that Ken Levine is all too aware of. This is a good thing. Levine recently spoke to Joystiq about the shitty finale in the original BioShock, and how they’re handling the conclusion to Infinite.

The Tokyo Game Show got itself a ‘new’ BioShock Infinite trailer that interweaves pure gaming porn with footage we’ve seen before and ladles on top of it some new segments. I need this game. What are you waiting for?
