BioShock Infinite: The Complete Edition
Included in BioShock: The Collection. Also available as standalone.
In BioShock Infinite the player becomes detective Booker DeWitt who is forced to find a young woman Elizabeth to pay off his debts. She is held captive in the floating city of Columbia in alternate version of 1912. During his travels Booker encounters different factions within the city who are battling one another. The Founders want Columbia to remain a city only for pure Americans while the Vox Populi think the city should be available to anyone. The setting is built around the idea of exceptionalism with a strong religious doctrine and open racism. Elizabeth is a key piece within this conflict and has a mysterious origin including her powers to cause tears in the fabric of space-time, exposing parallel universes. Booker and Elizabeth remain together most of the game and she acts on her own. She does not need to be defended, tosses ammo and silver eagle coins to Booker and can be asked to pick locks. They are hunted down by the spiritual leader Comstock and his troops, along with the giant mechanical Songbird.
The Xbox One and PS4 versions have all DLC included.
Comments
Really good, and it's a nice way to experience Mother 1 and 2, but the port itself has some problems. Especially regarding the music, which is kinda weak here and doesn't convey the games' atmospheres properly (Especially Mother 2).
Yeah, there are some problems regarding the gameplay, especially the huge ammount of grinding, but still, this game is of amazing quality! The worldbuilding, the themes and the overall story of the game are ahead of it's time, and the way it conveys it's story is truly amazing.
I could spend countless hours explaining why this is, for me, not only the best video game ever, but a truly timeless work of art. A fantastic, multilayered, thought provoking story that completely destroyed me inside, while at the same time made me feel happy.
One of the most beautiful and unique games ever made, you can see all the passion put into this game while playing. It's a beautiful game, with an unique charm and an amazing message. Itoi is a true genius.
