BioShock Infinite: 15 Minutes of Gameplay Footage

[Mr. Analog]

Some interesting stuff shown off here notably the implication of parallel universes and time travel. Using the rails tactically looks a little complicated if not fun. One thing that I found that kinda got tiring real fast was the dialogue, I don't mind if they develop stories and characters in game but it seems like Booker never shuts up (also the speech patterns used seem very video-gamey). I'm also not happy with Elizabeth becoming the typical damsel in distress / plot macguffin. I really thought having an AI with cool but limited powers was a great idea, but it seems like much of the game is going to revolve around finding and losing her repeatedly.

Anyway, check it out!

I saw that this morning, as well as an article about how boring and clich?d the box art is going to be:

I saw that this morning, as well as an article about how the box art is going to be:

in a word, GENERIC -- cf. http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/143pkn/bioshock_infinite_box_art_revealed/c79lqcq ...

How... Generic...
You have a game involving floating islands, mechanical creatures of all shapes and sizes, the existance of realityshifting and timebending magic and sky-ziplines. And the best you can come up with is a Generic, Grizzled, White Protagonist that you can't even see, because it's First Person, holding a generic shotgun over his shoulder.
Bonus Extra-Generic-Points: Lenseflare from the sun, some sort of particle effect and a flaming flag.

[Mr. Analog]

Exactly, you have all sorts of crazy ass stuff in the game and what's on the cover? Nathan Drake holding a shotgun...

Yes I did a double take when I saw it.

Thankfully the trailer actually looks good.
