Hahaha i know that feel man. i didn't understand them, that was what made them so scary.
agreed. i counted a couple a weeks ago, i have 27 save files.. all completed.
not sure if that's sad, or just dedicated. or both.
They reminded me of the Scoleri Brothers in Ghostbusters 2.
coming back on here...

Sorry if this has been asked before but can I get away with playing this without playing the others first?

Not played this, but I'd imagine so entirely. They don't seem to be linked in any way. I'd recommend you do at some point though, the original is brilliant.
I've not played the others and I'm understanding it about as well as they let you understand it
Changes to often
yes, there no link to the other games to do with the story.
I didn't say anything? And I'm not going to haha.
MG ZR x2, Polo, CTR
i haven't finished it yet, but everytime i think i've sussed the twist, something else appears that makes me change my mind.
just got to the wardens office at comstock house, only need 6 more sightseers and a handful of voxophones

Excellent, bring on pay day!
Well, got this the other day and have to say it's a brilliant game. I've only just met Elizabeth but the way the game starts and the level of detail in the world is amazing. The character design is also great and I'm intrigued how the story will develop.
Only weakness so far is you can't break bottles or anything when you shoot them!! Always a bugbear of mine.

Glad I'm not the only one who tried that lol

I've only played the first 10-15 minutes so far as not had time, but already really impressed with the attention to detail. Spent a fair while just looking around.
This made me chuckle though:

I love the octopus one and upgraded to you can pull over 3 guys at a time. That in combo with a maxed out shotgun is awesome - can kill 3 guys with 1 shot. The return to sender one is good too when you upgrade to absorb enemy bullets.
Story is great too, it's been very unusual to be actually interested in the development in the same way you would be in a good film or book but keeping the game itself fun and challenging.
The interaction between De Wit and Elizabeth is great - quality voice acting and motion capture on the facial expressions.

So I finished this last night and wow...the ending was like something out of a decent sci fi film, and left me thinking about what it all meant for a couple of hours afterwards.
Spoiler below for anyone else who has finished:
What do you think the significance of going to Rapture was? I couldn't work this bit out.

I think it was to show, imo of course, an alternative reality of the same situation.
Rapture is like 50 years after is it not? Looking at this, also in an alternate reality.
Eliz, is in a from the little sisters. Songbird the big Daddys'. You can relate Booker and Comstock to the characters too.

BIG spoilers below, only look if you've finished the game. as with the quote above.
The point of it was, there's a million billion different outcomes to each and every decision we make.
Bookers decision to cleanse himself brought comstock out and in turn, lead to the whole bioshock infinite game.
But the point of showing rapture, was the fact that it isnt just booker that has a million billion different universes from his decisions, there's always a protagonist, theres always a girl to be rescued, there's always a bad guy.
It's all inevitable. but its what you do after realising this that matters!
This article in Forbes, which i think has already been linked, explains it great. http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2013/03/27/an-attempt-to-understand-bioshock-infinites-brilliant-and-bizarre-ending/

Pretty much the theory I suggested. :rasp:
Yeah this is true - to be honest though I couldn't remember the Bioshock twist so the whole Bioshock/Infinite parallels in terms of story were missed on me until I was reminded, just the obvious similarities between Elizabeth/little sisters, Columbia/Rapture, Salts/Eve and Songbird/Big Daddies.
Very clever though anyway - better than Lost!

if anyone got super into the game I've just found some amazing thing you can buy!
