Is anyone else really excited for Bioshock Infinite?
« on: March 17, 2013, 12:40:50 AM »
This is one game I have been excited about for ages and it comes out in a little more than a week!



I'd rank Bioshock up with Quake and Half Life as one of the best FPS series ever created in the history of the universe.

Looking at that shot I am now interested in it, even if I wasn't before (is that gameplay or cut-scene?).

I have never been a fan of FPSes as I prefer to lean back, take a sip of rum, smoke (back in the day) and perhaps even post a bit online during that break in a game.  When I've player an FPS I just end up glued to the screen with an ever increasing heart-rate.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

I think that's the point.  ;D

I played the first Bioshock but now tend to stick to Lotro and Medieval Total War. I think my favorite FPS was Left4Dead. That was whacked--talk about an ever increasing heart-rate.

Back in the day, there was a mod for Half-Life called Vampire Slayer (who knows, it might still be around).  That was a heart-pounding, "Who just screamed like a little girl?  Oh, it was me.", fun game.

I can't wait... And if I ever get to play it, it will be worth that wait.

The original Fallout was the pc game I broke my cherry on back in about 1994.

That was cool. I've intentionally avoided watching videos up 'til recently b/c I didn't want to ruin the game for myself, but I have started watching them now and the game looks like it will be great.

I don't remember my first fps

Mine was Doom. Quake was already out, but I didn't have one of them new-fangled, high-falutin' "Pentium" processors all them city boys was usin', so I had to settle for Doom on my 486.

Someone needs to teach me how to post YouTube vids. Heh...

t I loved fallout.

You can put either the full URL or just the code (for your video the code is the "zvIU1e7k7Oc") between the youtube BBCode tag shown below:
Code: [Select]
[youtube][/youtube]
Also, if you're in Full Edit mode, as opposed to the Quick Edit box at the bottom of the thread, you get more BBCode buttons, one being the YouTube button.  Just copypasta the url or code into your post, highlight it, click the button, and it automagically wraps the url/code in the YouTube tags.

I don't remember my first fps

My first FPS was Heretic.  Soooo much fun.  Graduated from that to Doom and Quake (Quake 2, best of the bunch.  Grappling hook goodness)
