Bioshock Infinite I have been waitinng to talk about this game for a really long time, since i beat the game actually. And with that being said, I will maybe give off minor spoilers so enter at your own caution......

So Bioshock Infinite is everythinng I can possibly want in a video game. Actually, lets just call it an interactive medium, because there are part of Bioshock Infinite that aren't fun at all. But it is an engrossing and engaging experience the whole way through. The game has both a great story and a fantastic narrative. The story is told with great pacing, and the world is as much beautiful as it is a mystery. 

Actually lets talk about the world a little bit. Columbia is a beautiful world. If anyone has ever played the underrated game Baten Kaitos: Eternal wings and the Lost Ocean, Bioshock Infinite borrow a bit of the sky elements from that, but yet at the game time, it is incredibly unique to the Infinite universe. Bioshock Infinite has its own textures and lighting, with a heavy emphesis on a colourful cartoony colours. Because of the colour, it gives off a very, fair-tale feel to the world. It allows for the world of Columbia to unravel around the player. And because the main character, Booker Dewitt not being from the world, it gives it a greater sense of exploration. When you first land on Columbia and explore for a little bit, it gives off a very atmosphereic feel as well, the idea of being in a massive world, larger than yourself. These are all things on the surface of Bioshock Infinite's world. But digging deep into the mysteries of Columbia is where the gameplay excels.

My biggest problem with first-person shooters, and even alot of third person shooters, the emphesis on world is completly non-exsistent. I have played my fair share of shooting games that fail epically in this area, I am sure you can come up with your own examples. But a game like Bioshock Infinite, Half Life 2 Resident Evil 4 Metroid Prime and even Halo, all had the world that emmersed you, and part of the reason why they were so successful. Because the player was investing in a world, and there was time, exploration, and even lore to be found in the world that was given.

Thats all I mainly wanted to talk about with Bioshock Infinite, I love the world of it, perfect game, definatly should pick it up if you havent already
