Hey everyone,

I'm back again this time with the next part in the "Ultra Late" edition of "Best of 2012" this time covering the best of TV & movies in 2012.

I first talk about the Top 5 TV series of 2012 and their highlight moments of their respective seasons. I then move onto movies selecting my Top 5 movies from a deserving list of candidates.

Obviously the next blog in the "Best of 2012" series will follow soon with "Game of the Year 2012" -- preferably next week if things go to plan and I end up finishing Mark of the Ninja and playing a little bit more of Borderlands 2. 

Until then,take care.

P.S: I also finished BioShock Infinite. Don't recall when a game of this magnitude of hype lived upto its expectation. Excellent game. Not flawless, it has its' shortcomings but it is such a subtle and refined exercise in first-person narration that it truly feels like a step forward from BioShock in every manner possible.

Columbia is not as enchanting as Rapture but it slowly grows onto you. It has more depth and history to it than Rapture which works in its favour. Elizabeth is a great AI partner and something all devs need to look at whenever they design friendly AIs from now on.

The gameplay is much improved. Rapture felt restricting(reasonably so) but Infinite's shooting is chaotic with no space for breathers. Skylines make the wide-open battlefields crazier and Vigors while mostly identical in methods are varied enough in their purpose to not feel like Plasmids. Another good thing is the shooting never feels excessive. That is something that needs to be mentioned as a lot of shooters feel the need to keep players constantly occupied. Infinite is happy to divide time between exploration and shooting.

Also, while I won't spoil anything....all I can say is DAT' ENDING! I don't recall a game ending keeping me awake. Spec Ops did it but that gave me nightmares. This kept me awake tossing and turning. Don't know which is worse, but Infinite is seemingly having a deeper effect since it deals with a concept I was fascinated with back in my high-school physics class. :D

I'll do a proper review of it soon but for now I can say that it's a must-play. Another positive hope for the FPS genre.
