Bioshock: Infinite Review



BIOSHOCK: INFINITE REVIEW


This is quite literally the best game I have ever played.

Nay, it is the best experience of my life.

I am weeping right now. Indeed, I am unaware how, from this day onward, I will be able to experience ordinary life such as this, knowing that it pales in comparison to the beauty exhibited in this game. Bioshock: Infinite has changed the way I view video games as a narrative medium, and how I view my life as a human being. It is the most perfect game ever constructed, the magnum opus of our time, and deserves a place among the works of artists like Goethe and Dante.

8/10

Update: Minor Absence

I'm in the middle of moving to another state, so updates will come even less frequently than I had originally hoped. My life has sort of been in flux for a while, but I plan on relaunching this as soon as things settle down.

What I'm kind of working on, or at least have planned:

Reviews of:

  • FULL Review of Primorida -- it deserves it
  • Ni No Kuni
  • Fire Emblem Awakening
  • Etrian Odyssey IV
  • Atelier Ayesha
I may combine several of those JRPGs into a more broad look at the sudden influx we've had recently. (Also, when did I turn into such a weeaboo?)

Possible YouTube coverage of:
  • Shattered Haven
  • Other indie/gog games in the future

I'm planning to relaunch this entire thing because it's been rather unfocused. Originally, I had planned to do more industry analysis, which will remain, but I've also become more interested in informal reviews and analysis of games. Very likely that you will see some sort of YouTube commentary along with the relaunch, because I feel that is the superior medium to do reviews of games.

Otherwise, I'll still be around and drop whatever weird industry predictions I have on this blog, so it won't be exactly dead, but I'm giving you less pretense that there will be much else for the time being.

Blizzard TCG?

I'm guessing that the Blizzard announcement today is going to be something along the lines of a TCG or Tabletop. We'll see in a few hours at PAX.

... different from out other games...
... get your hands on.

Edit: Also, it may be called Heroes of Warcraft and be something along the lines of Hero Academy/MTG: Planeswalkers.
