Seems a bit premature to have so much coverage when the game is still two years out.
This is the cover I got.

I got that one too.

I absolutely cannot wait for this game. Having just finished Bioshock 2 and the d/l content I'm going thru withdraws. It's such a kickass atmosphere... the only part that bummed me out is the MP.
I'm not sure this type of game even needs MP... but if you're going to do it, it's gotta be executed better than the garbage I witnessed.

I might pick up the other two copies, but I can get them for free from one of my local Gamestop's.

2012 is such a long time away but the game looks like it could top the first one.

Re: Bioshock: Infinite

That game footage is sheer brilliance. The fact they have 2 years to refine gameplay and make sure things are perfect really makes me excited for the game.

Jesus Christ, that footage was fucking phenomenal!! Is it too early to call this the game of the century?

Re: Bioshock: Infinite

2012? that's such a disappointment.

The gameplay footage is fucking phenomenal. I want to play now. Not 1.5 years from now This shouldn't even be called "Bioshock".

Seriously... if that's really in-engine footage, what's the holdup? Winter 2011 should be do-able.

I'd take a 2011 release but for them to show that to us and make us wait until 2012 is criminal.

Re: Bioshock: Infinite

the gameplay video was freaking amazing. The only thing that bugs me visually is the clouds. They look pretty blah, or a game taking place in the sky. It would be sweet looking if they were big white puffy clouds that would give some depth to the sky

Is that the same gameplay that's on the Xbox dashboard?

Re: Bioshock: Infinite

Vid was awesome and those mags look great!

I dig the whole 'racism' topic they look to be covering... but lets see... the intro had NO caricature of a black person. Do they get a free pass now in everything? The jew, irish, and mexican ones were pretty bad/offensive. Its pretty shitty they get everyone else except the heavily caricatured big lipped, slouched over, slow, lazy depiction from the 30s

Yeeee-aaaaah ooookaaaay....

Anyway, the Xenophobia depicted here makes sense for the near turn of the century setting.
