We have a thread for Infinite but not the first. I'm about to replay through for the first time in ages and Wikey/KC recently got it so it deserves one
Gonna give the new remastered version a shot even tho I hear it's not the best for everyone
I'll spoiler tag my shit since we have newbies playing soon | |

I've been meaning to replay it and play #2 for the first time, might as well follow your lead.
What's the difference between the remastered and the other one? | |

Just updated visuals. Jacob said it was a bit buggy for him and I read that it didn't run for some people whatsoever, but I just started and it runs perfectly fine and looks really great | |

I think I'll play a location or two a night. Played the intro and Medical Pavillion. I won't spoil any future knowledge I have of how things turn out in the game, if I do I'll be sure to clearly label it with spoiler tags. Most of my tags should just be up to that point in the game. Don't click this one until you finish the Medical Pavillion

I'm sure it's because it's remastered but this game doesn't appear to have aged a day. It looks so good. The aesthetic of Rapture and level design and the propaganda everywhere is amazing
Audio tapes are my favorite feature. I love when they're found on a body and tell a mini story of how someone ended up there. The saddest one so far was the girl who was wounded in the New Years Eve party massacre and her second audio tape was her all excited that Steinman was gonna fix her, but if you flip over her corpse you'll see that her face is still hideously scared. Really cool that you'd only catch that if you whack at her corpse with your wrench to flip her over
Steinman stuff was fucked, I love the bloody messages everywhere and the audio tape when he starts cutting into the patient's face to the nurse's horror. The fight was easy, I'm playing on medium so I can blast through relatively quickly. Only at one point did I start running pretty low on medkits/eve and money. Big Daddy fight was about as tough as I remember it being. I love whenever a Big Daddy/Little Sister come roaming through, they're so great
Some of the opening shit was spo0o0o0ky, like the lady leaning over the empty baby carriage and the doctor that vanishes while you're watching his shadow. And that dude who pops up directly behind you at one point when you grab a plasmid, fuck that guy
After all these years my favorite part of the game is still Jack deciding to just plunge the odd looking vial of liquid into his vein without a second thought |

The first game is so much fun.
I don't care much for the second one at all, though. | |

might replay this series soon. Still never touched BioShock 2 but I hear it's worth playing for the Minerva's Den DLC alone. And I've still only played this one once
Has the remastered been worth it so far Curt? I've seen some reviews on Steam that mention save files getting corrupted midway through the game which makes me VRY wary | |

I just got it as well and haven’t played any of the games. I’ll need to play it through with you as well |

It’s hard to tell without comparing it to the original on PC but I’d say definitely worth it so far. Looks and runs really great. If I lost my save file I’d be pissed tho | |

Again, I haven’t seen a single sign of any of this. They said they fixed issues with updates so it’s very possible it was taken care of by now, feels like it was | |

I've heard that they're continuing the series in the future too. Which I'm wary of because 2k is doing it on their own now and the creative director quit last year (or two years ago, I don't remember) So I'm afraid it'll be a completely different feel.
I want to replay the original but I don't have it on my PS4. | |

That’s a shame, it’d be nothing without Ken Levine
Irrational Games shut down but was basically rebranded recently as Ghost Story Games led by Levine. Their first game is being worked on and sounds super promising, I’m excited
Also found out that Irrational/Ghost story is based a town over from me. They made all of Bioshock right down the STREET! I wanna work there with 0 experience | |
