      I don't know if any of the "reviewers" read this, but i hope they do. These things you write aren't reviews. They are like short blog-posts where you write down a few thoughts about the game and the general impression. This is not a review!!! I wan't to know how you rate these games... because by the looks of it, you guys just slap scores depending on how you feel once the game ends. And add a few (rather ridiculous) +/- thoughts. PLEASE! Please create a scoring system where you rate each aspect of the game seperately. 1. Sound(fx, music, dialog) 2. graphics(fx, textures, models) 3. story 4. gameplay +(and others) Each of these points should be rated from 1 to 10 based on strict criteria not impressions. (then you take the median and volia - you have score which actually has some use if compared to other games.) Yeah... you can talk about the game what you think were the best parts and so on, but that's more like an overview and shouldn't be taken as a basis while scoring a game. ************************* Bioshock:Infinite It's not a 5/5 game. It has many flaws, none of which were mentioned in this review(?). A 3.5~4/5 at best. Giving a game basically a perfect score means there's nothing to improve. Bioshock... perfect? Really? Give me a break!

      Bercilak Everyone, please take a deep breath. Then read this review on Slate.com. http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/technology/2013/04/bioshock_infinite_review_ken_levine_s_game_raises_fascinating_philosophical.html Mr. Thomsen is correct.

      I just fiinished the game and I am absolutely stunned. Had to go and read some extra info to tie up things i didnt get while playing the ending scenes. The word "game" is not enough to describe this... absolutely fantastic! Gameplay 10/10 Story 11/10 (yes I typed that right)

      The plasmid for Insect Swarm biologically doesn't make sense since the theory of spontaneous generation has long been disproven. i.e- You cannot create living matter from nonliving matter. The only way that it would make sense would be if it allows you to harbor microscopic insect eggs in the palms of your hands and, when you need to unleash them, some metabolic processes instantly hatch and eggs and mature the larvae.

      This was really really cool, however I can't help but think that this only reinforces the fact that people tend to think of women locally as opposed to globally... that is, as a bunch of disparate parts rather than a whole, singular person or concept. Still, they have the right idea in mind, and even despite having to create all these facets of Elizabeth separately it looks (even at this point, not having played the game yet) like she's shaping up to be a truly astounding character that we will relate to as a person and character, as opposed to a bundle of voicework, motion capture and animation masquerading as a human character. Just looking at the way she behaves in-game in brief shots in these vignettes or gameplay showcases, you really aren't (or at least I'm not) getting any uncomfortable, uncanny valley vibes whatsoever... which is really, really awesome. If anything, we already know such a character can be done, even if it's a female character... we have plenty of proof of this in Alyx Vance. Technically, Alyx seems quite crude in comparison to what's on display here, but even if so many years ago a character as relatable and affecting as her was possible, I'm very excited to see just how much better Levine's team can do now with Elizabeth. And it's only like... ZOMG!!! FIVE DAYS!!!!!!!!11!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

      That's one effective teaser. Reminds me of Bulletstorm, maybe it's the color palette. One gripe: usually I'm not one to complain about tube overdrive, but I think they should have coupled the trailer with more era-appropriate music.

      Levine's said in interviews that she actually just changes her look over the course of the game. That we're more likely to assume it's old footage mixed with new than the characters do basic things like mix up their wardrobes and hair says something about video games, eh?
