Oh yes, Bioshock Infinite is the first person shooter, which developed by Irrational Games and published by 2K Games. If you're a huge fan of the Bioshock series since you've enjoyed the previous Bioshock games, you proberly might gets hands on with this game for PS3, X360 and PC. This gotta be the most intense and action packed FPS games on seventh generation consoles, that the developers wanted to make this game much different from the previous games. Irrational Games are best known developers behind System Shock 2 and original Bioshock are the both acclaimed games of all times. Ok'ay lets get the review started.
The story is nothing to do with the previous games, it's entirely a different storyplot with new characters and events. The story is about former Pinkerton agent Booker Dewitt been sent to the air city called Columbia to find the girl named Elizabeth, who been held on her tower. Booker has the mission to protect Elizabeth and escape from the attack of Comstock's troops. This game has absolutely stunning storytelling with stronger plots and most atmospheric cutscenes with higher quality standards to make the game even more interesting. The character in the game like Booker Dewitt is quite decent character than the protagonist from the first game and the Elizabeth is one of the best and most helpful sidekicks in the game, regarding the A.I aspects and being motivated A.I player.
The gameplay plays very well done indeed. The combat gameplay has great assisting target with perfect aiming controls, which gives you a better accurate shot with easy to kill the enemies. The weapons like pistols, shotgun, machine guns, grenade launcher, rocket launcher and more others are doing so great for combat gameplay. You can use Sky Hook as the melee attack, which you can punch them on their faces or you can use brutal finishing moves by holding the melee attack, when the skull icon is appearing on enemy's bar. Sky Hook can be used for stunts, which let's you attach and ride on the sky rail, but you can also jump on the enemies from the rail, which seems to be very cool and creative aspects for single player campaign.
You can use a Vigors as special attack, such as Bucking Bronco to attempt enemies flying, Murder of Crows as crow's attack, Shock Jockey as electric shock, Devil's kiss as fire attack, Possession to possessed enemies, Charge as the charged melee attack, Return to Sender as shield protector and Undertow as water attack are the coolest things ever on this game. You can get your weapons and Vigor upgraded from the shops to improve the player's performance or you can also get bullets for weapons, and health and salt for gaining character's status. The A.I character Elizabeth can use the lockpick to unlock the doors and safe box. She has the ability to open up tears to create cover, ammunition, and other useful objects during combat. However she can help you by passing you a money and the handy items, which she becoming a useful characters, during the missions. I say the gameplay is doing very great for combat, levels and helpful A.I characters to make the game becoming playable indeed.
