All This Talk Of BioShock Infinite Could Ruin The Magic

"Wait, obviously I don’t mean what it seems I mean. Although when you see what I actually mean, despite what it seems, my meaning seems to fit." - Jake Woolf (Gaming Like A Sir Columnist)

I might have to stay off N4G for a while becuase all of these Bioshock Ending articles are gonna ruin it for me.

coolbeans4040d ago (Edited 4040d ago )

Haha I know what you mean, I caught a few snippets of themes/plot devices in the ending already. Most n4g users have been doing a great job with SPOILER warnings though (for the few articles I've glanced at) and I'm thankful for that.

die_fiend4040d ago

You're lucky your non-comment there hasn't made me ruin it for u now. Keep your surfing habits to yourself, that's not what the comments section is for

Actually I looked up the ending to get a better grasp on what I was going in to since I heard it was confusing as hell. After understanding parts of it I enjoyed the game better at the end since I had a clear understanding of what was going on.

die_fiend4040d ago

What?! You read the ending before you got to it? Isn't the idea that you're meant to work it out yourself? Or at least try? You sir are the weakest gamer I've come across. Why would someone spoil one of the greatest stories in gaming?!

Thatguy-3104040d ago

Doesn't apply only for games but also to movies and at times books. There is a difference from knowing and experiencing yourself. For me it's all about the experience.

die_fiend4040d ago

Wow. So u read about film endings before them? The experience is ruined when you know what's going to happen. But I'm guessing you can't be helped.

Your pic is Uncharted, did u look up the endings of those too? Cos those stories are much more one dimensional

Thatguy-3104040d ago

Didnt look them up but I eventually went through them since I'm in forums most of the times. Actually knowing what happens make me purchase the game even more to see how things play out. Like I said the experience is still there since it plays out differently than what I imagine in my head when I read about them.

die_fiend4040d ago

Ok but next time one of the greatest stories in gaming comes out, try using your brain and you might find that you appreciate it a lot more if you haven't spoilt the whole experience

reviewers should be vague in there descriptions. Like saying its an amazing world and a joy to play. Both true of BI.

Top 10 Rarest Xbox 360 Games That Are Worth a Fortune

"And lastly, famous Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling helped to create the action-RPG’s setting. What’s really fascinating, though, is that the game was partially financed by taxpayers from Rhode Island (which allegedly lost the state millions of dollars). Yikes!"

1. Now infamous Schilling
2. No allegedly, it did. And they couldn't pay it back.
3. What really lost the money wasn't the SP release but the MMO they were working on. This was supposed to be an introduction into the MMO world.

I hate counting limited editions for these lists. I mean, they're made to be rare and expensive. It's far more interesting to hear about the NCAAs (even if most people know that one already) and the El Chavos than some massive hit that came with a $200 statue at retail.

gamerz271d ago

Me too. Here's the best I can do:

El Chavo Kart $90.14
NCAA Football 14 $87.72
Spiderman: Edge of Time $75.94
Spiderman Web of Shadows $75.09
Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions $67.76

Christopher270d ago

Wow, El Chavo Kart is not at all what I expected by the name. 100% looks like a Sackboy Kart game.

Soy270d ago

It's so odd that so many Spider-Man games are seemingly given lower print runs, even if they're not the best games.

jznrpg271d ago (Edited 271d ago )

Most Xbox games don’t hold as much value compared to other systems. Kameo, Blue Dragon, Last Remnant , and a handful or 2 of other games that I kept.

sadraiden270d ago

Fallout 3 and Bioshock Infinite are the rarest games of all time.

8 Best Games Set In A Multiverse

One of the biggest TV and movie tropes in the last decade has been the multiverse, the idea of exploring multiple dimensions to uncover alternate versions of existing ideas. From both a business and creative perspective, it makes sense why established franchises are shaking things up in this way.

However, there aren't many video games latching on to this trend, as rendering multiple worlds in real-time is a difficult feat and the medium is relatively young in comparison to its contemporaries, making crossover opportunities more difficult. Still, there are a few great titles that manage enough to overcome these challenges, and here are some of the best examples.

While I love someone mentioning Planescape, not really multiverse. Planes and dimensions, yes. But, they are typically their own locations and are very rarely tied to another 'verse' let alone another plane. The only things that are directly tied are the ethereal and material planes. Otherwise, they are dimensions created of their own design and goals by the creator/owner and not comprised of 'their own version of another dimension'.
