BioShock Infinite has won for best music (score) at this year’s BAFTA Game Awards, edging out other nominees such as Beyond: Two Souls, Super Mario 3D World, and The Last of Us.
Twinfinite: “War may never change, but the prices of rare games do!”
"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.
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.
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'.
See what a side-by-side comparison of Clockwork Revolution vs Bioshock Infinite looks like.
Hmmm not what I would of expected
Best music I think came out of this was Will the Circle be Unbroken.....oh and the Nico Vega song they used in the launch trailer :)

The acceptance by the voice actress of Elizabeth was so awkward.
Amazing music. Not my favorite of the year, but deserving, nonetheless.
Music was great and the game overall is fantastic, sad to see the team behind it being disbanded. Loved the remixes of some popular songs to, some get you thinking "have I herd that somewhere before?"
I completely agree with this. Elizabeths theme was great and the way they mixed newer music and changed them a bit to fit the times was really cool. It was a good mix of actual original soundtrack and a creative way to use licenses. All of the songs were great and really added to the world. It even set the tone sometimes especially in the one place where Elizabeth finds out the truth about who she is.
