BioShock Infinite is a fantastic achievement, there’s no real doubt about that, and as review scores roll in around the 90′s and 100′s, journalists are adamant that this is a product worth putting your money down on. One magazine, Gameplanet, said “BioShock is the most important new intellectual property of this hardware generation.” BioShock is most certainly not the most important new(?) intellectual property of this hardware generation (it uses old technology and hasn’t really revolutionized storytelling in games, it’s merely a good example of it) but it is a highly polished, and incredibly detailed gaming experience.

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'.
Personally I find that any game worth 60 dollars isn't worth it, unless it's a collector edition of some kind.
I've redboxed it and beat it in a couple days. Great game, but low relayability so I'd wait till its 25 or so to buy
i'll answer this the way others have answered. If you loved bioshock this game is very much a buy. It is short on the length side and there is no real incentive to play it once you beat it.
Linear hallway shooter, save your money
If you love great games, yes, yes you should buy it. I'm not a big fps fan myself but bs is an exception. Although if you can't afford it at the moment, I'm sure amazon will have a sale on it soon. They always do. Far cry 3 is already $30 when it was $60 just in November brand new for example.
