Video PC Xbox 360 PS3

Spoilers ahead! The following video is the first five minutes of BioShock Infinite so you better think twice before playing it. It certainly looks great but we can only advise you to not watch it if you planned to discover the beginning of the game on March 26th.

Marvelous intro!

Love the time setting, atmosphere and the vibe somehing that Bioshock had as well.

Only thing I hope is they polished the hell out of the gunplay mechanic this time. But I will definitely play this.

I honestly don't get it why people would even watch this. With alot of games, especially this one..the intro is something special. It gives you that 'wow' feeling, element of surprise and what not. Ah well...whatever.

Infinite doesn't even have a Villan shown like A. Ryan.

I watched in an attempt to erase the less then impressive VGA footage from my mind. And it kinda did. Very similar to bioshock 1s opening. Could do with seeing some more of the main combat though.

I rather see what i buy then get screwed up .
And its not like you reading the manuscript or something. It is only the INTRO.
And what i honestly dont get is posting beneath a video you haven't watched.
What is next , writing reviews for games you haven''t played >_>.

Looks good! Some interesting dialogue there at the beginning.
The woman says a "One doesn't go into an experiment knowing one HAS failed", and then they say "He DOESN'T row".
Seems to imply that time travel is going to involved in the story, we already know that Elizabeth can manipulate time from that first gameplay demo.

I thought the quote at the beginning was interesting too "the mind will desperately try to make memories where non exist" (or something along those lines) could all be in his head?

You heard here first. Infinite is just the AAA copycat trying to reap on To The Moon laurels.

Its says underneath that quote "Barriers of trans-dimensional travel", so perhaps the beginning of the game is after Booker has traveled back in time and 'struggles' to remember what happened before, plays out the events of the game finds out that he's done it all before. BIG TWIST WOULD YOU KINDLY!

Or not.

I wouldn't really call what was displayed "spoilers". I've seen more spoilers in any given trailer.

Great stuff.

More please.

Or better yet, shut up and take my money, now!

I can understand why people will watch this because I also want to. It's an important part of the experience though for me and so I wouldn't want to ruin that for the sake of seeing it early
