I hear good stuff about that game. Have fun. It come with the original too? Nicee!

I recently got Sim City for $40, and EA gave me 2 free games with it (Dead Space 3, and Need For Speed Most Wanted 2012). You see why I'm getting jaded with games. They just throw them at you so you have no choice but to start taking them for granted, or get tired of them.

BioShock is awesome so far; played it for like 3 hours last night before I got tired. Honestly it's one of the prettier games I think I've ever played graphically. The only thing I don't care for is that ADS is used by pushing the right stick in, and anyone who's ever played a FPS will tell you that L1 is better for that on console.

Battles are cool, the game plays fast, and the melee attacks are absolutely GRUESOME. OH YEAH WELL THIS CLAW THING LOOKS MORE APPROPRIATE DIGGING INTO YOUR FACE.

I'd say pick it up if you didn't already. I realize I haven't played it much but the story itself is awesome so far and I'm only 3 minutes in.

I have Dead Space 3 and I didn't even finish it yet. At some point I'll run through it but it just never had me. I'm not sure why I don't find that game too appealing but it's basically the same problem I had with ME3, just not as good as I'd always heard. To be fair though, my friend let me borrow his copy of Suikoden 2 for PS1 so I stopped Dead Space almost entirely once I started that.

Also, I heard about the SimCity thing. If you activated before March 18 they'd give you two free games because apparently there was a Diablo3'ish launch for the game where no one was able to get on at all and people were SUPER pissed (EA's CEO has since stepped down). Maybe I just don't like EA as much as I'd think? They make all the games I'm bitching about.

Someone got Bioshock Infinite running on Playstation Vita (handheld system). http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... hok#t=135s

Yeah the game looks very perdy. Bioshock Infinite looks like a cousin to Dishonored in style ha. I'll get it soon. I'm surprised companies are getting away with charging $60 for PC games. Just wait 1 week and it's $40 and comes with a free game lolz.

Sim City was a wreck, I saw an opportunity and took it. Glad I did, so far so good for me so far. I haven't ran into problems yet other than the city area is small. I got Dead Space 3 because it was the most recent game, and it looks nice graphically. Still need to beat Dead Space 2 but them going back to the Dead Space 1 ship was too erie/creepy for me to play for some reason. Got need for speed because I like karz.

Despite all the initial bitching about it, Vita seems to be coming into its own late (maybe because they cut the price tag in Japan).

Speaking of price drops; via Kotaku
PC

Green Man Gaming is still offering 15$ credit or $14 cash back with a purchase of the game, which is crazy for a Game of the Year frontrunner that came out today. GMG was our best pre-order option and remains our best day one option. Plus, Steam DRM.

Playstation 3

The Playstation Store is still running their March promotion: spend $50 or more to get $10. Infinite is $60, so you see where we're going with this. Plus, no shipping costs.

Xbox 360

Rakuten has Bioshock: Infinite for on sale for $55.99 with free shipping. Far from instant gratification, but $4 goes a long way in the Steam Indie Spring Sale.
Turns out you don't have to wait a week to save $15!

Definitely worth picking up so far in my opinion.

It's acting like a WiiU controller. The PS3 is doing the work, the PSV is controlling it and receiving the video from the PS3. You can also play it from work while the PS3 is at home, but you need fast internet.

Ok this game looks amazing. I'm not sure if the console version gets the kind of shaders and effects that appear on the PC but it's just down right awesome looking. I thought I was taking pictures but they werent saving. Someone managed to mod the camera and freely move around the world in the opening bits of Bioshock Infinite.

Also just as i was thinking that it's cool to be able to explore in a environment that's influenced by olden times as a white dude lol. Then they asked me to throw a ball at a black lady surrounded by cutout blackface monkeys or something :(. Way to ruin my good time game. Too bad they didn't let me throw the ball at the guy before stopping me.

It looks exactly like that. First screen is like 5 minutes into the game or so.
