Alright, so I'm not getting anything in the PSN store.
Yes. I had to go to "Show All New" to get Burial at Sea Episode 1 to show up.

Can we discuss the ending? Because . . .
Elizabeth is extremely angry in this. I love it! You could tell from the start that there was a problem when she refused to call Comstock/Booker booker
I tried that and I don't see it yet.

Anyone else on PC having performance problems? I'm getting random patches of slow down just walking around as well as the sound going incredibly weird/tinny.

So........ worth $15 then?
Huh. It was a couple rows down under "Show More" in Add-Ons for me.

Just beat it.
around 2 hours and 45 mins

I was getting the slow down but no sound problems. Changed the settings to High and no problems so far. Though one of the locks I told Elizabeth to open bugged so had to reload.

Started at 1:50, finished up at 3:33 on medium. Had an enjoyable time with it, will definitely go back to clean up on achievements and explore a bit more.
About the ending,
About the ending,
I'm not sure how I feel. I mean, why wait? Could she not have taken him out at any point? What about that random stealth big daddy? Are they not also just as guilty in the eyes of the Big Daddy?
Now it appears for me. 1.6GB. Downloading 14min left.

Should I just download Chapter 1 for 15 bucks or download the Season Pass for 20? If I DL the Season Pass, do I get access to both chapters of Burial at Sea?

Season pass gets you both Episode 1 and 2, as well as the CitC DLC.
However, Episode 2 is not out until early 2014.

Season Pass. Less cost, same content.
Yes - Mac / PC launched together.

Alright, cool. Once I've downloaded the Season Pass, what do I have to do to access Burial at Sea?
ElzarTheBam

Go to the season pass store in the in game menu (DAX!) and download it from there.
Huzzah. Got the game on Xbox but it's nice to see the Mac version get quality timing.

Guys! Look at this trailer (the Burial at Sea Episode One Launch Trailer):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=k6U2tE62goc
Than look at this one (the first trailer for Bioshock)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Ymg2HzHF9-4
Do you notice anything? That guy from the first trailer is BOOKER!!!!
-same location
-same voice (well not voice but the sounds he makes when he's knocked down)
-same weapon (shotgun)
-same left hand
-same big daddy
-same clothes
-and the lost can go on
That's amazing! <3
No, but it's in the Playstation Store. Look under New and Add-Ons. You might need to go to "Show More." It'll show up free if you have the Season Pass.

They said that there were no changes to the character model, only make-up and clothes... Edit: and hair obviously.
I am getting tons of slowdown in combat at max on 670. Odd since the main game ran flawlessly.
Andrew Korenchkin

Thanks. I'm doing it for reals, now.
Just completed it and I'd say it's pretty similar to the original game. It has the same opening section with lifeless NPCs standing around waiting for you to come along so they can say a couple of lines. There's still barely any reason to explore besides money. Combat still isn't great although I did like that you have limited ammo and that there's slightly more focus on plasmids. Story is still the reason why I keep playing just like in the main game.

I seem to get the odd slowdown during loading, the same that Bioshock Infinite had. Otherwise it's a rock solid 60 FPS.
Behold the awesome power of 1950s corsetry.

Debating whether or not to get this now or pick it up during a Steam sale later. After reading the RPS review, especially this part, it made me a bit wary as it was one of my main beefs with Infinite:
That is EXACTLY how I felt about the Infinite intro, one of the most glorious and beautifully paced intros in all of gaming, superb artistry and scripting, and then, copy paste ho hum run and gun with modest samplings of story sprinkled for the rest of the game. Aside from the Elizabeth intro and the ending, almost all of the rest of the game felt like an afterthought. As someone else pointed out in another thread, I feel like the stories these worlds want to tell are better suited for a different genre, either some kind of Western RPG in the vein of a Bioware, or an adventure not dissimilar to a Telltale experience. Just maintain that atmosphere! End rant.
