So what's allowed to be posted on youtube? My cousin got it early in the post and we're loving the music from the credits. Would something unsavory happen if he uploaded the audio from that on youtube?
I haven't got mine yet.
Thanks mate, guess I'll be safe enough to buy in

Thanks for the confirmation. 1999 mode it is... Maybe. Hopefully there's more to it then what ign stated... or this mode can go fuck itself.

Any videos of the beginning? I saw the immediate start in the PR videos, but I'd like to see a little more.

I am surprised GMG has been so ill prepared for this. Never has there site been such a clusterfuck, its pretty unacceptable that many people can't even look at their game keys.

Anyone wanna give me a run down of what IGN said 1999 mode is? Don't bother linking their site, this comp won't open it.
He apologized, it wasn't even that much of a strong joke, to me the story ended. What follows are sites fishing for links.
When in doubt, don't joke about stuff that not few people associates with the one of the worse moments of their lives or with one of their biggest fears every time they go out, but again, he realized the joke was off and apologized. To me, that's it.

They're hard at work, I see. Like 10 minutes after the video showed up in search.

IGN said:
Ken said it wouldn't be simply adjusting sliders....and yet. I still have some hope that ign is being ign, but I dunno..
Take 2 Games? Bizarre.
I wouldn't risk posting anything until Tuesday.

The official site has a full description of 1999 mode, I would hope it is still accurate.

Bah. Wish it wasn't as blunt as that since it's fans giving word of mouth. The music is kicking ass and is not spoiler-ish. It must be hummed incessantly before Tuesday, not after. I'll PM fartofwar and oneletter.
Hmm, I'll probably end up doing it just because I always have to go for that all-in experience.....but seems kind of lame for all this hype.

Take Two is the parent company of 2K Games. Take Two also owns Rockstar.

Take Two is even taking down crappy 20 second videos of the menu. Insane.
Yeah, I know, but 'Take 2 Games' isn't a thing as far as I know. I just thought the fact it didn't use either legal name was strange.

PLOT TWIST!
All along you thought 2K Games was 2K Games, when in reality it's...
Take 2 Games.

I believe 1999 mode requires specialization. E.G. Shotguns would only be effective if you've specialized in that weapon type. From what I've read, it sounds like it's a slightly more RPG-like "you can't have your cake and eat it too" mode where you can't max out everything.

As someone who always thought the first BioShock was wholly overrated... Infinite is good. It's really good. I don't want to jump the gun and lavish the game in heaps of praise off the bat (I haven't even met Liz yet - just turned up at
), but thus far it is undoubtedly excellent stuff. Columbia is the star of the show, just like Rapture was in BioShock. The game is a visual extravaganza because of its unique setting, and it's better than Rapture because you're not just roaming around in the decrepit aftermath of a once functioning society. Columbia is living, breathing, thriving and it's all the better for it. Exploration is a pure joy. And I happen to think the game looks gorgeous on the PS3 too, for the most part.
Just to nitpick, when things suddenly get violent for the first time, the experience is really jarring. Very very early spoilers, but
Such an abrupt transition. Nowhere near a big deal, but it did spoil the mood a bit for me.
Anyway, really liking it. Hope it continues to deliver.

Just to nitpick, when things suddenly get violent for the first time, the experience is really jarring. Very very early spoilers, but
during the beginning segment of the game you spend a good deal of time as DeWitt just gawping at this floating city and interacting with its residents and engaging in some fairground attractions, and it's pleasant stuff. Then you're fingered as the False Shepherd and incur the wrath of the police force, which results in DeWitt instantly indulging in some ultra-violence by introducing a police officer's face to a sky hook. I'm pretty desensitised to video game violence by now, but that was so needlessly gruesome it made me roll my eyes and think "ugh... video games".
Anyway, really liking it. Hope it continues to deliver.

I must have missed it. Is there a trailer in particular that has it? I'm curious, all the sudden.
Not yet.

I forgot one bad thing about Bioshock Infinite: unskippable logos. Jesus Christ.

Are you playing/Have you played the game? Because I'm talking about it happening in the context of the whole thing. It just felt really jarring and needless to me.

Same here. Had the same feeling in Tomb Raider. I'm not what the exact reason why the devs decide to do such a thing.

I know with some games, like Dishonored, you can move/delete the movie files from the game files and solve that annoyance.

From the trailer, but from the beginning to that scene... yeesh. Maybe it's for a feeling of dissonance. If so, bravo.
Like it wrecked the flow?
Direct link to scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=mXlICqhnjco#t=58s
It's from the fan-made trailer that guy posted before, but all he did was re-cut existing trailer footage.

How many of those fake PBS documentary ads are there? Just the two?
ThaiGrocer

They were hinting to more. Hopefully they didn't stop due to some kind of expectation to internet reaction.
Fixed that, it's annoying as fuck. The first thing I do for any UE game is delete all the logo cutscenes from the hard drive, or rename them. By I like to delete them out of disdain.
You may be right about that, I'm not playing the game until it unlocks on Steam. I thought you were just talking about the gore itself.

Aw man, those are the only ads I've watched. Lol.
I'm actually planning on showing my 65 year old hippie dad who still uses aol mail bioshock infinite. Every few years I show him a landmark release. The last time he saw a videogame was portal2. I want to make him watch those ads before I give him a demo.
