Not sure if you'd consider it exploration, but that Gamespot plays Bioshock Infinite video had a good amount of gameplay that wasn't in combat. Be warned though, it's pretty spoilery.
EDIT: Beaten, heh.
One month from today: BioShock Infinite
- Thread starter Andrew.

I am confused because on steam it says minimum requirement 20gb and recommended 30gb hd space. Where is the 35gb dl coming from?

Calling Bio 1 simply an FPS is disrespectful to game's depthness and story. Even though Take Two markets it that way. And when it comes to ratings... Well the less is better... Seriously is there anybody who gives a fuck about Game Informer, Gamepro, Ign or such shitty sites and magaziness reviews?
I'll be at one of the Boston Gamestops to say Hi. I'll know which one tomorrow if anyone is local.
Booker, wake up and smell the ashes.
Ive played through the HL2 saga many, many times. I just havent in awhile =D
In the interview with Sessler back in December, Levine mentioned the AI and companion function of Alyx in relation to Liz so that's what sparked it again for me. Love Alyx. So good.
Actually, yes. Quite a lot of people do.

I have 40 bucks in credit for Gamestop and am going to get this game day 1. I never pay full price for games anymore so, if you guys didn't know, I'm plenty hyped. I also beat SS2 the other day so 1999 mode will be ripped to shreds, or it might not be... we'll see.

Natural selection would select against most of today's humans too so this doesn't mean much.

I mean on GAF.
Places like those can be really entertaining to visit for reviews sometimes though. Millers' IGN DS2 review for example, is one of the funniest review pieces I have ever come across.
I won't be able to play this game until a couple of days after release at the earliest. I get sad reading through this thread.
Aw man, and like 90% of us will have finished it by then too.
Ill be sticking around for that Plat though.
And I can guarantee you the Infinite review thread will be just as large, unless it's a launch day embargo.
I'll really have to avoid the OT while I'm playing the game. Maybe take a peak in every now and then to read people arguing with Derrick for pages on end. That might prove enough entertainment in the interim.
I really hope that shit doesnt happen, but who knows.
I just hope I can pre-load the game a few days in advance. My internet connection is slow as fuck, and I don't want to be still installing the game on the 26th.
We'll definitely get some juniors who don't know how to use spoiler tags correctly. Actually, there are plenty of members who can't use them either.
Maybe one thing that the Infinite DLC will take from the goodness of Bio 2s DLC will be the player being in the role of someone else during Columbias fall. Like maybe you'll get a chance to play from the Vox Populi perspective.
Or hell, play as the Songbird for a minigame and fly around snatching up bad children and throwing them off the edges, just like in the nursery rhyme.

Derrick01 is the grumpycat.jpg, I don't know how I could love and hate a hobby quite like he does.
Uh. Totally forgot about that sorry.
I guess it makes sense to show more "action'y" parts in trailers.

What do you mean by that? Half-Life 2's a great game.
Hot damn, fellow Utahn!
I know. Its one of my favs of all time. I was just sayin...

So did we hit XCOM yet on Steam?
Yessir. Haha. SLC is bound to have one.

I might, it's free with a preorder, so why not?

Whoa, thanks for the warning, I was going to read it before playing the game. That was close.
We'll make it. It got to the point it's at now in a couple of days once Tier 2 unlocked.
And once we do you all can play a pretty good game. I was pretty happy with Xcom last year.

It's funny, because I'm always playing Half-Life 2. For serious. That's why I always have Half-Life 2 screenshots in the screenshots thread. Thats one of the reasons I'm pumped for infinite. It feels like it could be their HL2. Probably won't, but that's mostly due to lack of hype.

"Like Far cry 3 with claps" :lol
After Episode Two, I told myself I wouldn't play through the series again until Episode Three (or what's assuredly now Half-Life 3) arrived, and to this day I've stayed true to my word*.
* Well, there was a close call last year where I loaded up the original Half-Life, but I quit immediately after the opening tram ride.
Fantastic book.
I zipped through it in just a mote of time a couple weeks ago.
It's worth reading. The book follows the perspective of a
physician
is studying Daisy Fitzroy's mind while she's being held captive. It's supposed to be literally his medical journal entries, including transcripts of interviews between the doctor and Fitzroy.
The ebook is consistent with the content release thus far and paints a picture of Columbia while also leaving the more enigmatic questions unanswered for the game. I'd like to see if some of the threads established in the novella end up expanded upon in the game.
In short, read it. It's one of the few tie-in products I've read that actually seems purposeful and germane to the narrative and setting.
We're going to ensure that the CORRECT method for spoiler tags will be on display at the top of the first page of the OT, although I'm sure some people will miss them.
Perhaps we should spin the OT off into a spoiler thread once the game ships?
