- This week, Zero Punctuation review BioShock: Infinite.
- The game is set in the year 1912 and follows its protagonist, former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, who is sent to the floating air city of Columbia to find a young woman, Elizabeth, who has been held captive there for most of her life. Though Booker rescues Elizabeth, the two become involved with the city's warring factions: the nativist and elite Founders that rule Columbia and strive to keep its privileges for White Americans, and the Vox Populi, underground rebels representing the underclass of the city. During this conflict, Booker learns that Elizabeth possesses strange powers to manipulate "Tears" in the space-time continuum that ravage Columbia, and soon discovers her to be central to the city's dark secrets.
- BioShock Infinite is the third game in the BioShock series. Announced on August 12, 2010, it was Irrational Games' final project. It was released on March 26, 2013 for PC (Steam), Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3; August 29th, 2013 for Mac (Mac App Store and Steam) and March 17th, 2015 for Linux (Steam). BioShock Infinite is not a direct sequel/prequel to any of the previous BioShock games, and it takes place in an entirely different setting, although it shares similar features, gameplay and concepts with the previous games. __TOC__
- BioShock Infinite received critical acclaim upon release, and was favorably compared to, with some even considering it had surpassed, the first and original BioShock game. The game's plot and visual aesthetics were particularly praised, while the combat received a mixed response with some praising its new additions and others criticizing its simplicity. Its themes of political and religious beliefs, and the use excessive violent imagery have also raised controversy. BioShock Infinite won numerous pre-release awards for its display at E3 2011, including Best of Show from the Game Critics Awards.
- BioShock Infinite is a first-person shooter video game, and the third game in the BioShock series. Previously known as "Project Icarus", it was developed by Irrational Games for the Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms. BioShock Infinite is not a direct sequel or prequel to previous BioShock games, taking place in an earlier period of Dieselpunk and different setting and not having any major horror elements, though it features similar gameplay concepts and themes, and near the end Booker visits Bioshock's underwater city known as Rapture. The player controls a former Pinkerton agent, Booker DeWitt, as he attempts to rescue Elizabeth Comstock trapped aboard the collapsing air-city Columbia in 1912.
