BioShock Infinite App Reviews

This game is hands down the most beautiful FPS I have ever experienced. Gameplay is smooth and engaging. That being said, it has crashed twice on me, losing my current place. Hoping an update will fix this, my friends who purchased on Steam never have this issue.

The most amazing game I have ever played. Stunning graphics, great story, smart AI, the execution of this game is flawless! After just 2min of game play you are sunk into this new world, and you’re hooked! You’re never board, it’s just the right amount of action.

Resolution is blocked very low, can’t select full hd or higher… I am demanding an update or money back !.. nearly 30euros to play at 1280x720 thats unacceptable !

The Game is fine … impressive graphics … wonderful story … ends much too fast … ;) But the Update Strategy for In-App-Purchases is unacceptable: I have installed the whole game with its whopping 39 GB and then in a simple Update for In-App-Purchases it again downloads (YEAH DOWNLOADS) 39 GB … ARE YOU CRAZY? THAT IS MY BANDWIDTH … NOT YOURS ... Please fix that … there are smart algorithms out there to do it better … look for example at rsync … if u need help call me … ;) It happened two times to me that my bandwidth was wasted that way … and I can be happy because I have a 50 MBit/s Internet Connection … and even there it takes hours … Please fix that soon ...

Great game, if you like Bioshock you will love this its made by the people who did Bioshock not Bioshock 2. Its lots of fun so buy it. Hopefully the next port Aspyr Media does is Black Ops 2.

Great game so far, very interesting setting and storyline. Runs perfectly on max settings on my 2013 macbook air.

One of a kind!

If youre going to ship a game without a proper save mechanism, you better make sure it doesnt crash. And this game crashes a lot. Gaming is entertainment: if I cant stop (save) when I want to the entertainment value is greatly diminished.

Dont be a dummy like me: Check your system requirements. I can get as far as the quote about man making up memories during the opening scene, and then it crashes. Better to NOT have a game that you reallly want, as opposed to owning a game that you really want that doesnt work.

The Design of this game is incredible, the attention to detail is insane, I wander around so much just looking at things I end up dying because I forget its a FPS.

The game is wonderful. It seems very demanding on hardware however. I have a retina Macbook Pro, and I ran the game at 720p with low-medium graphical settings, which is a lower standard than I am used to with the rMBPs decent GPU. That said, the game still looked very nice, in the sense that "low" and "medium" seems to be a higher standard in Bioshock Infinity than many other comparable games. I very quickly forgot about the graphical settings in any case -- the game still looks as good or probably better than on an xBox/PS3, and when youve got bad guys running at you, the immersion is complete. I should also note that performance issues aside, this port of the game seemed very good to me. I experienced no crashes or other glitches at all. So investigate the hardware requirements first, but otherwise this is a superlative example of a more thoughtful and complex first-person shooter, in the vein of the original Bioshock or Deus Ex (also available on this store and criminally under-bought by Mac users as far as I can tell).

I really like the game i played several hours and would not take back a second of that time :D

Will not load past difficulty level selection. Crashes/freezes each time I try. I want my $$ back!

Its the little, often overlooked, things that make this game great. The world building is superb. I was immersed from the beginning. The games creators caught the tenor of early 20th Century America perfectly. It did a fine job of showing that beauty cant really hide evil much as it may try. The music, unlike many games, adds to the enjoyment. Its appropriate, and often a joke. If you listen youll find yourself smiling or laughing. Minor spoiler ahead: For example, when you are looking at the Siphon for the first time listen carefully. What youll hear is quite appropriate to the tenor of the game. The combat is, to me, simpler than in the other Bioshock games. Which I find more realistic and more challenging. You have to choose your weapons carefully. The other equipment you use, known as Gears, must also be selected with care. Pick the wrong ones in either case and combat will be extremely difficult. Unlike the other Bioshock games I find I use all the Vigors (Plasmids). Each can be useful and some enemies are immune to particular Vigors. You have to be quick and smart to deal with these opponents. There are only two things that detract from the experience. First, Im not fond of autosaves. But I can live with it. Second, to me it didnt make much sense that each weapon had its own ammo. in the real world there is ammunition that can be used by many weapons. In Infinite each weapon has unique ammo and as a result some weapons are difficult to keep stocked. But those are minor problems that take nothing from my enjoyment of this game. The story is great. It reminded me of Michael Moorcocks Eternal Champion stories or Roger Zelaznys Amber Chronicles. Much enjoyed and highly recommended.

29 gigs? Really? To have to download the entire game again is ridiculous considering other apps just update what needs to be updated and not the entire package!!! Some people have to worry about bandwidth and a 29 gig update is f’ing stupid!!! You’re lazy Aspyr!!!

Had to download almost 60gb to get this game going but seems like it may be worth it. I only played for a bit but the environment is incredibly immersive. I am running an i7 8gb 2012 air and the game is running flawless at 1024 with settings dialed down. Game looks great even at these settings. The game eats my battery as would be expected.

I really enjoyed Bioshock Infinite. The gameplay, while fairly weak and boring, is compensated by a great story and interesting world. The shortcomings of the gameplay, which was hugely neglected in this iteration of Bioshock, become painfully obvious in the DLC: Burial at Sea where the story isn’t even enough to occupy one’s mind during a short trip to the bathroom. Although Burial at Sea only costs $10 it still feels like a hollow cashgrab which adds nothing to the series, improves nothing in combat and presents us with a mediocre, linear world. These tactics make me wonder when the developers will start charging us real money (in app pruchases) for ammo and weapons.

I had been waiting for a long time for Bioshock Infinite to come out on the Mac. I just got a new MB Pro with Retina. I’ve maxed out the settings and the game runs amazingly smooth! Graphics are spectacular! Still has the original Bioshock vibe. Gameplay is pretty straight forward and and the storyline is satisfying. FP shooters simply do not get better or more imaginative than this. Just get it!

While I enjoyed the game, I had to deal with 2K Games Customer Service. The experience was so poor that I will NOT be buying any more products from 2K games any time soon

So, I was wondering, why is this game so massive, every update just adds another 10 gb of content, but 10 gb of what? It’s not a bad game but the size of the game will be a major problem for people with small hard dives/flash drives.
