Yeah, they pushed it back. I hope this is a good thing. Please don't suck.

Hurridly getting out of the way of the imminent GTA V.

Wait, I thought GTA V wasn't hitting for another year at least. It's Rockstar, it's going to get pushed back.

i think they pushed it a long while back - iirc they needed time to fine tune, to which i say take all the time you need

seems like there's a lot of staff leaving the developer. doesn't bode well - maybe they're far enough along that it won't impact on the quality of the game too much?
― thirstin' maw (haitch), Wednesday, 24 October 2012 05:16 (eleven years ago) link
more likely they stayed on till their principal work on this was finished.
I think the move to 2013 was more to give it some clear space in the schedules, rather than it not being nearly ready.
sure there will be polishing till release, but I'd say the main stuff is all done and people are now free to leave.

there have been quite a lot of talk of a troubled development though, Gears of War producer was brought in a few months ago to pull it together etc eg http://kotaku.com/5933119/bioshock-infinite-update-multiplayer-modes-cut-gears-maestro-joining-should-fans-worry

People who care way too much about this kind of thing are apparently pissed about that cover- grizzled white man with gun steadfastly refusing to look at off-screen explosion, etc- but it could have been a lot worse. I have to voice my appreciation for bright colors and zeppelins tbh.

definitely didn't pre-order this. Im worried its going to be a turd. bioshock 2 wasnt exactly amazing. then again infinite looks more than just a rapture rehash..

Totally different developers though - I'm not saying this won't be crap, but the people who made Bioshock Infinite had nothing to do with Bioshock 2 (and everything to do with the first game + System Shock 2 and SWAT 4).

all the trailers have been so chaotic, explosions everywhere, big guns. hopefully that's just the shit that looks exciting in a trailer and not what the majority of the game is like.

reviews falling all over themselves to slobber ken levine's dick here. as long as it's an attractive shooter with enough "trenchant social commentary" to counterbalance all the right wing islamophobe modern warfare stuff i'll be happy.

the first one was entertaining and involving enough but was not exactly fashion forward as a shooter. if this one is about the same that's worth it to me.

I will probably rather enjoy this. I love the art design, and my first job was as a dude in a historical American village set between 1865-1914.
