Definitely, some of the covers were brilliant. My favourite was (spoiler towards later part of the game):

The black lady sitting on the stockade podium singing a soulful rendition of CCR's Fortunate Son. See here. I wasn't just one of the best covers, it is one of the best moments in the game for me as it's such as powerful statement, especially from the setting it's being sung in.
Also, I enjoyed finding why they were all there (later part of game spoiler again):

Towards the later part of the game you understand that it was Albert Fink using tears to steal music from other universes and re-recording them as his own works for Columbia. I thought it was a nice idea to explain how the music ended up there.

people that say this annoy me. Not that i have completed it yet but if the devs want you to see stuff they will make sure you see it. Anything else is literally supplement that you wont even remember once you play a different game.

the whole notion that if you complete a game in X hours means your having a worse or better experience is just silly.
its still the same game , your still seeing the story, still killing **** (which is what this games core is) - your really not missing anything worthy of life changing.

Wholly disagree. Yes, things that are vital to the story will often be handed to you on a platter or put where you'll see it, but in a game like Bioshock or Tomb Raider, there's plenty of stuff that you need to go looking for to get the full picture. Besides, half the fun is exploring the world they've created, why wouldn't you want to make the most of it?

But as always, ignorance is bliss.

I'd agree for this game because the story is a mystery but Tomb Raider was so predictable and the extras really didn't give that much extra unless you really didn't have a clue what would happen.
 
I'm just in Comstock house right now and its really quite creepy. I just did the part where you pull the lever and turn around to one of those detector things in your face. Stopped playing for a bit now :D
 
easy way to kill things even on 1999 mode

use undertow to pull loads enemies in then switch quickly to electric shock them once (with the upgrade it shocks at least half then, meelee them (using the melee electric upgrade) pretty much instant death

water + shock works really well!
 
Superb top 3 all time ending if not the best ending of any game ever made on any platform for sure :eek:

Almost up there with Half Life 2 as a superb SP only game but not quite as its let down by the tiny playing area (much smaller than you think seems bigger as they re-use levels in several places with minor changes).

Its well worth buying for any PC gamer to experience the atmosphere & story telling aspects but as a lengthy SP game experience you will not revisit that often it falls into the same trap as Bishock1....short but sweet while it lasts (only 7 hours for me & I collected 80% of all the recordings).

8.5/10 is pretty fair overall & Ken Levine is a design genius but I would hate to think how much money this game cost to make the production values in places are insane & it borrows heavily from Fallout 3 art design must be the same team as some of the gfx are very bobblehead boy ;) But for a 2013 PC game its going to be hard to better this even if it short n sweet :p
 
What an ending.

WHAT A GODDAMN ENDING.

I must have gasped at least three times during the last 20 or so minutes. Just phenomenal. Sad it's over now, as I'm not one to go back and re-do harder difficulties etc.

Elizabeth is easily the single best AI partner ever to grace a video game. Ever.
 
Can anybody login to their Industrial Revolution account?

I could login a couple of days ago, but now it just pops up saying "thinking" refreshes and brings me back to the login screen. I need to obtain my code for reaching level 34.

Have cleared cookies and tried logging in on 3 different browsers.

Could someone give it a go ? www.finkmanufacturing.com
 
Just completed the game for the first time. On hard, around 15 hours. I don't explore games as much these days, but this was different and I was constantly searching for stuff. Really a great game.
Felt it was starting to lag half way through, but the end picked up again brilliantly.

You get annoyed way too easily. Completing it in 6 hours you are going to miss little details. if you don't care about that then fair enough. Not saying it would be a better or worse experience, just saying that you will miss stuff rushing through the game.
 
Also, could anyone tell me how on earth to work SweetFX

i extract everything into my Win32 folder, yet pressing Scroll lock in game does NOTHING, there is no difference in anything what so ever. I got this to work with Dishonored, but ive forgotten what to do :(

which win32 folder is it? the one located in steamapps? or the one located in mydocuments/mygames/bioshockinfinite

is Scroll Lock even the overlay key? Seems to be next to nothing on tutorials for this thing.
