Game of the day

For a change of pace I am going to suggest a game instead of a song today. Bioshock Infinite was released on March 26 for the Xbox 360, PS3, and for PC and has been getting great reviews.

Bioshock Infinite was released on March 26 for the Xbox 360, PS3, and for PC and has been getting great reviews. However, it's a follow up to Irrational Games original Bioshock released in 2007 and that's my focus today.

Gamefly has a bundle of both Bioshock and Bioshock 2 (a good game, though developed by a different studio) on sale for $5 as digital downloads for PC and I highly recommend picking it up as Bioshock is considered to be one of the best games ever produced.

It centers on a city, Rapture, built underneath the sea. A society removed from the morals and ethics espoused by the tax-man in Washington, the comrade in Moscow and the preacher in the Vatican. A city built for pure science and creative endeavours - the pinnacle of libertarianism and objectivism.

Unfortunately, this underwater laissez-faire utopia had a defect in it's DNA. It's mutated, a cancer grows, unchecked.

Of course you don't know this, hell, you didn't even know such a place existed... you were just on a plane that went down in the middle of the Atlantic. An area in the middle of a giant ocean that just happened to have a lighthouse leading down to Rapture.

Now it's up to you to figure out what's going on, what happened, and how to get out alive.
