  1. Classic. I took geology in college, and I even wrote a song about all the rocks we studied called "Rocks in a box". This rock would definitely have a welcome place in my song.

    You such a scholar for a lawyer! My compliments sir!

  2. Tonics are the perks! Nobody remembers tonics :D

    Yes, inventory is very limited, it's a design (FPS component > RPG component) choice.

     

    Infinite is linear for the gameplay, not for the story/plot!

    Take a look here! http://bioshockmysteries.com/

     

    It's really a stimulus for the mind, like Jules Verne's tales back in the days!

  3. So, no idea why this is considered such a great series (didn't play the other two games, but they are apparently more of the same).

    Philosophical, psychological, scientific contest?

     

    It's a game not about the shooting but about the context and how the story make you discover, explore, live the context.

    And after all, it's a FPS with a good RPG twist, like System Shock series (the precursor of Bioshock)

  4. BS2 has one of the most profound story of all times in videogaming, the bound between you and Eleonor is amazing.

    Minerva's Den DLC too is heartbreaking in the ending (the ONLY color TV in Rapture isn't a design fluke, there's pure love in disgraced Rapture too!) and a good homage to informatics: Turing, subject SIGMA (-> "+") , the deterministic vision of computation, etc...
