Bioshock Infinite: I'll Just Leave These Here Without Comment (DIALUP WARNING! IMAGES!) [View all]

"Make yourself ready, pilgrim. The bindings are there as a safeguard.

Ascension in the count of FIVE... count of FOUR... THREE... TWO...

Ascension... Ascension...

Five thousand feet...

Ten thousand feet...

Fifteen thousand feet...

Hallelujah.

Ken Levine and everyone at 2K and Irrational are to be given a standing ovation for this stunning and absolutely gorgeous achievement. Infinite is actually better, and by far, than all of the prerelease hype of the past several years could possibly have led even the most jaded gamer to cynically believe could never be reached by the final product.

The reviews are not exaggerations. Bioshock Infinite is a masterpiece in nearly every sense of the word.

Hallelujah, indeed.
