SympathysSilhouette Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Two things: I never quite realized how melancholic and even somewhat sad the melody to this song is until I heard this version. Also, the lyrics get a totally different meaning within the context of the game: I come home in the morning light, My mother says "When you gonna live your life right?" Oh,mother,dear, We're not the fortunate ones, And girls, They wanna have fu-un. Oh,girls, Just wanna have fun. The phone rings in the middle of the night, My father yells "What you gonna do with your life?" Oh,daddy,dear, You know you're still number one, But girls, They wanna have fu-un, Oh,girls,just wanna have That's all they really want..... Some fun.... When the working day is done, Oh,girls, They wanna have fu-un, Oh,girls, Just wanna have fun.... Girls, They want, Wanna have fun. Girls, Wanna have Some boys take a beautiful girl, And hide her away from the rest of the world. I wanna be the one to walk in the sun. Oh,girls, They wanna have fu-un. Oh,girls, Just wanna have That's all they really want..... Some fun.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donbot Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share Posted April 7, 2013 Indeed! Which makes me wonder: is Bioshock Infinite the best scripted video game ever? I certainly can't think of any better ones... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SympathysSilhouette Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Indeed! Which makes me wonder: is Bioshock Infinite the best scripted video game ever? I certainly can't think of any better ones... It's certainly up there, along with the first couple of Bioshocks. Some others I'd consider would be Mass Effect (whole trilogy), Alan Wake, Grim Fandango, I'm sure there's more.. Alan Wake is another that holds up well to scrutiny, has a very solid structure and even manages to squeeze in some comic relief (his agent!). Good call.

Michael* Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Have fun! I haven't even made it to Monument Island yet, but I'm already loving it. The first glimpse of Columbia's streets was absolutely awe-inspiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donbot Posted November 15, 2013 Author Share Posted November 15, 2013 Anyone played the Burial At Sea: Episode One DLC? Launch trailer: I really enjoyed it for the most part, although I must say bringing together the two worlds felt a little forced at times.. plus it was unfortunately marred by bugs. Still, it was pretty fantastic being back in Rapture, especially to get a glimpse of it in its heyday. The ending was great too - can't wait for episode two, where apparently Elizabeth will be the protagonist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donbot Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 25th March :Dinah: “In Burial at Sea – Episode Two, we are delivering a story that involves nearly every major character from the original BioShock and BioShock Infinite,” sayeth Ken Levine in a press release. “It is a story that will give gamers a new perspective on the BioShock universe and conclude the story of BioShock Infinite and Burial at Sea.” Irrational say that the episode will be built "almost entirely" from scratch, suggesting we'll get to see more new perspectives on Rapture. This time around, we'll be controlling Elizabeth, and Irrational are promising the introduction of new weapons and "stealth-oriented gameplay".

SympathysSilhouette Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Irrational Games is down-sizing, big time. http://irrationalgames.com/studio/ I guess that is it for Ken Levine authored Bioshock games.The series remains a 2K property.

Limerlight Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Sad news. I enjoyed all 3 games, though #1 was the only one I really really loved. #1 is in my top ten all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
