One of THE BEST single player story games I have ever played. You don't even need to play the other Bioshock games to enjoy this one.

Take-Two and 2K games have updated all their games Terms of Service, turning this game as well as all of their other games into literal spyware.

2K wants to know every single bit of information that exists about you if you want to play their games now. Complete trash.

Based on a full review of the Take-Two EULA and Privacy Policy, this system very closely resembles commercial-grade spyware, particularly by modern threat modeling and privacy ethics standards. Here's a breakdown using spyware criteria and consumer hostility analysis: 🕵️ Spyware Criteria Evaluation Surreptitious system monitoring ✅ Collects IP, device info, software details, app installs, OS version, and browsing behavior without explicit informed consent at install time. Behavioral profiling ✅ Builds dynamic consumer profiles via usage data and ad network signals. Keystroke/content monitoring ⚠️ Borderline Chat logs, audio recordings, in-game interactions, and custom content are captured and stored. While not full keylogging, this is still highly invasive. Audio/visual recording ✅ Explicitly logs voice chat, gameplay footage, avatars, and video footage in testing environments. Data exfiltration to 3rd parties ✅ Shares personal identifiers, usage history, and inferences with advertising networks. Data is also disclosed to vendors and affiliates. Anti-privacy engineering ✅ Bans virtual machines and remote sessions to block obfuscation, sandboxing, or isolation — an anti-user move commonly seen in DRM spyware. Evasive language / vague consent ✅ Consent is buried in clickwrap agreements. Changes to data policy are implemented with “notice” and assumed agreement through continued use. 🔍 Verdict: Yes, it exhibits spyware-like behavior, by modern infosec and data ethics standards. It lacks rootkit-level code injection, but the scope and intent mirror enterprise surveillance tools. 💀 Consumer Hostility Scorecard Modding ban Explicit and strict; no fair-use carveouts Kills community creativity and player control VM ban Enforced via TOS; blocks privacy-focused setups Blocks advanced users from isolating the game Surveillance Extensive, tied to gameplay and device activity Personal data and behavioral analytics monetized Data resale Opt-out only; ad partners included Player behavior is a product Arbitration clause Mandatory with 30-day opt-out via postal mail Waives class action and jury trial rights Ownership model All UGC and custom content is theirs You build, they own Public exposure Leaderboards, forums, and chat are not private Players may unknowingly expose private info Consent enforcement Continued use = consent Consent is passive and legally insulated 🔥 Hostility Grade: A (Aggressive Monetization, Rights Stripping, Surveillance-Heavy) This isn't designed for player empowerment — it's designed to extract value, limit control, and shield the company from legal recourse.

Best story out of all bioshock games imo, worldbuilding and gameplay are very unique!

This is not a game but a spyware which will inject Trojan Horse into your PC, scan your disk and system without any authorization to illegally obtain your personal info, passwords, monitor user habits etc. Stay away from any Take 2, 2K games. Install at your own risks.

Game refuses to load for me, just a blank black screen after 2K logo when I click play!!!!!!

I played this game a while back, and it was pretty. It also felt like an arcade game, which would be fun, but the combat felt boring and repetitive. I don't know why, but I hardly played it. Every time I think about going back, I just think, "meh". Probably because I only have a moderate appreciation for shooter games, but I do play them. I have 2 2K games in my library, and I regret both. Now, they have a new, invasive terms of service, which I am not here for. If you value your privacy, you should check that out. There are some weird things in it that might influence your decision on purchasing a game from them. This is not something I want standardized in this industry.

Excellent Story and Gameplay. The only thing I dislike is the Save system, which is very different compared to Bioshock 1 and 2. Other than that, I really enjoyed it.

Deleting the game and never playing it again due to the new terms of service, thanks 2k. Ill likely never play a 2k game again.

I did really enjoy the game, the Vigors power up are fun to play with your enemies and Elizabeth she is the most useful companion that'll help you throughout the game. The floating theocratic utopia city of Columbia is both heavenly and dreadful in some respect, like it is to good to be true but hide something terrible behind it. Fascinating story and plot twist of parallel chance of universes with only slightly but million different version at the end will blow your mind.

it took everything about bio shock and made them worse the guns don't have any feel your just watching enimies fall with no feed back, the plasmid's or vigor's all feel unispired and boring to use and finnaly the story is just a bunch of go here and do this with no real feeling behind it

I've played through this like 5 times at least. Its great but the story definitely makes zero sense like halfway through. "oh we need to get the gunsmith's machinery from A to B, but that's hard work. Elizabeth, why not open a portal to another reality where its not here and I'll just assume my deal with the anarchist faction leader chick fo an airship still stands". Terrible, just terrible. Amazing eye candy and story until that point though. ALSO everyone is upset at 2K for becoming spyware so leaving a negative review and hopping on that bandwagon. Ra ra we are upset!

I bought BioShock Infinite expecting a thoughtful, philosophical shooter. What I got was a rollercoaster of quantum physics, sky hooks, flying racism cities, and a girl who can open wormholes and throw me hotdogs mid-gunfight. First off, the game opens with you rowing to a lighthouse — because apparently, all philosophical nightmares begin at a lighthouse. Then BAM — suddenly I’m in Columbia, a floating city built by a guy who read the Bible once and said, “You know what this needs? A giant mechanical bird and weaponized patriotism.” You play as Booker DeWitt, a man who’s either a private eye, a war criminal, a time paradox, or just really bad at debt management. He’s sent to rescue Elizabeth, a charming young woman who’s basically the world’s most useful Disney princess: she picks locks, throws you ammo, and occasionally bends time and space like she’s trying to return socks at Walmart without a receipt. Gameplay is wild. You ride on rollercoaster rails while blasting people in the face with a weapon called the Hand Cannon, and if things get rough, Elizabeth opens a tear in reality to summon a turret, some medkits, or — I swear — a ghost horse that screams. Also, I spent most of the game trying to understand the plot, until I gave up and decided it’s just Schrödinger’s Civil War with magic hands. There are like 37 versions of you, some of them are racist, all of them are sad. And then there’s Songbird — imagine a 40-foot steampunk falcon with abandonment issues and a noise that sounds like dubstep having a stroke. He shows up to ruin your life at emotionally inconvenient times. Final Rating: ∞ timelines out of 10 Come for the guns, stay because you’re stuck in a multiverse of guilt and regret. Would quantum detangle again.

Great story, beautiful graphics, good game play. Not saying it is a short game, but I do wish it was longer. At least the DLC is great as well. For me, about as much enjoyment I have ever gotten out of a video game. It is a shame Ken has been unable to release another game in what is now 12 years.

EULA changed to something God awful. Details are all over the place, so I'll spare myself the effort to type it all up.

Warning! 2k Games are spyware from now on, they made a EULA change that allows them to scan your pc and even your browser data.

Esse jogo é perfeito, com uma historia muito boa, mas o novo termo que a 2K esta impondo em seus jogos forçando seus consumidores a instalar um spyware nos PCs, me impede de recomendar esse jogo.

Really enjoyed this one when first going through the game & having a new world to navigate separate from Rapture. Elizabeth felt like a well written character & was quite advanced for its time with how she talk with your character, would interact with the surrounding world & assist you in combat with supplies. Thoroughly enjoyed the Burial at Sea DLC's as well, being able to revisit Rapture before the city's demise, and see the story conclusion connect back to the 1st game.

2k EULA update directly downloads rootkit tier spyware into your computer. DO NOT PLAY. Official copies of the game are dangerous. Sailing the high seas is much safer.

Another game I hate to give a thumbs down to but the lovely malware EULA that comes with all 2K products now just leaves such a sour taste in my mouth over the fact Ill likely never get to play this series again

The following is copied from another review I agree with: I have removed all 2K software from all machines I own and will not be buying their games in the future as I do not appreciate being sold malware. They have effectively ended their business, just in time for their next game... Genius move...

All this data being collected by a company who's CEO was accused of leaving a USB with illegal material on it as well as sensitive data of Gearbox/2K partners in a medieval themed restaurant, and were supposed to just give in to these absurd terms of service? My take on these terms of service changes is that I now have more hard drive space and I will not be playing another 2K game until these terms are changed. This also extends to the majority of Take-Two published games. Welcome to my ♥♥♥♥ list Take-Two, you've earned it.

Hey, Take-Two Interactive? Changing the terms of the sale AFTER the sale and trying to bend me over a barrel after you have my money? I don't think so. I've uninstalled everything, I will not re-install. I won't buy another title from you or your subsidiaries. You are the definition of anti-consumer, anti-player, anti-person, anti-privacy, anti-whatever. Your company and your subsidiaries deserve to cease to exist. You can take your demands of intrusion into my system, network, activities, life AND your arbitration BS and stuff all of it where the sun doesn't shine. Here's my stance: If you can't buy something and own it, then by the same token, the thing that can't be owned also CANNOT BE STOLEN. Therefore, "Piracy" doesn't exist. And believe me, the kind of shenanigans you're trying to pull here is EXACTLY why PIRACY is not only a thing, but is also a perfectly legitimate way of acquiring something that can't be owned from a company that thinks its users/players are worth less than nothing. YOU OWE ME A REFUND. If you don't refund me, I'll simply COST you. One way or another. So, Screw Me? Nah, mates... SCREW YOU. Take your TOS and Privacy Policy and shove them up your arses. To the ENTIRETY of your so-called "Terms of Service" and "Privacy Policy": I DISAGREE FULLY, COMPLETELY AND HEREBY REVOKE ANY PRIOR AGREEMENT TO ALL PREVIOUS TOS/PP EFFECTIVELY IMMEDIATELY. Return my money, or be KNOWINGLY GUILTY of THEFT. SCREW YOU! ***************************************************** https://steamcommunity.com/id/Candy_Island/recommended/49520/ *****************************************************

Such a beautiful piece of storytelling accompanied with the stunning visuals. Totally one of my all time favourites

this is one of my fav games of all-times (keepingcompany with mass effect and the xcom series) it's got time travel and quantum physics and i love that shit

Bioshock Infinite was the first Bioshock game I remember playing. Now coming back to the game for a second time after completing both Bioshock 1 and 2 I can say with confidence that I don't like this game. It starts of strong and the presentation of the floating city is great. Meeting Elizabeth and setting her free, watching her experience life outside for the first time worked for me. Then the plot introduces time travel and it completely lost me at this point. The game has some cool set pieces and it felt rewarding going off the beaten path to explore. It doesn't feel like they innovated with the combat at all since the first game. I played the game on hard difficulty and the enemies felt super bullet spongey. Especially the more difficult enemies. The weapons just don't feel satisfying to shoot and for some reason they got rid of weapons changing their appearance when upgrading them. You can also only carry two weapons at a time so you are constantly running out of ammo and have to pick up other weapons, sometimes weapons you don't have upgraded. Most of the loot is really underwhelming. Elisabeth is pretty useful during gameplay but she loves running just in front of you and trying to predict where you are going to go next, resulting in her getting in your way quite a bit. I don't care for the main character at all. The lady Comstock bossfight was one of the few things I remember from my original playthrough and now I know why. They repeat her fight several times and on the hard difficulty you are better of ignoring the other enemies and just focusing her, because by the time you have killed them all she instantly revives more of them. Super lame bossfight. So yeah, the story didn't work for me, the characters mostly didn't work for me and the gameplay didn't satisfy me. Very unfortunate because the blimps and floating city are all really cool.

Pretty cool game when it doesnt launch into a black screen

Game will never be installed again, unless Terms of Service change to consumer friendly, and get rid of your root level spyware.

its a so so game but do not install any game with EULA on steam unless you want to open up your pc to data pirates who want to legalise stealing data AS A PART OF "GAMING".

It is a huge deviation from the typical bioshock experience, but in a great way. The story line is very immersive, there's tons of gritty, explosive action right off the bat, and the graphics are incredible!

I'm struggling to put my feelings about this game into words. Ultimately I think if you are a fan of the other Bioshock games you owe it to yourself to play this one, But personally I don't appreciate how far the game play strays from the original. Good world and Atmosphere, mid game play, and a story that has a lot of cool moments, but looses focus and lacks a meaningful message or purpose. I really want to like this game but the game play really pulls it down for me.

Game is as fun as it was when it was new. Some mods help with the clunky game mechanics though, such as the modern warfare mod.

I remember enjoying my playthrough of this but there was so much extra content I just didn't care to explore.

I love this game. Got it years ago and was my introduction to FPS. Before this, I was not a fan of FPS but after this game I love it. Also the story is great and so are the actors. Very fun game.

radical centrism the video game. masterfully made, every bit of the world is thoughtfully crafted as is the story. the barbershop quartet singing 'god only knows', the small details through the tears, This is a level of detail AI will never be able to produce on an artistic level, and should be a blueprint for anyone seeking to make a well made FPS with a incredible story, voice acting, etc. The ultimate movie game, and it actually has gameplay. The other reviews? I don't know what the fuck these babbling lunatics are rambling about. I'd buy this one a gazillion times over if I could but I'm broke as shit.

Even in 2025, this game is a masterpiece. It didn't take long to finish, but I enjoyed every minute! The characters, music, story and style of the game are all executed with great attention and love.

A retro classic, beautiful game for it times and great unconventional storytelling.

Love the game, love the story. Not as good as the first 2 Bioshocks in either respect. It scratches the itch and has some interesting mechanics of its own but doesnt compare to the other Bioshocks. Also not really in love with 2K.

If you love Bioshock 1 & 2, then Infinite will somehow crash out and throw it into the trash. The horror shooter is tone down and take the backseat for Action Shooter to shine. That's doesn't mean the game is bad, it's it own BEAST with the world setting and feeling, narrative... And if i have any minus point for this game is enemy variety and how dumb they are compare to 1 and 2.

I'm not really an FPS gamer, but I had a great time. The atmosphere and lore are amazing, especially if you played the earlier Bioshocks. It really is a shame that the studio dissolved after this game due to the director, but as the protagonist Booker DeWitt says, "give a man a little power, and he falls in all kinds of love with himself." I played it using a gyro controller. I set in-game mouse sensitivity to minimum and the steam sensitivity to 500%. It was still a little janky, but enough to get through the game on normal difficulty. A mouse is probably the best option. Opponents move a lot faster than in most games and you really don't have the time to line up shots with a gyro controller.

By far the best Bioshock game in my opinion, and its probably the most pretty game of 2013.

While not as good as bioshock 1 in my opinion, this game is still an excellent addition to the bioshock franchise. I love the steampunk setting of Columbia, as it's very unique and not many games have it. Story was great too (although a slight bit confusing at times), and combat was a 10/10.

Autosaves only get triggered at specific locations/events so if you like exploring the game for loot be prepared to lose up to 1 hour of progress when the game inevitably crashes for whatever reason. At least the first 2 games allowed us to spam quick saves so the crashing was more tolerable. Here, not only is the game unstable but the developers were too lazy to include manual saving. You can force a save by entering and exiting zones but this only works when the game feels like it as sometimes if you try to leave and exit an area too often the game just decides you get fucked. There is also no way to disable the vita chamber equivalent unless you want to lose all progress up to the previous autosave. This makes enemy encounters extremely unsatisfying because the player never has to figure out the combat puzzles like in prior titles (with chambers disabled) because of the shitty autosaves and lazy buyback revive design. All the new gimmicks with Elizabeth don't matter when you can just die over and over again with no consequences. The gameplay feels like halo with the shield and 2 weapon limit except the devs forgot how halo had tolerable checkpoints that occur frequently. Infinite also promotes backtracking but removed the map for some unknown reason just to make the game even less enjoyable.
