Can't vote. Both will be good.

Well, I've been economical with the truth.

BioShock has had more then enough years to think about it.

I don't really care for Bioshock all that much, so Last Light for me.

Having finally completed Metro, and BioShock. I can honestly say BioShock is far superior. I think the only thing Metro does better is the atmosphere.

My problem with BioShock originally was the plasmids. I don't know why I let them bother me so much, but they're disgusting. It makes it kind of hard to get into. The first BioShock was really good though.

A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal.

And from FOX, two phantoms were born.

I hated Bioshock.

Enjoyed Metro.

They worked in System Shock 2, so Levine kept them for BioShock. I liked it, I felt it mixed up gameplay. You could probably do the entire game using Plasmids only.

They definitely work, the gameplay works at least. It's just the concept behind, the graphic. You know, the whole "sticking yourself with rusty syringes to shoot bees out of your wrist". feelsbadman

True. Well it is a horror game. I think BioShock Infinite is one of the lightest games Levine has done, in terms of themes and what-not. It's not actually a horror game for once.

DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE!

Metro: Last Light is a survival horror/thriller with emphasis on survival. It's all down to how you play the game. I expect this to be ramped up to 11 compared to Metro 2033. It's more open world.

Bioshock Infinate has a lot of potential too, as it's setting is totally differnt. The rails mean you can make your way through the world how you want, and (last time I checked) the plasmids aren't permanent, so it's about conservation, too. Morality, as well. If you attack Songbird, you relationship with Elizibeth will deteriorate.

Both, I'd emagine, would have different endings for good and bad, with a neutral one for Bioshock Infinate.

I'd go for Metro: Last Light, as it's a sequel to a bloody good game based off of a bloody good book. It looks to be a really good hit. Plus, I like the survivalist aspects and realism of the first game.

This. Also, Infinite.

Metro is a poor (Russian) man's BioShock.

"Living to smile, and not to succeed; smiling to inspire happiness, not to give the illusion you are happy; creativity and music to inspire smiling, which in turn inspires happiness; being nice to be happy, not for being perceived a good person."

Last Light.

The second book diverges off from the first, and doesn't really explain what happens to Artyom after the events of the first. So I want to see what they do with him and his character, especially knowing that the entire destruction of the Dark Ones could have been avoided (in the canon ending) if he had chosen to be more understanding of their and Humanities current situation.

Not anymore; they operate the same way Plasmids did in 1 and 2. I prefer it that way, to be honest; remember what Bungie said about waiting to use equipment in Halo 3? If it's limited use, you're gonna wait until you absolutely need it. But the level could finish or whatever by then.

Morality, as well. If you attack Songbird, you relationship with Elizibeth will deteriorate.
I did not know that. Considering Songbird and Elizabeth's relationship, that makes a lot of sense. Awesome.

Their only similarity is that they're in first-person. Other than that, they play nothing like each other. You're out of your element Donny, shut up.

One does not simply trolololol into Mordor.

They are both cool games but I like Post-Apocalyptic settings better so Metro it is

  • 01.02.2013 5:02 AM PDT

I'm your biggest fan!

Love Bioshock, can't really get into Metro. My vote goes to Infinite.

the only problem i have with mine is that it's unstable,[very shakey],so you'd need a tripod for it.

Pretty much this. Except I think that the atmospheres are on about the same level.
