1. With hard hitting action, remarkable
characters and a striking setting. BioShock
Infinite took the media by storm hitting both
the storyline and gameplay on the head.This
detailed review done by ‘Elliot’s Reviews’ gives you a great understanding into
the important and gripping aspects of the game without giving you too much
information or spoilers. Elliot is new on the scene with this being his first
review but that doesn’t stop him from being up with other competitors such as
The Angry Joe Show. He has a great first grasp on the concept of reviews but
does lack in quality, particularly audio. When the review first begins, it opens
up into a peaceful elevator scene, giving you some story and quotes from the
game. Once Elliot begins the mic is much distorted and if you’re a headphone
user, probably bringing you a headache! After the first clip this is fixed, but this
should be something he looked back on. I can’t fault his use of gameplay
footage as it is always a perfect example of what he is talking about. He does
however not talk about quite a few things such as ‘Firemen’, all of the
weapons, all the vigors and characters such as Yin. Though you didn’t feel as

2. though his review was lacking. From playing the game you can pick up on these
things that members of the audience which haven’t played the game would
have missed but maybe want to know about. He does a very good job at
cutting through different aspects of the game, so the script is very thought out
and a lot of planning has been involved. He loses points against competitors
such as The Angry Joe Show with his quality in audio and video, but also
humour value, but this is personal opinion. You may want a more straight
forward review, getting to the point, which is what this will be. Video games
review are different than reviews about music albums because they include
more information about how it will play out and if you will enjoy it. An album is
all personal preference as to if you will enjoy it or not, no one has the exact
same music taste. I enjoy listening to metal, but on days can find myself
listening to drum and bass. People have their preferences on video games
genres too, but everyone knows if it’s a bad game. When reviewing an album
you will look into it in depth, such as the lyrics, artwork, how it all connects
together, what the band did for inspiration. With a video game review on such
a big game such as BioShock by such a big company as 2K Games, they’re such
a big team it is not so much on a personal level what is put into the game, but
again, you can find yourself connecting with characters that other people
won’t. The audience can completely disagree with both music and video game
reviews so Elliot has tried to be very un-biased in the review, he has his
personal opinion thrown in but mostly just gives facts of the game that you
can’t disagree with. With some albums having parental advisory stickers on the
front meaning that the album contains hurtful language Bioshock is age rated
18 for its violence and language.
This may discourage some parents
from buying the CD/Game for
their children but that’s down to
what they think and that is why
these reviews are good is because
it lets the parents know what their
child will expect. I believe If you’re
thinking of picking up BioShock:
Infinite you should watch this
review by ‘Elliot’s Reviews’ first as
it gives you great, non-biased
argument about different aspects
