Uhhhhh, as I said in my panopto video, I really like the music and sound design for this game. A little more specifically, I enjoy hearing each vigor, DeWatt’s voice, the pastor voices, and most of the enemy characters as well. When the game wants to be spooky it gets spooky, when it wants to […]
I was played bioshock infinite on the PS4 which was an extremely fun change of pace from portal on the PC. I have pretty much been restricted to playing games on console and getting back to the controller was great. I’m pretty sure the version of the game on ps4 was remastered to the graphics […]
This section was really, really long. At the same time, I didn’t really mind that much because I was enjoying playing through it. One of my favorite things so far has been the vigors; I feel like they provide a very interesting contribution to fighting and game play with their unique attributes. At the same […]
First, let me just say that I really like this game! It’s a lot of fun and I enjoy the scavenging aspect of it more than I thought I would. It’s awesome to find all the voxophones and piece together the perspectives (I got way more excited than I should have when I found one […]
After continuing to play the game, I have become even more interested in the story and I like the game a lot. The story aspect of the game makes it interesting to play, it makes the player feel like their choices really matter. I am interested to find out more about the backstory of Columbia […]

One major aspect of Bioshock Infinite that I loved from the start was the narrative they built around the game. Dissimilar to Portal which dropped you into a cube and had the “figure it out yourself” feel, the beginning of Bioshock began with a story and put the player into a setting. Having this story […]
After reading all of the articles, I can understand where each author is coming from in the argument, but I came to my own personal opinion that video games do not cause violence. Most of these articles support my idea, but I want to give a quick explanation of my experiences with video games in […]
The four articles we read address the common conception that violence in video games promotes violent behavior in players. The main point made across the articles is that there is no proven correlation between violence in video games and violent behavior in the real world. Despite claims that VG violence increases aggression across younger generations, […]
The four readings for today all discussed the effect of violent video games in our society. I found the article “Violent video games make people violent. But so do pictures of snakes” to be particularly interesting. This article compared the rush after playing a video game to the feeling during athletic competitions or seeing something […]
