Infinite Undiscovery

Anybody who is anybody who has played the Bioshock series knows what to expect.  1960's America, magic, steampunk, an unfathomable environment, and some ridiculously creepy/unique story elements surrounding a plethora of mysterious characters.  Basically, sheer awesomeness.  Bioshock 1 kicked some serious ass, the game turned heads and made a huge impact on the industry showing how unique FPS games really could be (looking at you COD).  Bioshock 2 was still fun, but no where near as innovative or cool really, it felt more like an expansion pack for the first game, but it isn't the worst experience.  Now Bioshock Infinite is in stores and it promises a new look on the old feel.  Feel like a trip to see a whole new world?

Playing on the Edge: Borderlands 2 Review

Borderlands 2 has been an epically fun adventure to dive into.  Any fan of the first knows the Borderlands title to mean crazy cell-shaded bandits, beasts, and other baddies to stand between you and your optional team of vault hunters.  I thoroughly enjoyed the first game in the series.  It offered a colorful cast of NPC's to interact with and help out along with a very MMO feeling level system that colored your damage and health throughout the game, mostly to prevent you from going too far ahead without properly leveling.  With full co-op multiplayer in tow Borderlands 2 hits the bricks with a ton of smart talking characters and a new cast of vault hunters to tangle with this new storyline.  Those who enjoyed the fresh look and feel Borderlands offers the FPS genre will not be disappointed by it's aggressively awaited sequel.
