I literally just started playing Bioshock Infinite today. How weird...
How far into the game do you meet Elizabeth? Im just at the bit where you have to use a bunch of Skylines to get to the closed off island, so I'm guessing I'm close.

Oh and in other games, i beat Gore Magala in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, which was a pretty good fight. Now onto the High Rank Caravan Quests.

You're almost there.  I think the skylines eventually take you to the statue where she's located.

Looks like Konami has something to hide:

Have these fools never heard of the Streisand effect?

Here's a mirror of the video, by the way:

As far as NPC's go, Elizabeth is one of the better ones.  She's constantly in cover, constantly giving you aid and keeps her smart alec remarks to the minimum.  She's a good 'un.

Ironbite-well...until later on that is.

The witcher 2's plot is completely fucking spastic.

Bioshock Infinite has a frickin' weird ending. Still digesting it really. Last game that made me (over)think things through like this was Beyond: Two Souls.

Fucking great game though! Shall i skip Clash in the Clouds and go right on to Burial at Sea?

I watched the Two Best Friends LP of Beyond: Two Souls, and it definitely made me think. Mostly I was thinking about David Cage's bad writing. At least it's better than Indigo Prophecy were the protagonist suddenly goes Super Saiyen for no reason.

If anyone hasn't seen or played Indigo Prophecy and thinks I'm exaggerating, go watch the Two Best Friends LP of it. You will laugh your ass of at the multiple times the games just shits itself and goes stupid. That game is entertaining as fuck to watch, but totally not for the reason the maker intended.
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

There is a fourth Five Nights game coming out.

At least this time there's something new - the games will apparently take place in a nightmare.

Just replayed Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Goddamn do I love Tommy Vercetti. He's by far my favourite GTA protagonist.

Bioshock Infinite: Burial at Sea Episode 1 was fun, but short. Hard too, even on medium. And that ending... what a kicker.

I like Tera in theory. It's just that, like with most MMOs, I get bored too quickly to play for more than a week at a time since I have no one to play with. That and the female "armor" designs are distracting in how hilariously awful they are.
