Wow Thank you Brad for spoiling this game for me.

I thought you meant Infinite and I was racking my mind trying to figure out what it was that he said on the Bombcast that could be interpreted as a spoiler.

Then I clicked the thread and saw the Big Daddy and immediately started laughing.

I like this reaction from people. As I was in a nice talk with people on a another none gaming forum (FINE IT WAS AN ANIME ONE!) Someone was talking pretty liberaly about KOTOR and I went "aww man when you find out that ******* it was awesome!" (starred to save another thread like this!) and out of no were someones goes "Thanks I had intentions to play it and you spoiled it." I replied its a 7 year old game if you have not played it by now then your the one at risk.

Even the dude that was already pretty liberal on KOTOR went "Yeah you just dont do that!" then a fucking mod threatened me to watch it. So did this picture but in text form with films as I lost it. I left the forums and deleted my account since it got stupid and nasty.

Yes it wasn't a gaming site. However I like that I truly wasn't entirely in the wrong. Just one of those things that has stuck with me.....

Second note. I too have not played Bioshock 1 or 2. Completed infinite. I intend to play 1 and already know the "Twist" and I too was spoiled by Brad....except I went "Eh been out for years, my fault for not playing it sooner."

So the general consensus is 5 years is the window to still warn people about spoilers?

Now I know not to listen to this Bombcast. Thanks, OP.

Woah dude spoilers!

I never finished Bioshock either but I don't mind that Brad spoiled it, it's an old enough game . It was weird hearing that Jack is four though.

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh. Dammit. I am not going to rage at you or else Id be a hypocrite...just disappointing it happened. It is just I am recently going through the ER of P4 for the first time on part 64, and never been spoiled about anything untill just now....uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh curse my luck.

Actualy to be honest. I dont know who that is.....I know the Naoto secret its freaking obvious.....so...um...The origami killer is!!!! BATMAN!!

I'm on the side of you should always warn people about spoilers, and be wary of them. It's just considerate, and it allows people to enjoy things without worrying about being too "late" or anything. Ten years from now, someone could go back and want to play Bioshock, and wouldn't it be excellent if they could have the same amazing experience as we all did back then? Anything can always be new to someone, and it's not like people don't think spoilers can't be talked about, they just like fair warning when they arise. And fair warning doesn't hurt anybody.

Yeah the scene where that is explained has the creepiest baby picture ever in it.

It's been six years, get over it.

Aeris dies.

Spoilers for BioShock one in particular are not cool right now. The PS3 version of Infinite came with the first BioShock, I am sure there are some people still burning through it for the first time. What a dill hole.

How have you missed that spoiler for this long?

Also, old-ass game.

You are always going to spoil it for someone who has not played a game or seen a movie. Where do you draw the line? By this token you would never discuss plot points or have to say "spoiler warning" before every sentence.

Brad sometimes gets shit for spoiling recent releases but for a game this old, this is on you.

Snape kills Dumbledore!

Have you played Bioshock 2?

Have you played Minerva's Den?

If not, play them. They both have their own unique twists.

There's been research that suggests that spoilers don't actually ruin the experience, but yeah, as everyone else ITT have said, it's been out far too long to complain about spoilers.

Dude it's a 5 year old game.

In case you didn't knew. Five years.

I thought the whole bioshock twist was "meh" along with the gameplay that was boring. Never understood why people liked it except for art and atmosphere.

So jaded.

Basically no game had tried to do that kind of a twist in this era. To say it was "meh" undermines that no one was even trying.

Heh. Sorry. Well, part of me is sorry cause I didn't want to spoil the game legitimately for anyone. But part of me is kind of happy cause I'm a jerk.

It's actually a 5 year and 8 month old game.

He's just kidding. YOU ARE THE LITTLE SISTER

URT BVLESO EP YOU ASSHOLE I HATE YOU FUCK OFF DIE DRILL YOURSELF INTO A TV

I just got the game spoiled for me, not by Brad but by watching a bioshock video and one of the users having a specific name that sort of gave away some "family connections" if you know what I mean?

And to think that after 6 years I was so close to beating it without spoilers and then this happened. Hopefully it doesn't matter much, right guys?.... Guys?

mwh

That isn't the big twist. What you are talking about is revealed by the start of level 2.

dude it's a month old thread

@ripelivejam: Man, I was going to read this thread from the top but saw this first. Use spoiler tags next time, thanks for ruining the twist for me pal.

1. Thread is a month old.

2. Game has been out for 6 years. There's a statute of limitations on spoilers, and 6 years far exceeds it.

I don't really care about getting a game spoiled. For my friends who really do care, I agreed to follow the rule that after 1 year a game's release its fair to spoil it. While I understand you may feel somehow robbed of that "first hand experience", I can't Imagine not being able to talk about a pivotal moment movie, book, or TV show especially when your critic or analyze it. This is not directed at OP, just people who complain about spoilers.

I think it's a five year old game, dude.

I couldn't agree more! But this thread is funny nonetheless :)

I can't imagine the type of asshole who would sit down and actively design a big spoiler poster, ruining several movies for anyone who stumbles upon it.

If any form of narrative experience can be "ruined" by a simple sentence, it wasn't worth it in the first place.

The planet of the apes dvd cover is a huge spoiler, does not "ruin" the movie in the least bit.

Dude, it's a five year old game.

@themangalist: Bruce willis is a ghost the whole time

@levio said:

I think you're forgetting a lot of Bioshock 1 or something, because there is a significant "family connections" plot twist WELL after level 2. I'm not even sure I'm remembering the thing in the second level you're thinking of, but I can all but guarantee it's not the significant moment that Neku is referring to.

Sorry to hear that the game was spoiled for you mate.

@jouseldelka: It's a t-shirt design: http://www.threadless.com/product/844/Spoilt

And this guy did design of it: http://www.ollymoss.com/

Bruce Willis kills Dumbledore in the Matrix the whole time.

I feel like Video Games have the best platform for amazing twists like Bioshock, yet are rarely utilised. It all comes down to storytelling I guess, and if devs even want to put that much effort and thought into that, but I really wish there'd be more "Snape Kills Dumbledore" of Video Games.

FUCK

it's 2013 dude and your were listening to a 3 hour podcast about vidya games. Take some responsibility for a change.

It's a 5 year old, dude.

@feanor Holy hell what the hell is your malfunction?

@chirotera: Its a 13 year old book? There are many spoilers in this thread younger than that. The point of this thread is that if things are old its okay to spoil.

@feanor Even if you think you're being cute to prove a point I cannot believe you would be that dense. Seriously, there are no words for the level of stupidity you are putting on display.

I'm hoping, at the least, that you will remove your post before a mod is forced to delete it. If there was any hope, I'd hope they would ban your idiot ass.

@chirotera: Dude its been 13 years

@feanor It's also an extremely popular TV show that hasn't yet reached that point in the narrative. So that point you're trying to make about spoilers never being too old, while a good one, is completely undermined by the ignorance you are putting on display.

It's not funny. At all.

Wow, what a dick. "CHECK OUT ALL THESE SPOILERS LOL."
