5/24 Bombcast: More LA Noire, Witcher 2, Bioshock Infinite, E3!

I tore through this week's Bombcast last night and I have to say I am a lot more excited for Bioschok Infinite than I was before.  It's sounding like something pretty spectacular and just kind of off the wall.  Also, couldn't believe my email about covering E3 was actually read on this episode.  It's the first email I've sent in and I had sent it just before last week's Bombcast, so I just assumed that was that.  I kind of had it on as background noise during emails while I folded laundry and hearing my name aloud definitely threw me the fuck off.  It was really cool to hear some insight on that stuff....and yeah, working E3 still sounds pretty awful.  I went to my first gaming expo at PAX East this past March and just trying to get to everything on my own self created schedule was stressful.  Pretty sure I'd have some sort of aneurysm if I was stuck with the task of covering E3.  Personally I'm pumped to hear what news comes out of the show as well as some of the 3 hours of footage from whatever the hell Jeff was doing at the pre-E3 event last week.

Anything else anyone would like to talk about from this week's Bombcast?

Im with you on Bioshock. Couldn't have cared less before listening but now its definitely on my radar.

This.  Considering buying the first game.

More like Bioshlock!
 
But yes, Infinite sounds downright amazing. If you really want to fall down a rabbit-hole, track down a copy of System Shock 2. It's a lot less refined than Bioshock, but way, way more tense.

@Mahonay: probably- there'll be a short lull in games for me in a couple weeks so I might go see how cheap I can get it.  Also, this plus a game next month (totally different tone, but something I'm into) plus LA Noire plus Borderlands last year is starting to make me think 2K is on to something with the games they publish.

@mfpantst: You HAVEN'T played the Bioshock games!? Get on it ASAP. Bioshock 2 is great as well, They are both pretty cheap now as well.

I kinda skipped the bioshock talk, really not that interested about it.

Ok so i thinks I may just get bioshock, and at some other point get bioshock 2 so I can play Minerva's Den.  That being said- as far as BioShock 1 goes, is there any reason to get the PC version as opposed to the xbox version?

So I went back and looked up the ridiculous Konami MGS2 E3 reveal documentary that was mentioned on the Bombcast.  I pulled some screens from that video...
