Honestly, there is a certain hypocrisy in writing that there are way too many Bioshock trailers and still posting them. If there's one big title to get excited about, even as a jaded, cynical gamer, it's Bioshock Infinite and I can see why people think descriptions like that, kind of unnecessarily, suck the fun out of it.

Ego and interjection are unnecessary. State what it is. Post it. Let us watch the video and react to it.

This thing about Giant Bomb needs to always be cute or funny or clever or Game-Spotty is unnecessary.

What you -- bunk of you -- are good at is simply posting news so we know what's happening. We invest in building a wiki we can refer to how video games are made and received.

State facts please.

I demand you remove your personality from your website!

Yes, because Giantbomb is only a site made for archiving HARD FACTS about video games. The personality and fun is bad. Why the fuck are you using this site if all you want is a bunch of soulless news? Go to one of the blogs. Seriously. The fact that I see this anger here and not on other videos just shows me that people are angry that Bioshock Infinite is getting joked about. I for one think the game looks fantastic, but I'm not going to get pissed off at the cynicism that their own marketing has brought upon them. GIANTBOMB HAS NEVER BEEN THE PLACE TO GET EMPTY SOULLESS NEWS, are you new or something? There are a million places you can go to for that, but Giantbomb is the only place I can go to for their specific style of coverage. Why would you want to ruin something that honestly shouldn't affect you at all?

(This is in response to the original quote, I am aware of the sarcasm in the response, I just didn't feel like rooting through all the comments to find this one pissed-off entitled guy's original post.)

I've been trying really hard to avoid getting hyped for this game to avoid potential disappointment, but this game is looking damn good.

Not sure why this is showing up in the subscriber video list, probably got that tag by accident.

Game looks amazing, if they manage to screw this up, I'll be done with Bioshock games. The sheer amount of potential with this setting, the mechanics and characters, yeah... Please don't fuck this up.

@iodizedjoe: This whole site is based on the idea of personal view and personal touch from the crew. If you want neutral news, go pretty much anywhere else on the internet. Please go. We have enough whining here as it is.

If nothing else, this game has an aesthetic going that absolutely can't be beat. The logo has a certain stars-and-stripes flair to it that resonates nicely with the whole...je ne sais quoi..."America makes the world right! Bigger, better!" mentality of building a city in the sky. I know it wasn't America specifically that built the city but...whatever, I can't articulate exactly what it is that makes this game so interesting. It just looks good, that's all. And this is coming from someone who lost interest in the original Bioshock.

Not that it's my only center of interest, but have they reduced the size of her breasts ? I recall Elizabeth being a point of contention for certain people back when the game was announced, specifically, her cleavage. I guess I'm disappointed that a studio conceded to what is puritan pressure.

I just finished reading BioShock Infinite: Mind in Revolt. That, combined with this awesome trailer means I'm super excited now! The novella is kind of a rip-off at $3 even though it was a really great read.

she looks different since the last time i saw this game which was like e3 of last year

They did changed her a little bit. Someone cosplayed her, and they decided to model the game character more after her and used her for the box art and some press stuff i believe.

how many redesigns does this make?

The quantity of Elizabeth cleavage shown has varied slightly, some more, some less, throughout preview builds and trailers. It's almost like Ken Levine is constantly coming into the office over the weekends to change the parameter on that by 5 or 10 mm one way or the other.

I am glad they toned down Elizabeth's chest. I remember in the first videos for this game she had gigantic knockers and its looked pretty silly

Worst thing about the new site is that you can see the authors name on the front page. I no longer get to see a snarky title, guess that it was Alex's doing, and be proven right every single time.

continue to bring the snark, bomb. i'm a patron on account of your editorial- if i wanted to read sterile and lifeless copy, there's plenty of internet to find that on.

I take 'snark' to mean negative & cynical, and that's what I mean when I talk about Alex's titles on most things. As I've said before, I've followed him long enough to know he probably doesn't quite mean it that way, but in news articles it certainly feels that way and completely puts me off.

@shtinky: I'm with you on that, and when The Last of Us comes out it will be the same thing all over again, like seriously man there's tons of voice actors out there give them some work. I feel like all these AAA titles use Troy Baker as a emergancy cast incase they feel they don't have time to keep searching for vocal talent.

Don't listen to this please guys, Giant Bomb's wit and personality is the reason I choose Giantbomb over all the other Game sites. Keep up the Great Work.

When most of what is said is dismissive and snarky it influences those that only drink Kool-Aid from Giant Bomb's cup. I like this site and the guys that run it for the most part, but the need to relentlessly interject jaded opinion is exhausting.

If I didn't know any better I'd think 2K Games wants us to know this game is coming out, maybe Sony should take some notes on how to market games a month out.

Fuck all the naysayers. There's not really a lot out there with such artistic inspiration, let alone on this scale and funded by a big publisher.

I trust Irrational to engage me on multiple levels.

Do people not see these kinds of settings and ideological backdrops as a breath of fresh air? Everyone else just wants to be James Cameron.

I have to repeat what another commenter posts repeatedly: you can always tell an Alex headline. There's always an incredible amount of snark. Alex, you are the maestro of Snark.

I've come to appreciate Alex over the years, but the snark still puts me off.
