    I assume because BioShock Infinite didn't have enough cat and rabbit puns.

    Is that basically just a spoiler for both games? Oh whatever.

    Well yeah but say you've played Zero Escape and planned on playing Infinite, and you saw this thread, you could start putting together things like "oh they both have multi-verse or something? Is that why it is called Bioshock Infinite?" Personally I haven't played Zero Escape but due to your original post, it seems like someone can definitely get something spoiled from both games from reading the title of this thread.

    The first part of the post is completely part of the twist in at least one of those games.

    The fact that there is time travel stuff is not a spoiler. What is done with the time travel is very much a spoiler.

    The problem is that Bioshock Infinite wasn't really on the moon.

    That's like someone spoiling a character's death but not telling how or why, just that the character does die. Its still a spoiler.

    Not really a character death is a way bigger spoiler, than the fact that time travel is main not hidden at all mechanic of both games. That's like saying murder is as serious as voter fraud.

    @jz: But the idea of time travel and the multi-verse in Infinite is such a huge part of the storyline and one that is best seen firsthand going into it without having the idea that its even there. 2K and Irrational made it so that the advertising and gameplay demos they showed maybe eluded to some weird time travel/multi-verse thing, but it was never said outright.
    And though I agree about this time travel/multi-verse thing isn't as bad as spoiling a character's death, it still is spoiling something. I'm definitely glad I went into Infinite not knowing anything about it having any sort of time travel or anything. And I'm sure you did too.

    It's probably too late to change the thread title (I haven't made a thread since the site changed, so I don't know if you can change titles to threads now or not) but for future reference, you may not wanna compare Infinite and Zero Escape to each other story-wise for someone can definitely get spoilery things out of that. Its why on the last Bombcast, Brad kept away from comparing Infinite to a movie he was talking about, cause he didn't want to give anything away.

    You do realize that Infinite has only been out for less then 2 weeks right? Some consideration for spoilers would have been appreciated.

    I actually just finished Infinite last night, then this game five minutes ago.

    (VLR did it better.)

    Well much like a book VLR is all story being a visual novel, and bioshock is a FPS.

    Had bioshock been like an adventure game or something, the story would have worked better. Also then it would not have been made
