About this episode
The episode discusses the third entry in the Bioshock series, Bioshock Infinite, and its place within the franchise.
With only a few games in the series, Bioshock is one of the most beloved gaming franchises of all time. And part of the reason is its deep stories and consistent quality across all 3 games. But despite its acclaim, the guys hadn't ever finished the 3rd entry in the series, Bioshock Infinite, until recently. Does it reach the heights of the first game, or is the modernized veneer more of a facade?
