Bioshock Infinite, in loving tribute to the first game, begins with a man at a lighthouse in the middle of the ocean. But rather than descending leagues under the sea, the lighthouse launches the man into the sky, to the flying city of Columbia. He's there to find a girl and deliver her to his creditors to wipe away his debt. Naturally, things soon take a turn for the worse, and the man—Booker DeWitt—soon finds himself fighting the entire city to accomplish his mission.
This is a Bioshock game, but rather than continuing the story of Rapture, Bioshock Infinite takes us to new heights in Columbia. There are plenty of other differences to go along with the change in scenery, but the soul and many game systems remain the same. That being said, while Columbia is horrifyingly fascinating to explore and the plot is admittedly well-constructed, I just don't feel as charmed by Bioshock Infinite as I do by the original.
