Irrational Games Announces 1999 Mode in BioShock® Infinite
Gamers face permanent consequences of their in-game decisions in unforgiving new mode

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--2K Games announced today that BioShock® Infinite from Irrational Games will feature a new form of play- the 1999 Mode, designed to challenge players in a variety of ways – each requiring substantial commitment and skill development.

"We want to give our oldest and most committed fans an option to go back to our roots"
.1999 Mode is a way of playing designed for gamers who long for the days of games that demanded more of the player. It will include tweaks and features that BioShock fans will not experience in a standard play-through of BioShock Infinite, no matter the difficulty level.

"We want to give our oldest and most committed fans an option to go back to our roots," said Ken Levine, Creative Director of Irrational Games. "In 1999 Mode, gamers face more of the permanent consequences of their gameplay decisions. In BioShock Infinite, gamers will have to sweat out the results of their actions. In addition, 1999 Mode will demand that players pick specializations, and focus on them.

"I'm an old school gamer. We wanted to make sure we were taking into account the play styles of gamers like me. So we went straight to the horse's mouth by asking them, on our website, a series of questions about how they play our games. 94.6 percent of respondents indicated that upgrade choices enhanced their BioShock gameplay experience; however, 56.8 percent indicated that being required to make permanent decisions about their character would have made the game even better."

In addition to these permanent decisions, 1999 Mode will feature demanding weapon, power, and health management. The mode also takes a much harder stand on player respawning, sending the gamer directly to a "Game Over" screen if he or she lacks the resources to be brought back to life. It's not for the faint of heart.

About BioShock Infinite

BioShock Infinite, developed by Irrational Games, won over 75 editorial awards at E3 2011, including the Game Critics Awards' Best of Show.

In this first-person shooter, the player assumes the role of former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, who is sent to Columbia to rescue Elizabeth, a young woman imprisoned there since childhood. He develops a relationship with Elizabeth, augmenting his abilities with hers so they may escape from a city literally falling from the sky. DeWitt learns to fight foes in high-speed Sky-Line battles, engage in combat both indoors and amongst the clouds, and harnesses the power of dozens of new weapons and abilities.

BioShock Infinite is in development for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Games for Windows®, and is not yet rated by the ESRB.

Modalità "hardcore" (o se preferite, per giocatori vecchio stampo) denominata 1999 Mode in Bioshock Infinite, apporterà tutta una serie di modifiche alla struttura base che renderanno l'esperienza più impegnativa. L'iniziativa prende spunto da una serie di quesiti posti online all'utenza della saga.

Bell'idea e senza dubbio da provare. Mi mettete anche il PC nel titolo del topico però uffa

Trovo che questa frase sia un po' segno dei tempi che cambiano, o meglio che son molto cambiati.

Ma chiaramente la portata è mooooolto più ampia del solo Bioshock Infinite che anzi per quanto mi riguarda nel contesto odierno è da apprezzare nel voler ricercare un approccio meno "telefonato" ( = ultrafacile ) rispetto a tanti prodotti della concorrenza.

[Biggy]

Non ricordo se il primo Bioshock era uscito per Ps3 a posteriori oppure se non era stato ancora rilasciato (e questo spiegherebbe l'inclusione nell'Infinite)  :mmmm:

[Turrican3]

No, poi era uscito anche per PS3.

[Blasor]

Nessuna menzione per collector's di sorta ancora? Se mi ci mettono un altro vinile è la fine, non rispondo di me

[Turrican3]

Visti i precedenti lo do' praticamente per scontato che tirino fuori una (o più!?) collector's edition.
