Retrotopia Talks BioShock Infinite

Welcome to another episode of Retrotopia: Another Video Game Podcast. This is a show where we, Alan, Brian, and Sam, get together to discuss video games from years gone by. We like to look at video games from the perspective of lifelong gamers and how they hold up in the retro sphere. This week we are discussing BioShock Infinite, a multi-platform game released in 2013 that takes players high above the clouds to the floating city of Columbia. A breathtaking paradise built on patriotism, religion, and denial. You play as Booker DeWitt, a down-on-his-luck private investigator sent to “bring us the girl and wipe away the debt.” But the girl, Elizabeth, is no ordinary captive. She can open tears in reality itself. What starts as a rescue mission soon spirals into a mind-bending journey through parallel worlds, moral contradictions, and the crumbling ideals of American exceptionalism. It’s a first-person shooter that mixes intense gunfights, skyhook traversal, and reality-shifting powers with one of the most ambitious stories in modern gaming.
