Don't get me wrong, absolutely loved it but also taking a break from it is a bad idea as I'm back to square one when I jump back in. It's a fantastic take on videogame narrative. Makes me want to give it another go tonight!

It's arguably the better game. I don't think Bioshock has aged particularly well and find it impossible to play. 2 has more interesting weapons and the defense sections add an interesting twist on the game. Also the narrative is far better than the first game where it's black and white ideologies , whereas bioshock 2 is more morally grey and explores much more interesting subjects. I do think both games are way too long though.
Then there's the Minerva's Den DLC which is a bite sized piece of excellence and far and away the best thing to come out of that franchise.

Thought infinite was a steaming pile of ****e. Looked gorgeous but was narratively vapid. The time travelling story wasn't satisfying and ending isn't as clever as it thought. And the combat was boring. How it handled race and class issues was very amateur.
As for the DLC the first is ok but I actually enjoyed the second which turned the game into a stealth game. Pity the storytelling was bad again and has one awful case of ken Levine trying to retroactively correct one of the worst and dumbest scenes in the original game.

I was a few years late to the infinite party. I played it but had no idea of the backlash against it, just remember the hype and glowing reviews. Thought it was utter ****e and was baffled by the reviews until I looked it up and saw the critical perception had changed quite a bit.
Hype is a hell of a drug.

This for me has always been far and away the weakest of the Halo series. The development was a nightmare and it really shows. It yo-yos from good levels to terrible levels and there's a whole lot more terrible levels.
The flood weren't all that fun to fight in the first Halo so bringing them back was a massive mistake, and bringing them back so early. Every level they are involved in is a pain to play.
The library style of repeating drab corridor level design also rears its ugly head way too many times. Even worse they had the balls to bring back a library level for the sequel and it's still not fun.
And then there's the brutes that replace the elites near the end of the game and they just aren't fun to fight. They are just annoying bullet sponges compared to the much better designed elites.
And yet the gun play carries the game to the end even if I can't say I really enjoyed it.
Actually looking forward to Halo 3. The 360 version was compromised with a 30 fps cap and very low resolution but I remember really enjoying it. Level design was a much higher standard and the flood only showed their face in two missions, one short and sweet, the other one of the very worst levels ever created for a FPS.

This game is awful. It got good reviews at release but that's because it was the last gasp of the Dreamcast because it's not good, even back then it couldn't have been considered good.
The game is obviously rushed. The story is complete nonsense with cutscenes seemingly taking place out of the context of what is happening in the game. There's 4 types of gameplay. The sonic/shadow stages are ok.... in that they kind of work and aren't as buggy but that's no ringing endorsement. The other Tails/Robotnik levels are awful, the racing is terrible and the Knuckles/Rouge stages are the worst. The final stretch of the game is the absolute worst with a terrible final shadow level where the gravity barely works and a terrible final level leading up to two bad boss battles. A complete mess of a game.
