OK people as ico created Bioshock Thread I didn't found any Bioshock Infinite Thread when we have so much about this game right now. So I am collecting all news at one place and creating this for discussion of this game to be released in 2012
About the Game
Welcome to the city of Columbia. Floating amongst the clouds, cruising far above sea level, this is a place unlike any you've ever seen. Please enjoy your voyage...
The third game in the popular Bioshock series, BioShock: Infinite breaks away from the underwater setting of the first two games to take players into a floating city held aloft by dirigibles. The game is set in 1912. You play as Booker DeWitt, a disgraced former private detective who's picked up a new case. Your goal is to find Elizabeth, a young woman who's gone missing and return her unharmed. The only problem is that she's being kept on this flying city. Columbia was once a symbol of America's success as a nation, floating around the world as a traveling World's Fair, a marvel of human innovation. But strange things have happened since Columbia's unveiling in 1900, and now the city has disappeared into the clouds. DeWitt knows how to find it, but over the years stories have been told about Columbia having unlawful heavy armament and deranged citizenry. Do not expect this to be a pleasure cruise. Source IGN
So, this isn't a sequel... or prequel... or... whatever?
BioShock: Infinite isn't a sequel to BioShock or BioShock 2, and it doesn't seem like a prequel as such to either of those games. Instead, consider BioShock Infinite a "spiritual successor" - much like the original BioShock lifted elements of gameplay and storytelling from the System Shock games, BioShock Infinite is taking ideas from the first game and expanding on them in a recognizable but new way.
What's the Story?
Players assume the role of Booker Dewitt, a has-been private detective hired to find the missing Elizabeth. His search leads him to the floating city of Columbia, where he finds a disturbing world of patriotism gone poisonous. And... that's all we know, really.
What's the game like?
BioShock: Infinite is, at first glance, an awful lot like BioShock. Players can find tonics (see: plasmids) that give them special abilities such as telekinesis, but the tonics seem to offer more finesse than plasmids did. Irrational's video demos of BioShock: Infinite show finer control of the Telekinesis ability, allowing for Booker to use weapons hands free.The upgraded engine in Infinite has also changed the weapon balancing and powers considerably. Irrational head Ken Levine has stressed that fights will involve as many as 15 enemies, requiring players to use those new and upgraded powers in more creative and destructive ways. The big open spaces have also made long-range combat a factor.
Then there are the rails. Columbia is actually made up of a number of pieces held aloft by giant balloons, and these pieces are connected by "skylines," which can be traversed with a special hook mount attachment that will send Booker rocketing along at about 80 miles an hour. This would be nerve-wracking enough without the countryside thousands of feet below, or the aggressive citizens of Columbia that Booker will have to take on while riding the skylines.
Anand, Kindly re-size those pics. It's really annoying to have those heavy images load, every time we open the thread.

‘BioShock: Infinite’ Cosplay Of Elizabeth — A Blue-Eyed Beauty
and 2 more (NSFW):
Spoiler:
Quote:
According to her deviantArt page, her name is Anna and goes under the Internet hacker-alias ormeli. Hailing all the way from Moscow, Russia, Anna is a veteran cosplayer who has also, on occasion, played the role of Ellie Langford from Dead Space 2 and Batman’s femme fatale, Poison Ivy.
She’s also a huge fan of Irrational Games’ popular BioShock series – that unfortunately up till now – lacked a character that Anna could use to display her own amazing set of cosplay powers. Logically, this changed thanks to BioShock: Infinite and with the introduction of Elizabeth, whose raven black hair and jeweled blue eyes have been captured perfectly by Anna.
This has definitely got to be the most gorgeous cos-play costume and girl. THE END.
