Its fun for awhile. Can get old eventually. Needs more content in maps and story, even if its just a night version of an existing map.
Overall, BG is a game with tense moments, hilarious physics, and rinse and repeat gameplay. Turn down your sound volume while in the plane!

Metro: Last Light has an impressive quality and quantity in it's varied gameplay, rich story, and strikingly beautiful environments, that is combined with pacing comparable to Half Life 2. Minor gripes appear rarely as I experienced this thrill ride all game developers need to be jealous of.

It's easy to feel immersed in the level design, and to build an immediate connection with the narrative woven throughout. Explore the radioactive surface of a war torned Russia, finding filters to survive, but turn around only to see two mutants staring at you, drooling with hunger. Have a guard stumble upon your wheels, and kill him upon surprise, with a knife to the head. Take on new enemy types as you progress through catacombs, swamps, and a moving train. And all the while making moral choices, and understanding your world, to decide the fate of the Metro.

Last Light offers a few glimpses of real scarcity in it's survival with more than enough filters to breath. There are off the path moments of chilling horror with mysterious happenings that, in retrospect, appear cliche and out of place underneath the reign of fire atmosphere. Forgivable interfaces for purchasing weapon customizations are forgotten as well once you return to the action.

And that action is usually of your choice. Choose to be a pacifist, a panther, or a hunter. For me it was satisfying to try as many different approaches as possible to liven up the gameplay as it did have moments of repetition - necessary as they may have been for the story. Those choices were leading me to an uncertain conclusion as to what ending I would achieve.

Yet, there is one thing that is certain. Last Light, like its predessecor, is always going to be on sale for a great price during Steam Sales. And that is a steal for what you get in return. Everything about this game communicates a front to back care for the finest of details. Personally, this is a game that sets the bar high for the first person shooter genre, and must be a call to action to studios. Envy this, and try to do better. Metro: Last Light is one hell of a ride. 9/10

Jaw dropping in it's fantastical fidelity and gripping story for the ages, Bioshock Infinite, takes you on an amazing journey not seen in any other game. The overflowing character and rich plotlines will allow you to forgive some chores of its often arena based gameplay. An ending like no other will leave you with infinite reasons to come back to play a game for the ages. BioShock Infinite gets a 9/10 or High Full Price.
