BioShock & Bioshock Infinite are first-person shooter video games developed by Irrational Games and published by 2K Games. BioShock::The game takes place in 1960, in the fictional underwater city of Rapture which has been ravaged by a civil war that's left the city as a dystopia. Jack, a man that stumbles upon Rapture after his plane crashes near the Rapture bathysphere terminus, is quickly guided by a man named Atlas via radio to help protect himself from "Splicers" and to save his family from the ruthless hands of Andrew Ryan, the city's creator. BioShock Infinite::The game takes place in 1912 in Columbia, a city suspended in the air through a combination of "quantum levitation" and giant blimps and balloons. Booker DeWitt, a former disgraced member of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, is sent to recover the girl Elizabeth from her captivity aboard Columbia for the last twelve years under Comstock. Booker finds the city in violent political strife and works with Elizabeth to understand why she was held captive and the secrets of Columbia's creation.
