		<blockquote>I found the FPS game-play an irritating interruption to an otherwise amazing game.

1999 mode gives enemies more health and damage. Oh, and dying costs more money, and restores the health of all enemies. That's about it.

It's worth noting that most enemies people perceive as "bullet sponges" actually have weaknesses that make their fights a cakewalk. You just need to figure those out.]]></description>

I know what you mean there. There were quite a few times I got into a fight with some of the slower-to-die enemies and just rolled my eyes because I wanted to proceed with the story rather than sit there getting my fun fly-by attacks ruined by a handyman shocking the sky-rails. I've seen a few people play it through on normal difficulty and it looks easy enough that downgrading to that would retain some of the satisfaction of the hard mode fights without being as difficult as reading a pop-up book and keeping the flow of the story quite quick.]]></description>

Just finished the game on hard difficulty and i found it pretty easy. Only died once when I got surprised by an Handyman.

I was considering starting a new game on 1999 but if that's barely more challenging, I don't think I will bother.
So can you tell me if it's worth it? :p]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[The ending isn't that confusing if you think laterally. Because I enjoyed particular sections of the game so much I would reset after completing them to play it again :)

The part after the credits would literally be the best jumpscare ever. I would wet myself.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[Well, took my time to finish it on hard, but finally did it. The ending is just pure mindfuck.. I probably wont replay it, because the fighting mechanics still sucked, even more than in bioshock 1 and 2. But i will definitely find someone on yt to watch so i could get my head around the game. 

The ending requires you to pretty much either replay or rewatch the game to understand it fully.

One more thing, if you havnt played it - try listening to all voxaphones, without listening to them allmost nothing will make sense, because main cinematics dont seem to cover/explain the complex story enough. In fact some major parts of story are only explained via voxaphones so ignoring them will make it really confusing.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[You can choose 1999 mode after finishing the game on any difficulty, by entering the konami code on the start screen or by editing a INI file.

Also....this game is absolutely amazing. I've never enjoyed the original Bioshock but Infinite is just excellent. I don't think I felt this way about a video game since Half Life, and really, this plays/feels/looks/sounds so much better.
Normally I don't play a video game twice, and certainly not straight away, but I'm looking forward to finishing Infinite for the second time already.]]></description>

		<blockquote>Doing another play through, highly recommend doing a run on 1999 mode if you have already completed it, the game is actually better on the second time round. 

Here's a 4 hour VOD of me playing 1999: http://www.twitch.tv/warhuryeah/b/383816713

There is a few gaps of black screen, just skip, and I talk later in the VOD.</blockquote>
