Bioshock Infinite was messy, self indulgent wank. But with great art.

Bioshock always felt like a dumbed down System Shock to me. The setting, art, voice acting were outstanding but in the end it was such a shallow gameplay experience and the story ran out of steam halfway through. I know it still has its fans but personally I wasn't compelled to finish it.
