    What if I asked you to "spoil" the end of Bioshock Infinite for me to help me decide if I wanted to play?

        @avantgame It's the journey, not the destination that makes a great story worth your time. I'd spoil it for you if I knew how it ended.

        @avantgame Spoiling the ending of a game would be like being told a part of your future! You’d spend your whole time chasing an ’ideal’…

        @avantgame My hubby doesn't agree with me.:-) Everyone has their style that works for them. Do we all have same gaming styles?

        @avantgame I like to know what final goal is then have fun w/ process to get there. I try to look at end of games to know what's going on.

        @avantgame what makes a great story, is the journey to the end, not the end itself.

        @avantgame it wouldn’t make any sense. You have to play through it. But it’s worth it.

        @avantgame It's messed up but good. I was more interested on the plot than the actual game

        @avantgame I was ok when it was a book, but for some reason, given how BioShock games go, I'd want to tell you no, unless you insisted.

        @avantgame no. Bad! Just put it on easy, go through the shooting galleries as fast as possible and enjoy the ride.

        @avantgame I'd say that the experience of the whole game leads to the ending.
