A whole bunch of new BioShock: Infinite videos have dropped recently. Right here in this very news article I’ve dropped in a TV spot that will do very little to ease your burning need to consume everything Skyoshock. However, what I’m also going to do is link you to two videos in which creator Ken Levine narrates a couple of sections of gameplay for IGN, dropping spoilers left, right and centre. I haven’t looked at them, except to verify that they are real, because I want to remain pure. You should, too. But if not: Here’s Booker’s arrival in Columbia, and here’s a carnival and vigor demonstration. BioShock: Infinite releases on March 26 which is pretty convenient for the coming long weekend, no?

You remember how Green Man Gaming were offering free copies of Civilization V or The Darkness and other games when you pre-order BioShock Infinite? Well, now you can not only get those games, but a free copy of XCOM: Enemy Unknown as well.

Keep it for yourself! Give it to a friend. Give it to me! Any of these things are possible.

Head on over to the Green Man Gaming site and see if you’re tempted — it’s only $52, and you’ll get BioShock Infinite, the original BioShock, XCOM: Enemy Unknown and another title of your choice. That is some pretty mad value, by anybody’s reckoning.

You have until 4:00 AM AEDT on Wednesday 27th to put your order in to qualify for these bonuses.

Irrational and 2K have asked us to pass on that the following video does contain a few sequences designed for the game’s MA15+ audience — up to and including an unfortunate meeting between a man’s face and the skyhook tool used to travel around in the game. If you don’t enjoy violent content, perhaps this is a trailer for you to skip!

For all that, though, it’s another excellent look at the game and shows off why I’m very, very excited to get my hands on it. It launches on Tuesday 26, too — so not very long to wait.

At a recent BioShock Infinite showing, games.on.net had the chance to sit down with Irrational’s Bill Gardner, User Experience Specialist on the upcoming game. We spoke to him about all things PC, including Irrational’s dedicated PC support team, how DX11 is improving their experience, and the difficulties in making characters like Elizabeth interact well with the player. Take a look below, or download the video in HD from our file library.

Excellent news this morning from our friends at Green Man Gaming: pre-purchase BioShock Infinite from their store, and not only will you get the game itself but you’ll also get the original BioShock and another free game of your choice from 2K’s catalogue.

Free games on offer include The Darkness II, Mafia II, Spec Ops: The Line, BioShock 2 and Civilization V. Click here to check out all the available bundles — you could end up saving yourself a whole bunch of money. Personally, getting all the BioShock games in one click seems like a pretty sweet deal to me.

If you’ve already purchased BioShock Infinite from GMG, don’t worry! They’re backdating this offer so you don’t miss out. Look out for an email from them shortly with the details of how to claim your free games.

Finally in sadder news, 2K have noticed that Green Man weren’t price-gouging us on the BioShock Infinite DLC Season Pass and asked them to up the price for Australians — but don’t worry, as the ANZ discount voucher now works on it. Drop GMGAU-3J9MF-MUINW on that sucker and knock 30% off the price.

We’ve received word from overseas that 2K will be launching a BioShock Infinite DLC Season Pass, which — as is the custom in this day and age with AAA releases — can be purchased up front to save you around 30% on the cost of three, further individual DLCs.

Information on what the three pieces of DLC you’re buying access for will be has not been detailed, but our press release from the UK indicates that purchasers of the Season Pass will receive the ‘Early Bird Special Pack’ for free, which contains “four pieces of exclusive gear, a Machine Gun Damage Upgrade, a Pistol Damage Upgrade, a gold skin for both weapons and five Infusion bottles that allow players to increase their health, their shield durability or their ability to use Vigors by increasing the quantity of Salts they can carry.”

UPDATE: Thanks to PalZer0 for pointing out the DLC Season Pass is now available on Steam to Australians for $30. Given that we’re being gouged another $10 for having the temerity to live in Australia, games.on.net officially recommends that you purchase your Season Pass through Green Man Gaming instead, where it is only $19.99 (before 2K raises the price).

As we ramp up to the launch of BioShock Infinite next month, more and more trailers continue to appear out of the ether. Today, we see the ‘Lamb of Columbia’ trailer, starring Elizabeth — a small girl who is a lot more dangerous than she appears. As we saw in our massive preview, Elizabeth has the ability to drag elements from parallel universes into this world, changing the environment around you. Presumably, her abilities also go a lot deeper than that. Take a look below.

At a recent preview event, games.on.net had the chance to sit down with Bioshock Infinite‘s Bill Gardner, Director of Design at Irrational Games. We spoke about gear customisation, linearity in gameplay, how to handle the colourful racism of the 1920′s, and striking the right balance between ‘gamey’ and immersive.

Settle down for the second episode of Columbia: A Modern Day Icarus, a series which aims to separate truth from fiction in the world of BioShock: Infinite. The first episode was pretty great, but this one features the Songbird, so it wins hands – or rather wings – down. BioShock: Infinite will finally be ours on March 26.

Bioshock: Infinite starts, much as Bioshock starts, atop a stormy ocean with the player approaching a lighthouse. This time, though, we aren’t descending into the deepest, darkest bowels of the ocean. Instead, as we’ve all known since that fish tank was symbolically smashed in the first Infinite trailer, we are ascending into heaven.

Bioshock: Infinite is on the way, and the trailers are rolling out like crazy to prove it. We have a new trailer today, the ‘City in the Sky’ trailer, which shows us around Columbia a bit more. It’s all sort of wacky with a very dreamlike quality, carnival sideshows and suspicious potions to drink.

And people. People! Perhaps I’ve been blind up to this point, but I just assumed Skyoshock was going to be like the original Bioshock games where all its people were either dead or crazy. To see real people, in a Bioshock game that aren’t coming at you with a kitchen knife? It’s simply unheard of!

Well, enough from me. You should check out the trailer and think your own things. Then form those things into sentences and write them in the comments section below! The future.

Green Man Gaming took one for the team earlier in the month and created a permanent discount code that would give 30% off to all games where publishers had forced them to jack up their price for Australians. Now they’ve just sent word that BioShock Infinite has been added to the list of games where the 30% off coupon will work.

So — if you want BioShock Infinite for $55 instead of the $80 you’re being slugged with on Steam, head over to Green Man Gaming and pop in the code GMGAU-3J9MF-MUINW to give yourself a nice handy discount.

The code is also valid on other price-jacked games, so if you want Borderlands 2 or its DLC Season Pass, or perhaps Spec Ops: The Line, Civilization V: Gods & Kings, or XCOM: Enemy Unknown, then the code will work there as well. Enjoy!

BioShock Infinite launches on March 26.
