Bioshock Infinite and Forge of Empires

I've just finished playing Bioshock Infinite and thoroughly enjoyed it. The latest game in the Bioshock saga was different to the others but captured the strangeness of the flying city Columbia with some great weapons and magic effects. The star was Elizabeth, the young girl that you have to find and then release from capture. Her animation and voice effects were sublime and her usefulness in supplying you extra ammunition and health packs when required a real benefit.

I started the game at my son's house last year and then bought my own copy just before Christmas. So it has taken me a while to finish it. At the same time, I've been playing Forge of Empires which is very addictive and takes up far too much of my game playing time. It is a typical build a city by working resources, trading goods and some battles. The recent Guild versus Guild wars are not to my liking though so I might be ceasing to play shortly, giving me more time to play the other games that I received at Christmas. Worth a picture though:
