BioShock Infinite's Columbia city gets Minecrafted
8
A team of crafters led by one "DrKamina" has pieced together BioShock Infinite's floating city, Columbia, in the suddenly popular indie creation game Minecraft. The 3D model incorporates design elements adapted form screenshots and concept art, video and, of course, sheer imagination.
The group's vision of Columbia is housed on DrKamina's "City of Rapture" server, which is also home to adorable recreations of BioShock's underwater utopia and Half-Life 2's City 17 and Black Mesa. Visitors be warned: Kamina and company run a tight server, as evidenced by the prominent graveyard for the banned. RIP Snifflles, Errorz and Deerman -- we hardly knew ye!

Is this just their idea of what it looks like, or is there a game map floating around somewhere I don't know about?

honestly, i don't get this minecrafted stuff.... it's nice to keep the old spirit of building landscapes and scenes with legoblocks, but it's still beyond my universe of enjoyment.
but hey, there are people out there spending two months of their lifes rebuilding the earth with ugly blocks. who am i to judge them? the results sometimes look impressive, zoomed out far far away.... im just rambling and should try to get some sleep.... go on nerds, make the world a blockier place :)

I look at creations like this, and then at my own piddly minecraft creations, and I get that same feeling I had when I was playing Little Big Planet. Other players creations are always going to be more awesome than mine.
Having said that, Minecraft is my new crack and no one is going to take it from me.

We are proud of you DrKamina for making such spectacular things in Minecraft. We at mIKe’s ReVeNGe can’t wait until your next project so we can be part of that as well.
