BioShock Infinite PAX panel video explores the importance of relationships, crying in tiny rooms
7
PAX can be a fantastic catalyst for news and breaking information about upcoming games, but it also provides a unique window into the development process that we as consumers don't often get a chance to see. This year's BioShock Infinite panel, for instance, dove into the art of voice-acting, the challenges associated with dynamic story telling in a first person environment, and the benefits associated with crying in a 5-by-6 closet while strangers viciously berate you.
The panel, hosted by G4's Adam Sessler, starred Irrational Games' Creative Director Ken Levine, as well as voice actors Troy Baker and Courtnee Draper, who voice Infinite's Booker DeWitt and Elizabeth, respectively. The group covered a wide range of topics regarding Infinite's lead characters, their motivations, and the somewhat unorthodox techniques used to extract such emotional performances from the actors.
Despite being fairly F-bomb heavy, the above video doesn't disclose any information we weren't already aware of, so the spoiler-cautious among you need not worry.

I can't wait for this and the Bioshock Vita. Every video I see for this makes me more and more excited.

Maybe I'd watch xplay if they let Adam act like this instead of like he has severe ADHD and he does coke.

Adam Sessler is so lame nowadays. His facial reactions during the video are ridiculous. What a tool.

I have to say I enjoy Troy Baker's voice work in other projects he has been a part of (some of his appearances at various Cons are also hilarious) and I really look forward to seeing his voice work with Booker. Courtnee Draper is pretty awesome as Elizabeth as well. This game just needs to be out already.
