10 Video Games That Contradict Their Own Message

10. Eating Trash - Bioshock Infinite

Starting off with a rather small example, we have Bioshock Infinite. In many ways a game so fussed over until every detail runs like a Swiss watch, but alas the player cannot help but screw all that up, can they?

Mind you, it probably doesn't help for the game to set up main character Booker Dewitt as a badass, hard nosed private detective... and then have him eat half-chewed candy bars out of the trash. It's Bioshock tradition to make you scrounge for every bit of food and resource, but some stuff is just a little too disgusting for some characters.

Little details like that don't really pull you out of the experience, but they do leave you scratching your head why Booker, who HAS money for food and the mark that the city is looking for nice and covered up, would instead opt to just pull crap out of the waste bin and chow down on that instead of something actually cooked and ready to eat.
