I loved the mechanics of all three of gradually collecting and then levelling up new gear, and it's generally all really cool with no micro-transactions to be found anywhere, no online shops, just pure single player experience with all the DLC included in one neat package. All three share great atmosphere, a few scares along the way and give a general vibe that they were put together by people high on something. The third game opened things up quite a bit more into outside environments, brightness, more space and true weirdness but greatness. The first two Bioshock games are very much of the same style, both play out indoors in claustrophobic, confined spaces, or in the darkness of the deep water. I think I may have been even 'more' impressed had I first experienced the games as they were released, but better late than never. I I never played these games before, on PC or earlier consoles and tried to go in spoiler-free, and was very impressed when I did recently.

Considering how much effort 2K put into this collection, it's worth the price than most "remasters" being put out at slightly lesser price.

The extras are mind blowing with all DLC thrown in and new features like the developer commentary and concept arts. There is also no day one patch for any of the titles, so you can play these games out of the box without a problem. Frame rate is also 60 FPS in all with some dips here and there. Moreover, each game runs in 1080p and presents a crisp and vibrant image compared to the washed out and blurry image of the last gen versions. Simply put, the YouTube comparisons don't do this collection justice, because the texture quality has been bumped up by a lot in all three games. Significant effort was put into the first 2 games while Bioshock Infinite is just a port of the PC version set to "very high" graphics option (I compared it in the past and it was running on the low graphics on last gen systems). Significant effort was put into the first 2 games while All games in the package look noticeably better than the last gen console versions.
