BioShock: The Collection (out now)

Coming out September 13th. Steam users who have purchased Bioshock 1 or even Bioshock 2 with the second game's DLC, will get a free upgrade to the remastered versions of the games. (they're slight remasters to improve overall graphic quality but eh) Infinite on PC is the same so that's not getting a remaster, but as you can imagine its getting a direct port to the PS4 and Xbox One.

So if you've never played the series or never owned a hard copy of it, and you've thought about getting it for awhile, here's an option you can have.

If you're a Prime member you can save $10 when you pre-order instead of paying $60 for a digital copy or getting it anywhere else.

Discuss if interested.

Bioshock is currently £3 and Bioshock 2 is £2 on G2A. Bioshock Infinite is £4.31.

Oh, and the whole collection is like £8.

Just so nobody spends more than they need to.

It's a free upgrade on Steam because it seems like it's just 1080p/60fps, which has been available on PC since day 1.

Basically G2A is able to undercut everyone else because they sell stolen goods and keys gained from currency manipulation. Because this against the ToS for a lot of companies you also run the risk of having your game license revoked if they find you playing a game with one of those keys.

tl;dr caveat emptor

Pretty much. After I found out what G2A was doing I stopped going to their website let alone buying any of their shit.

My thoughts on the collection so far...

I'm playing through the first game, and I gotta say. Bioshock 1 on Unreal 4.... This was needed. They really improved it, while there are a few issues here and there because updating the project on a new version of an engine breaks scripts... its still a great improvement. Honestly the issues themselves aren't game breaking, but I'll have to admit, visually, the game looks so much better than it did on Unreal 2 or whatever version of Unreal the original build was on.

I especially like the new model of Andrew Ryan, the old one really looked like shit.

Like... visually, it really does look like its a new game for the next gen consoles. I also love the bonus content that comes with this for the first game, you even get to check out some of the cut content that didn't make it into the game, as well as an in depth director's commentary that you can find in game that wasn't originally there.
