    I agree that Rapture is definitely "better" than Columbia (for lack of a better word), but there were/are aspects of Infinite's story/adventure that I really appreciated.

    The first Bioshock game just rocked my world so hard. So awesome. That is the one I am looking forward to playing through again the most.
    Totally agree.

      I haven't finished 2, but I love the first one and Infinite equally. I'm also a person who loves Mass Effect 3 and think the ending is pretty good.

      Actually, I played all of these games years after they came out, so that probably helped.

        I also don't think 2 deserves the hate that it gets. I beat it and the DLC and loved it as well

          That moment ranks in my mind as one of my favorites ever as a gamer. Most Bioshock fans seem to have gotten this already with Rapture in the intro to 1 so it probably didn't hit them as hard, but it blew me away. It was also the first game I played on PC after building my rig so it was at the time the best thing I'd ever seen graphically.
          Same here. Games like this would typically be out of my range but I gave this one a shot on a whim. I knew virtually nothing about the series beforehand so everything pretty much blew me away, right from the start.

          Infinite was quite possibly the most immersive gaming experience I've ever had. Something about it just locked me in right from the start and I was riveted by every single twist and turn. It's one of those situations where it's actually kind of upsetting that you can't re-play the storyline and experience the same feelings as the first time through.

            I really enjoyed it as well, I like your rundown of it here.

              I will definitely be picking this up. Infinite was definitely one of my favorite plots of all time. Looking forward to this!

                  I snagged it at lunch and installed it (I also wanted to see the PS4 update). The disc version comes with two discs - first two games on one disc and Infinite on another. Looking forward to getting started tonight.

                    I'll be picking it up because... it's free! Should show up in my Steam library on the 15th.

                      I picked up this and NASCAR Heat Evolution on my lunch break. One I know will be great, the other... we'll see.

                        Played about two hours into the first game. So far it's great. It looks good and runs smooth as butter, which is all I could have asked for.

                          I honestly had no idea this was two discs. Both my PS4 and XB1 copies arrived from Best Buy on Monday, which was pretty sweet. I open the PS4 case and pop the disc in only to see that I only have access to Infinite. I figured maybe the complete install had to finish but the checked some forums anyway. I found a post about the unboxing and saw someone mention it was tow discs. I check BEHIND the manual on the left side and sure enough, the disc for the first two games. Ha.

                          Bioshock 1 is still an excellent game but what's up with the audio issues? Countless times it sounds like things, like enemies or cameras, are way closer to you than they actually are. I've noticed constantly that you'll be in a room and it sounds like a splicer is right next to you, rambling like they do, or at least right outside the door, but they are usually way down a hall or even on a floor above you. It's pretty annoying since I'm playing on Hard and trying to take my time and keep thinking an enemy is right around the corner when they're not. It just seems to be a mixing issue or something. I don't remember having any issues on 360 or PS3.

                              Two discs on consoles? Is this the first game to do that this generation?

                                Reading the PC port of the remaster has many of the same glitches as the original. Unbelievable.

                                When I tried to play the original on Windows 8, there was no sound. If I start this game up and theres no sound or constant glitches man....well at least it was free I guess.

                                I must be destined to only ever play Infinite.
