Is there anything else that was added besides remastered 1080p visuals? I played Bioshock 1 back in the day, others I planned to but if it's just the new 1080p visuals then it's not worth it for me. I'd just play the old ones then. Edited September 4, 2016 by Infernoplex typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let see, for the collection, you will get 3 games with 60$, all 3 games will include full DLCs. It also includes developers's behind the scene and stuff but I think most people will ignore that.

Infernoplex Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 @Arsudar - I see, it's cheaper that way then, if I would to buy it now it would be 70 euros for this triple pack but I'm not into Bioshock right now, I will wait and see first how the new remastered one performs, whether there are optimization issues and so forth ... Right now I don't really have a gaming PC so I really have no use of remastered 1080p visuals and I guess they could really strain my PC over here xD I remember playing Bioshock 1 on high settings on my old PC which was weaker then this new one but I never go into high resolutions and more then medium settings on this one Anyway, thanks for the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narcosis Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 >remaster for a 2007 game @Arsudar Consider changing the font color of your OP, it's completely unreadable. That, or simply stop the monkey business and write like everyone else; different font does not make you a special snowflake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funyarinpa Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Well, I ain't too impressed by the remaster- but hey, it's free for the owners of Bioshock 1 and 2 on Steam so I ain't complaining. Hope they'd fixed the BS1 gunplay, though. Sigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Blue Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 the remastered version adds a lot of new textures and improves a lot of the old ones too but yeah the changes are mostly aesthetic, still I think it's worth it, the games looked great vanilla (specially BS1)now they look even better. If you already own the games you don't have to buy anything (remember what dark souls 2 did, huh?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the others though cuz they can them with pretty cheap price. Not sure what you mean with Dark Souls II though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there are companies that do some shady stuff, at least 2K and Irrational Games are not doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not mention the graphic aspect, the only thing they add in the game is the 3 DLCs in which probably people already bought it long time ago. This edition is most likely for people who haven't get Dark Souls II yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but not much anyway. I mean it could surprise ppl who've already played the game beforehand so to me that's not really impressive. Or it just because I played as cheesy spellcaster :D.

Guest Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 How to play Bioshock remastered for free: 1. Open up regular Bioshock 2. Turn all settings to ultra 3. Profit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 It does seem like a profitable sale for newcomers, but personally, the Bioshock series just never had much replay value for me. Sure, there are two endings in the first game, but you could just watch the other one on YouTube. Infinite is a linear experience with a single ending, so again, no replay value for me. I don't really see much point in buying another copy of the game unless they add extra content. preferably a new route with a new heroine like a visual novel.

Arsudar Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 WARNING FOR PC GAMER: I've seen the reviews and overall the collection is good enough, not excellent but yes exceptable. However, PC version is "wonderful" port with "bug-fest" and "crash-fest". I plan to play on Steam, so seems it is best to wait until the patches fix all that annoying "fest".

Yup, I could have predicted that Though I intend to play the non-remastered version anyway, because I think it's less problematic in all ways possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But look on the bright side I guess I can get Bioshock 1 and 2 with cheap prices and mod them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it isn't your fault the remaster didn't live up to its expectation, don't blame yourself for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
