BioShock: The Collection Reviews
This is one of the finest gaming series to ever grace the industry, and you owe it to yourself to own this piece of gaming history. Now would you kindly go and buy Bioshock: The Collection at your earliest convenience.
One of the best video game collections of the current console generation.
As a whole, the collection is great for newcomers and fans alike. You’re getting three for the price of one. People, what’s not to like?
In Summary, Bioshock: The Collection is a welcome upgrade for fans of the series and gamers that want to explore the franchise for the first time. Sadly no multiplayer is included for this release but you won’t miss out on a great story.
Die BioShock Collection bietet eigentlich alles was sich Fans der Reihe wünschen würden, verschenkt aber viel Potenzial durch technische Probleme und ungewöhnliche Streaming-Einschränkungen. Für alle die der Serie noch nie eine Chance gegeben haben, oder einen bestimmte Teil/DLC nachholen wollen, bleibt die Collection aber trotzdem die beste Anlaufsstelle.

The mileage of the remastered games will vary depending on what previous players are looking for, but it’s hard to argue against the value for money in BioShock: The Collection in terms of sheer content, especially for those who have never experienced the critically acclaimed series before.
You can still have a ton of fun with the Switch port of Bioshock, as this is the best portable version of this classic masterpiece. Although, when compared to all of the other previously released versions of the game, this is only technically superior to the clunky iOS port from 2014.
The Switch port of Bioshock might have been a disappointment, but I’m glad they didn’t botch the port of Bioshock Infinite. This game still looks as gorgeous as it used to when it first came out seven years ago, and it’s still one hell of an emotional and entertaining ride from beginning to end.
If you’re at all interested in checking out the Bioshock series for the first time or looking for a new way to play it, the Switch port is easy to recommend.
For many BioShock: The Collection’s hop to Nintendo Switch is as good of an excuse as any to indulge in this unforgettable series all over again. For others it’s an opportunity to discover what they’ve been missing out on and if so “would you kindly” pick up a copy because yes, you’ve been missing out.
Bioshock: The Collection unites three great works from the entertainment industry, which influenced several other subsequent steampunk themed titles. There is no doubt, therefore, that this is an indispensable collection on the Switch for those who have never tried it before. There are some minor problems that could be fixed, yes, but nothing that undermines the excellent - and philosophical - gameplay.

BioShock: The Collection is an amazing collection of three extremely great titles that are just as good on Nintendo Switch. However, by no means is it a definitive way to play them.

For Nintendo owners, the release of Bioshock is something of a dream come true. It’s a game that never made it to the Wii or Wii U and was one of those third party games that seemed as if it would never make the jump across. Like all the 2K <3 Nintendo games, this has been lovingly put together and is the furthest thing from a throwaway port you can find.
'BioShock' is one of the few series that justifies a remaster. It was a watershed moment in gaming in 2007 and the gameplay still holds up after all this time. 'BioShock Infinite' is nearly as good and even the stepchild 'BioShock 2' is a blast to play. There's very little in the way of new content, but these titles are so enjoyable that I still enthusiastically recommend 'BioShock Collection' to old fans and newcomers alike.
Bioshock: The Collection takes three good to great games and does right by them by providing excellent visuals and all of the extra content for those who want to get even more out of the experience. It is surprising just how well the series holds up today - a testament to the original game design.
It wasn’t until I played so closely to the previous two games that I truly understood just how good and improved Bioshock Infinite was as a game
BioShock: The Collection is a pretty good compilation of some of the best first-person action—and sometimes horror—gaming around. It is unfortunate that it is not the greatest it could be, and that only the first game was given the best treatment, but these games have never looked or ran better on consoles before. Anyone who never played these titles should definitely give this a shot.
The first Bioshock is considered one of the most significant games in the last generation. The sequel is fun, but not as good as the first one, and “Infinite” is a great conclusion for the series. While it’s sad to see this remastered collection suffers technically in all of the platforms, it’s still your chance to play an unforgettable series!

Collectively, (if you pardon the pun) the BioShock Collection offers a TON of single-player content. Seriously, if you’re the gamer who prefers single-player to multiplayer then this collection has a massive amount of content on offer. Not only do you get the hugely praised single-player of all three base games, you will also get all the additional single-player content that all three games offer.
