"Relive the depths of Rapture and sail through Columbia in BioShock: The Collection! Remastered for current-gen, this edition includes all three #BioShock games, complete with all single-player DLC and a never-before-seen video series with commentary from Ken Levine. Available September 13, 2016 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC."

If you haven't jumped into BioShock yet this upcoming collection will be a great time to do so. Whereas the original game didn't sit as well with me as others, I thought BioShock Infinite and both DLC missions were incredible. If you enjoy heady sci-fi games with compelling stories, characters and gameplay or simply want to head back and experience Rapture again, the BioShock Collection drops September 13th on PC, XBone & PS4.

It's also worth noting that, like Skyrim, if you own these on PC already you'll get the remaster for free.

There's a Steam sale going on, what are you waiting for?

I'll also add, on a more personal note, that I count the original Bioshock as one of my favorite games. In retrospect I don't think Infinite was close to topping it, even though I also count Infinite as one of my favorites.

So since I already own BioShock, Infinite and all the DLC i'll get this for free? If so, sounds good to me! I'd like the extra behind the scenes content!

Yep! If you want the Minerva's Den DLC for Bioshock 2 you have to have the game and the DLC.

But there's actually no change for Infinite. It's not getting the remaster treatment, it's just being included with the others. It's already shiny enough apparently. So if you have Infinite on PC you already have everything they're shipping for that one.

If you look at the announcement page, the behind-the-scenes stuff is just for the original Bioshock.

To clarify, no change for Infinite on the PC, but it is being remastered for Xbox One and PS4. PC is just so powerful!

This is pretty exciting! All the Bioshocks, shiny and snug together. The director's commentary and Museum of Orphaned Concepts look most interesting. I haven't played through Bioshock since I completed it when it came out, and I never played through Bioshock 2, even though it's sitting, sadly, in my Steam library.

Yes, I meant specifically in Jon's case, but should have worded that better.

Bioshock 2 is also sitting in my Steam library, with like 2 hours of play time. It's not that it was bad, it just didn't grab me the way the first did. I still owe it a chance I suppose.
