BioShock: The Collection (Nintendo Switch)

After opening the case I discovered that this is the German version NOT the English version. I haven't loaded it up to see if there's a way to run it in English yet, but ALL documentation and case information is German.UPDATE: After installing the MicroSD card and the game chip everything came up in English. No problems at all. Increased rating from 2 stars to 5.

Crashes on occasion but it's a really fun serries.

Questing :Are all 3 games on this card? Answer : Yes..... So I went ahead and bought it. I inserted the card in my switch and start playing. All OK so far, all games are there. But then surprise. After first chapter I'm required to download the rest of the game to continue playing. For all 3 games. And the problem is that I don't have Internet access where I am right now so I can't update. I bought the physical version so I can play it now, not when I get home in 5 months.

Plays surprisingly well on the Switch Lite! I’m well into Bioshock 2 and I’m enjoying it as much as I did on the PS4!

Nelle foto e nelle descrizioni é specificato che si tratta della versione con scheda di gioco. Mentre a casa ti arriva l'edizione con codice digitale. Il suo reale valore di mercato é 10€ non 35€. Per aggiunta nessun codice trovato all'interno. Letteralmente una scatola vuota. Istareso.

The original Bioshock is one of my favourite games of all time and I have played all the games in the series before on the PS3 and then remastered on the PS4.Therefore I must say common sense regarding spending more money abandoned me somewhat when I decided I just couldn't resist buying the collection again for the Switch!However, I must say that I absolutely do not regret this rather questionable decision at all and I'm 100% happy with this frankly perfect port of all 3 games. They are all simply superb on the Switch, they look pretty much exactly like the PS4 version to me and the sublime award winning soundtrack is still one of the best ever heard in the gaming world. More importantly, the games play fantastic on the Switch both Handheld with Joy Cons or docked with the awesome Pro Controller, they are honestly a total pleasure to play through again maybe even more so than ever particularly on a portable device and the original Bioshock is 12 years old now which is a testament to how great that game was and indeed still is!It is fair to say that BioShock 2 is perhaps the weakest link in the series but it's still very good while the final installment BioShock Infinite is another brilliant game and all single player DLC is included with every game, there is plenty of replayability with the harder difficulty levels as well.The story that runs through all the games is both imaginative and excellent and there are some great ideas brought in here that many future games followed bringing together both FPS and RPG elements in tremendous fashion.To summarise, BioShock The Collection is a flawless port of one of the best series of games of all time to the beloved Nintendo Switch. There are some people saying not to buy the cartridge version due to the fact that you still need a 30GB download but while this is a fair point I have no problems with downloading and I still like to have the physical cartridge and case etc plus it's £7 cheaper on Amazon than the Nintendo store version anyway, just be aware that clearly you will need a micro SD card for the downloads!A real portable trip down memory lane and easily 5 stars every day of the week for me, if you own a Nintendo Switch.... Buy this!

The games themselves are good and what you’d expect.But they just crash constantly! You’ll be a couple hours playing then boom it crashes, you wanna hope you’ve saved.On top of that the auto save function is trash for both 1&2 I’ve not started infinite yet.It’s so bad I abandoned Bioshock one due to the amount of time I had to replay what I’d already done.Shocking.

It's no exaggeration to say that I have been longing for this AAA Trilogy to come to the Nintendo Switch since I bought the console on launch day in 2017......and here it is in all it's amazing glory.....Remastered with all the DLC's!I owned these 3 games back in the day on my Xbox 360 & infact, BioShock was the sole reason I originally purchased the 360. If you have played these games before on other platforms then they need no introduction. If you have not played these games and are going to buy them, then I am jealous of the journey you are about to go on. The amount of effort, skill & love 2K poured into these masterpieces is a joy to behold. The storytelling, the gorgeous art deco graphic styling, the atmospheric crackly audio logs, the beautiful soundtrack to the insane & unnerving chattering from Splicers you can hear nearby before they jump you from a dark corner are some of gamings most memorable moments. Small details & touches matter to me when playing a game & so I encourage you not to speed-run this trilogy and instead take your time between battles & fights to look around Rapture & Columbia & explore every nook & cranny for hidden items & soak up the stunning atmosphere these games create.BioShock is a FPS with some RPG, cutomisation & stealth elements with a bit of horror thrown in for good measure. The player takes on the role of Jack and you are guided by various characters that have sight of you via audio through the worlds of Rapture & Columbia by objectives. There are moments where you will have to make stark choices which impact the story. The game concept incorporates ideas by 20th Century dystopian & utopian thinkers such as George Orwell & Ayn Rand aswell as historical figures such as John D Rockefeller & Walt Disney. I won't spoil the stories in these games other than say that they were some of the first I had ever played that offered the player a moral dilemma.All 3 games & DLC play beautifully on the Nintendo Switch in both docked & handheld mode. These Remastered games look even better than the original versions I played on my 360......and there was nothing wrong with the originals.If you're looking for FPS games with a bit more to them, then I encourage you to get this trilogy. It will not disappoint.

I've played through Bioshock 1 and Bioshock Infinite before and wanted to check them out on Switch. The games themselves are awesome, and absolutely deserved all of the praise they recieved back when they first came out. However, the Switch version is weird because there's both a physical cartridge version AND a "code-in-a-box" version. From other reviews it seems like people have gotten mixed copies from buying it here on Amazon. I know myself I bought it from this listing because the picture of the box is the one with the physical cartridge, however, the one I actually recieved was the "code-in-a-box". I can't really complain too much because I still did get the games either way, but it is a little annoying for my collection, and so if you're looking for a physical copy you may want to keep in mind that you might not get one with ordering online (from here or elsewhere).
