Bought the Bioschock Triple Pack in the last Summer Sale and realizing that almost a year has passed encouraged me to give the games the hours of play they deserve. Still finishing B2, I guess I'm almost there and then will continue with Infinite. The goal is to finish it before this year Summer Sale. I would like to share some words about the first one and the sequel, will try to avoid spoilers and/or write too much.

Bioshock:

I'm not really into FPS but I have put a lot of hours in classics like Wolfestein, Doom, Duke Nuken 3D and Blood as a kid. Bioshock caught my eye back in the day because of its atmosphere and the sci-fi setting. Guess I was too busy with my studies or other games at the moment and just skipped it. What a mistake! But I have already amended that and finally got trough the Rapture experience. Loved the game, specially the characters that struggle in the city, the story told with the audio logs, the look and feel of Rapture (the architecture, furniture, the ads). Sadly, and I think this has "ruined" somehow my experience, I had to take several breaks during my gameplay because of how tense and nervous the game put me at some points. These breaks were sometimes not hours but days or even weeks without touching the game. I remember specially the part in wich you are crossing a tunnel and the lights go out or the many Splicers around the city wich seemed dead but they weren't... hell the weren't (fell too many times with those xD). The final battle kind of dissapointed me but overall I really liked the game and it has grown a lot in me since then. By the way, I got the "good" ending.

Bioshock 2:

I'm almost done wit it ( I think). So far I'm liking it a lot. The gameplay is improved (hacking and combat) as you all will already know and I think this gives the game a quicker pace. Some parts like Ryan's Atracctions would have been great if they were in the original game. I like more the weapons in this one, they all look trully devastating. There are (a few) new type of enemies, wich is good. I'm enjoying also the story around Eleanor/Lamb/Delta and the ideological fight between Lamb/Ryan in the past and how some audio logs give more information on characters we saw in the previous game. It might feel like a "long DLC" of the first one, but its fantastic experience if you liked the original and stayed wanting more. Talking about DLCs I'm thinking about getting Minerva's Den, can you recommend it?
UPDATE: The last hours of the game were such a fantastic experience imo. Looking at Rapture with "other" eyes, and the ending. I have to say that for me the story is underrated. Internally I'm debating whether I liked more this game or the first one, maybe it is because I played both in a row and in my mind I can't establish clearly the limits. Anyway, I guess that the important thing is that I enjoyed both of them. Will have to get Minerva's Den as soon as possible.

Infinite:

Hope to start it soon. Not in Rapture anymore but I think I will like it, what do you think?
UPDATE: Already installing so starting it this weekend and thanks to all of you my hype is over 9000 >O< Thanks!

Cant wait to give it a try, I hope not to miss Rapture. I'm surprised about how many votes Infinite had received considering the great prestige the original has.

Bioshock for me. It was sooooo great, Bioshock 2 was a disappointment for me and it felt like more as a large dlc than its own game.

Bioshock infinite: great graphic, story a bit meh until the end (I don't like when a game puts all the plot in the last 1 hour of the game) and the gameplay was a bit disappointing vigors are pretty much all the same. I still liked it though but for me it's the "worst" in the series. It doesn't me it's actually bad, it's my opinion :p
