thanks for the giveaway, but i'd recommend that you make a ticket to delete this giveaway (saying you accidentally made it for the wrong one) and instead make it for Bioshock: the collection. I might be wrong, but if bioshock: the collection is listed (in account details, not library) differently than just each item individually in an account, steamgifts might flag the winner as not actually redeeming the game they won. This isn't meant to be mean or ungrateful, just a suggestion
I appreciate the suggestion! But that would be VERY surprising to me, given my previous experience with this sort of thing (making a giveaway for App that's part of a Sub instead of the whole Sub).
I think it should be fine, because the collection activates 1, 2, those remastered, plus infinite, so ownership of Infinite will definitely show up properly in the account. It would be only a problem for some of those games that have a different id/package that somehow is exclusive of each other. I have The Collection activated on my account and it shows as "Exists in Account" here on this page.
Yeah, you are in the (hopefully small) group of people that won't be able to enter because I'm giving it away as Infinite instead of the Collection. Sorry about that! The first 2 games should be available pretty cheap, ITAD says the historical low is less then $3 for both games.
I'm fine with entries from people who own BioShock 1 and/or 2 but not BioShock: Infinite.
Putting aside $20 bundle tiers and the like, this is my understanding of the promotional history of the games:
Bioshock: Bundled once (T1) in 2014
Bioshock 2: Bundled once (BTA) in 2014
Bioshock: Infinite: Given away free, no limit, in 2015. Bundled once (BTA) in 2018
I've always had the impression the first two games were in higher demand, especially after their Remastered re-release. Though, I think the Bioshock Infinite: Season Pass and Bioshock 2's Minerva's Den DLCs are the real gems of The Collection, given their unbundled status. (Just a passing reminder that a GA creator can check DLC ownership by adding a winner on Steam, and then going to the store page of the DLC in question).
Interesting -- if the game was given away free in 2015, shouldn't it show two asterisks here on SG? The bundle date does show 2015, but it only shows one asterisk.
Oh wow, thank you very much!
I actually never finished any Bioshock game before (I only played Bioshock 1 through my brothers steam for some hours). So this will be a(n almost) entirely new adventure for me :).

I felt like I got to level 9 in no time, but then getting from 9 to 10 seemed like it took FOREVER.

that case apply when the game has 2 versions on steam
but this game https://steamdb.info/app/8870/ is part of a sub https://steamdb.info/sub/127633/apps/

Yeah, it's so much easier than giving away the actual Sub package because you don't have to deal with re-rolls.
Of course, it only works if you don't care about CV... but I don't care about CV, so there you go. :D

I have only BioShock Infinite so I can't enter to this giveaway.
