BioShock: The Collection
When a game is remastered, players tend to hold onto hope that the product created will exceed the original and rightfully so. But it seems as though BioShock: The Collection didn’t get the memo on that one. People have been eagerly awaiting remasters for the BioShock series for a long while now and when the collection was officially announced, the populace couldn’t have been happier. Unfortunately, the PC crowd’s enthusiasm quickly diminished when they realized the games ended up being more demasters than remasters.
It looks as though none of the original games’ bugs have been fixed and some of the worst ones can still completely break the game. Those looking for expanded graphical options were sorely disappointed as well as the remasters seem to have even less preference options than the originals, being limited to just things like resolution and anti-aliasing. Many players are noting that the sound for the game is also as bad, if not completely worse than the originals. On top of everything, frame rate problems rear their ugly heads and can even cause crashing in serious cases. As it stands now, 2K, the developer, hasn’t spoken out about the game’s issues. However, the BioShock series is so loved that if 2K doesn’t get on it, some superhero fan will undoubtedly swoop in and save the day with an incredible game-fixing mod.
