Originally released in 2007 and winner of multiple Game of the Year awards, BioShock is a "genetically enhanced" first-person shooter set in Rapture, a decaying art deco underwater utopia torn apart by civil war. Caught between powerful forces and hunted down by genetically modified "splicers" and deadly security systems, players have to come to grips with a deadly, mysterious world filled with powerful technology, fascinating characters and morality defining choices. To make it to the end, players can turn everything they encounter into a weapon, biologically modify their body with Plasmids, hack devices and security systems, upgrade weapons, craft new ammo variants, and experiment with different battle techniques. No encounter ever plays out the same and no two gamers will play BioShock the same way.Originally released in 2010, BioShock 2 features an unsettling storyline, dazzling visual design and the evolution of the genetically enhanced shooter gameplay. Set almost a decade after a grueling civil war consumed the once magnificent city of Rapture, evil reverberates through the halls and a wickedness once thought gone forever returns along the Atlantic seaboard. An unspeakable series of kidnappings from local seaside communities by an unseen monster leads to the repopulation of Little Sisters in Rapture's failed utopia under the ocean. Players must step into the boots of one of gaming's most iconic characters, the Big Daddy, as they traverse the fallen city, fending off attacks from an army of genetically modified Splicers, while searching for escape and the key to their survival.
I bought this as a preview to the newest game and to introduce myself to the storyline. I saw this at best buy for 29.99 and figured 2 games both with extra content....I'll give it a shot. I'm so glad I did. I love this game. Just beat the first with most of the achievements and just starting on the second. One thing...Start the first on the hardest difficulty, just too easy on the other settings. Other than that a great value, great gameplay, and a great way to get started before playing Bioshock Infinate.

Bought this to get a feel for the elder scrolls saga. It's a good intro as to the story line and gameplay but be warned and aware the graphics and game are definately dated. After all look at how long ago it was made. but still a good game, and with the extra content makes it a good buy. I'm more of a FPS, RPG, +Racing type of gamer. I bought this to see if I would like it, and truelly need to give it abit more time before I''m even sure.lol

I bought this mainly for xbox 360 games but i only take up alittle over half of the slots with those so are using the rest for dvds n blurays. It's a great way to organize your collection n get extra shelf space. Holds 52 and looks good as well, with a great price. The only downside (that I can find) is that it only has one slot for double sized cases such as collections n games that have more than 3 discs to a case. It's not a real setback though.(esp for me). If I get more games or movies such as that, I'm just going to use a dremel tool to cut a bar out and make a single slot into a double.(a 2 minute fix if that). I'll prob spray a bit of black paint over the cuts, even though it's not needed.(that's just how I am) Over all I'm very happy with the product,price, and the service at best buy. I would recommend it to anyone. I'll prob. buy another myself, as my collection grows.
What's great about it: price, looks good, holds 52, no set up, just slide in games-dvds-blurays n done
What's not so great: Only one slot for double/collection sized cases
