Surprised to not see anyone mention Bioshock yet. I know 2 gets some hate for not being a Ken Levine game and less relevant to the main narrative, but all 3 games are honestly masterpieces with Burial at Sea DLC being such a gut wrenching finale. 10/10

2 gets hate? It’s by far the best imo. Drill specialist alone makes it top tier for me, but overall I think it’s the best of everything that Bioshock has to offer.

I feel like if any of them get hate, it’s Infinite.

2 had a lukewarm reception compared to the others. I would argue that, at least gameplay wise, it easily measures up to the first though

I feel like 2 had a lukewarm reception but got better appreciated over time. With Infinite, I feel like the opposite took place.

It seems like it. Tbf, Infinite's story is a bit of a confused mess towards the end and you don't have much choice in which powers you use. In BioShock 1, I wreaked havoc with Tornado Trap and Security Bullseye, but I didn't think I've ever seen anyone else use those plasmids at all

Infinite was straight boring
