I actually enjoyed BS:3 far more as my expectations, and price point,
where much lower. I wouldn't say it was a great game but more than worth
the £5 I paid for it.

 Bioshock 3 was a generally better experience, even if it did suffer a
lot from corridor-shooter linearity. (I know it's supposed to be an
open-world sandbox, but it's really not). There was less emphasis on
environmental traps, the worlds were more open and the combat more
frenetic. It largely suffered in world design and aesthetics. The
first "Bioshock" is a better game when it comes to its story and
visuals; "Bioshock Ultimate" is just more fun to actually play.
 But overall I still think they're both of them fairly average
shooters, not worth a lot of the hype and praise heaped upon them.
 

I enjoyed 3 but it certainly doesn't get anywhere near my PC Classics list. It's just a fun romp with a bit of story tacked onto mindless violence, what's not to like?
