I was looking for an RTS to play and decided on this one, so far I've enjoyed it. There are some challenging levels but with some trial and error you can make it through.

I liked the first two movies and this one was a good addition to those (though I liked the first two more). The 3d in this one was great and worth watching just for that

I'm a sucker for 3d movies so I had to pick this one up. The 3d was top notch and some scenes were among the best I've seen, I've shown parts of this to people interested in the 3d and just about everyone is impressed. I only wish it was longer.
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 these game to play before trying Bioshock Infinite. Both games were great experiences (liked the first more though). Both had great graphics, story line and atmosphere. I would definitely recommend these to anyone interested. Plus this set includes the DLC for both games

I'm a big fan of Pixar and Disney so buying this was an easy decision. For an older movie, the 3d conversion was pretty impressive. The 2d version looks impressive as well. I'd recommend this to any 3d and/or disney/pixar fans
