When this came on sale for 50 bucks i couldnt help myself being an avid fan of bioshock. Im sure you all know how the game goes by now so i will get into the special edition stuff. First is the box, its well constructed nice and solid and a great paintjob of a butterfly made from little little sisters hands. Second is the record of the soundtrack, i havent listened to it due to not owning a record player but its a great touch to add to the steampunk/art deco of the game. Next up is the posters they are great too as i am sure i have seen them in the game somewhere and also have hidden messages revealed under a blue light (google it!) The book called deco devolution is very comprhensive with art and concepts and is hard back too which is great and lastly there is the cd of the soundtrack which is really haunting and looks like an old record too! so all in all if you see this on sale again i really recommend getting it as you will not regret it at all!!

One of the best games I have ever played, well designed, fantastic levels, amazing Graphics. Very realistic and totally immerses you in the gameplay. And to top it off a great box set with some of the fantastic visuals in the collectors Book and music through LP or CD etc. Highly recommend this collectible set.

This is a beautiful collector's e­dition, with such a high standard of quality. Aside from the soundtracks and the posters (which are all excellent), the art book that comes in this edition is a great reason to make this purchase.

You might think from looking at the cover, that it's the same book you get in the Rapture edition of Bioshock 2, but that's not quite the case. While the cover, name and much of the content is the same, the collector's edition art book contains extra chapters and information, especially concerning level design and specific locations in the game. For someone who loves the world of Rapture, this additional insight into the making of the game is really fascinating stuff. The collector's edition book is also much larger in dimension, which really benefits the amazing pictures and concept art.

And on top of all that, you get the game as well. If you're a fan of the Bioshock series, don't hesitate. This collector's box is an amazingly good value for all the content included.
