woot, im gonna purchase it for the PC tho, but still nice =)
i just wonder whether the pc graphics will be up to par with/better than the 360 version

Why wouldn't it? I'm sure it will.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Wii that seals the deal Im buying Bioshock on day 1. HERE I COME BIG DADDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I knew this would be a great title. In the top 3 games of the year for me. I will probably get it first week, but I still feel like this will be a disappointment in terms of sales.



Consoles I Own: NES, SNES, N64, GC, GBA, DS, X360, Wii

Good for PS3/360 owners. FPS's suck though, IMO.

It's not a typical FPS though, it's more comparable to Metroid Prime in that it has a lot of adventure elements to it.

Does anybody know if there is a demo of it coming (or already out) for PC?

Some of the gameplay videos haven't looked that interesting for me. The game looks good, but I haven't really been pulled into the game yet enough to really be excited for it.

Watch this video, you'll thank me later :) (watch all of it, it's worth it)

If you like single player shooters, this is like the second coming.

Personally, I am more interested in the single player of a shooter 90% of the time and this is no exception. I am happy they didn't add on a crappy multiplayer mode like the Darkness guys did just so they can say they have multiplayer...


 Yea, I've already seen that one. The water looks good and the rest of the game looked okay, but it didn't interest me as crazy awesome. I'm looking for a gameplay demo to really pass some judgement on it.

The game really looks amazing, both technically and from an art direction stand point. As for the gameplay, also amazing, though I imagine a lot of people won't end up finishing it, as they'll be wandering around and backtracking and pulling their hair out because they just never spot that certain item/room/switch.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

-_______-  the player who play the game demo is as slow as hell 7.5/10 & btw i didn't see any map or radar...

By the way Bioshock box doesn't have Only on Xbox on it  hint... hint...

Edit: Before you say it's because it's coming on PC too, check the boxes of Gears and Lost Planet.

 


 Isn't that because Gears and Lost planet came out for the 360 first, and only later saw announcements that they'd go pc? It's my understanding that Bioshock is hitting both platforms at the same time.

Why not wait until the game is actually released and you've played it before rating it?

...and the BD demo also wasn't as good as I expected...


Sorry for being off topic, but yeah, I wasn't impressed with the demo for Blue Dragon. The gameplay was pretty interesting, but the characters style didn't do much for me (I much preferred the look of DQVIII) and the fact the demo only gave you 60 minutes per dungeon bothered me. I kept feeling rushed and not able to sit down with the controls and different options to use so I ended up only playing it for about 15 minutes before I decided I hated timed demos.

If I here from people that the game is actually good I might pick it up, but the timed demo and there just seemed so much to do in the battle menu's I just couldn't get a clear reading on how the game would be.

-edit-
and as for Bioshock, it looked interesting.  If I don't have anything else to play I might pick it up down the line.  I haven't payed a lot of attention to it (a FPS type of game has to be pretty cool before I give it much thought) so don't know a lot about it other than what I've seen from a few random videos.
