Pretty good. I thought the story was complex for an fps. I have the pc version. I can't say how good the 360 version was.

I would say the pc version is better, because of the control scheme (mouse and keyboard rules!)

but still, they are both the same game.

ok.. I thought he has probably got a point.. but then he starts talking about stuff like the atmoshpere is the best ever created and then I ask.. are you sure?

yes, this is the only game where you actually want to find every little area, it is just interesting I think. I got a hold of me and I spend probably upwards of 30 hours in the game. My first, and only, playthrough.

 The PC version also looked better, if you had the hardware to drive it. The PS3 version should either look like the PC version, or better then that (as the dev's said they are improving the graphics).

I would not wait for the PS3 version however. If you have a strong PC or a 360 and have not played this game... go play it :p

The PC version of Bioshock was great and the 360 version is as good as the PC version.

I heard it was short and the endings were very underwhelming.

Tbh..it wasnt really the type of game that would interest me usually. But i tried the demo and decided to buy the game. It is now one of my favourite games. Probably the atmosphere is what i most enjoyed about it. And (i think) the only game where i did go and get every achievement. It was far more enjoyable on Hard without the vita chambers imo.

sorry dude. this game is overrated as much as mario galaxy. as i told you before the game is really good till fort frolic. The game just goes to shit after you kill andrew ryan. The game is so linear it made me throw up, i just didn't get the hype. It felt to me like metroid prime @ times, which ain't a bad thing, but it sucks when you realize its the spiritual successor of System Shock 2.

i hate the shoting.

Bioshock wasn't as impressive as System Shock 2.

Best atmosphere? That's highly arguable. On the FPS genre itself there are games I think have better atmosphere, such as System Shock 2, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

The art style of Bioshock though is sublime.
