Forums - Sony - BIOSHOCK ps3 review by psm3 (93)? a slight anomaly! read on..............

Looks like there is no difference between the two versions thats worth mentioning.

That said PS3 owners really are being fleeced in the pricing.

I have noticed that the PS3 games tend to be about 5 GBP more expensive than the Xbox versions in the shops.

However I can pick up Bioshock in the UK brand new for around 30 USD at the moment and 20 USD second hand.

Its a crazy situation for PS3 owners.

IGN might have been mistaken about the extra crispness. Or PS3mag might be mistaken about the extra blur. They're all human, you know.

Not saying this is the case, but it's worth adding to the discussion.

Ahcheng: you'd even complain about the PS3 version if it was exactly alike, by going "an extra year in development AND the so-called power of the cell... this is a disappointing port".

You're one of the people for whom they should get a "ignore"button on this site.



I think we should wait until IGN releases their review, because one thing I've learnt from the GT comparison videos and raging fanboys online, is that when the difference is very little, which one looks better is actually very subjective.

So, it could be that IGN thought the earlier build had better graphics then the 360 version (and were wrong according to majority) and they say in the final review they are, OR perhaps PSM3 is judging bioshock too harshly, expecting a huge difference because they believe the PS3 is leaps and bounds above the 360, when in fact it does look better, but not by enough for these editors to get over their ego's.

I want an "extra blur" button in my games. Think how nice the graphics would be! N64 had something like that, if I recall correctly. @cal4m1ty That's exactly what I was saying. Only in a few more words.

well Bioshock is amazing,a 93 seems a tad low.



 

 

The game is a year old. It's a moot point. 360 owners already own it. PS3 owners should try it. The difference is non existent on my TV (based on the demo), and ign is lame.



Who gives a crap if it looks a little under par compared to the 360 version. Last I checked, Bioshock was the 360's highest rated exclusive to date (even higher than Gears which I don't believe). It will be available for PS3 this month.

 I don't have a 360 or a gaming PC so it's not at all cheaper for me to play the game on those platforms. Like most PS3-only owners this is just another new release for me, so there is nothing wrong with the £40 price.
