Forums - Sony - Bioshock demo on EU PS Store, impressions

dbot on 02 October 2008

I am definately looking forward to the demo, but this game and motorstorm will probably not be considered until next year. I do like the look of Bioshock.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

No, the game was pretty good when it came out. The storytelling is great, albeit the story isn't amazing. A lot of cool things you can customize.

Some people thought it was super scary, and I can't really see that after playing a game like Condemned.

 

 I agree!  Great to see someone else tried Condemned aswell.

I played the demo last night. I don't think I am going to buy this game. I thought it was pretty boring. I didn't notice any frame issues, and the art direction is good. Judging from the demo, I would say this game was a little over-hyped.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

Not that this will change your impression of the game, but on the 360 version, you could hold the plasma/gun-change buttons to freeze the game and bring up a little wheel that you could use to select the one you want.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

For the OP it looked/played exactly like 360 so far as I can see. Given any FPS game handles better on a PC I'd caution against comparing the two - even at launch the 360 version wasn't as good as PC.

I thought it played okay but as ever control didn't feel as good as what you get with a K&M. Still, I hope it sells well enough as I'd pefer to see any sequel hit both consoles/PC at the same time as I've had enough with these 'timed' exclusives - they're just plain annoying and give no real value to consumers.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

The game was pretty good just like it is on the 360, from the first looks around the game there seems to be a lot of jaggies all over the place, i don't remember this in the 360 version. The basic textures look pretty much the same, but some of the textures look better then what i remember on the 360. There seems to be more smoke and and slightly different lighting.

But this is all going off memory and i will do a side by side with the 360 version on the weekend to see which one looks better.

I was planning for this to be my next PS3 game. The demo destroyed any chances of that. It just didn't look very good. I haven't actually played the other two versions though.

When I do get it, I hope you can change the controller layout because jump on triangle does NOT feel right.
