This might be aimed more so to Xbox 360 and PS3 owners, that own both consoles. Which version do you tend to pick over the other. For example BioShock released on the Xbox 360 and PS3. Which version would you have bought if it was your first time actually playing BioShock.

Same can be said for games like Madden NFL or wrestling games.

xbox360.  while additional content would generally be a deciding factor (even the possibility to purchase content in the future), the 360 bioshock looked better, ran better, and was a considerable amount cheaper.

That is incorrect.  There was ONE texture on a Big Daddy that was low rez, but it was corrected in a patch.

no.  that was just extremely prominent because of how awful it looked.

Despite what you think, even 2K (the devs) said it looks better on the PS3.

It's not the first late port that has. (Obilvion and Eternal Sonata)

edit: because i just found one with a dev stating essentially the opposite.  but i will give you a bit more time to try and prove you arent lying...

*Ahem*

Look down a little.

if you are talking about dnos very poor attempt to defend you...one doesnt mention the graphics.  one admits the ps3 has problems and the other is ign... none are from devs. 

your refusal to produce the dev's alleged statement indicates your poor attempt at lying.

and here is the dev stating otherwise.  i will be reporting you for your previous post.

You just proved yourself potentially wrong.  The article you posted was dated October 8th, 2008.  Bioshock PS3 was not released until October 21st, 2008.  And there was a patch that was later released.  That's not to say that everyone's view on Bioshock overall looking better on the PS3 is correct.  But the date of the article you posted and given the bigger picture, website reviews that favored the PS3's version of Bioshock holds validity.

Mr. Bubbles & Barozi, please stop derailing the OP's thread by your lack of respect of a difference of opinion and preference by your fanboyish attitudes. Thank you.

 

pardon me? you need to re read the thread and apologize to me.  ive reported you for your insults and bigotry though anyways.

 

Outlawauron provided sufficent evidence to support his claim.  Just because he isn't toe-toe-lee Xbox doesn't invalidate his point.  I really can't see how you can call bigotry on me here since my Nintendo fanboyism doesn't apply in this thread.

This is what I was hinting at. Besides, it really doesn't matter.


PSU: In addition to our above question, has the utilization of the PS3 hard drive allowed for better graphics? And will load times be shortened due to the PS3 install?

Etgeton: Installing to the PS3 hard drive allows us to “stream” textures and audio faster than the Blu-Ray drive can deliver.

i take it you skimmed/didnt read at all rather than reading the article?  

the comments are about the demo, which in the 2k person stated "fairly represents the performance and user experience of the full BioShock PS3 game, and is an accurate representation of the final product."

that doesnt say its better than the 360 version at all.  it means installing is better than blu ray.

It's a comparison than if the game were to be running of a disk. Downloading to the hard drive enables this to happen. I'm sure it works the same with new NXE experience.

I only own a PS3 at the moment so the answer is obvious but i think if i had both then it would still be the PS3 as i much prefer the DS3 and also i wouldn't want to have to pay for the online aspect of the console just to play with my friends, which i can do just as easily on the PS3 for free!
