The game is buggy though. Just because you didn't have a problem doesn't mean there are no problems. You've heard of the ostrich syndrome right?

If you read the 2k forums and wade through the people bitching about the DRM and widescreen you'll see people actually are having problems. Some of them range from small little things like seeing the shadows through ceilings to things that happened on mine. Also, the fact they released a patch to fix bugs should tell you the game does have bugs.

well if you define seeing shadows through the wall buggy, lets add almost every game to the  buggy list because every game will have something buggy, it wont ever be perfect.

Some will some wont, doesnt mean in general the game is buggy at all, ill add every single game and find something wrong with it then ill post it

I dont have a problem with you posting that the patch is ruining stuff etc, but this thread has turned into

"i knew bioshock was buggy! Guess the game really isnt all that great"
in general its not that buggy, and it wont be brought down by the select few

The more you make excuses for the situation Kain, the more desperate you seem. just let it go, it's not worth the argument.

I must be, having played through the entire game and not found one bug, i must be pretty desperate, it has to be a buggy game.

Im curious have you played through the entire game?

Game is fantastic, all im saying is there will always be a select few consoles or games that will have problems, while it has a few (didnt see any, but i guess i have to listen and believe people).

Game is not perfect, but a few select bugs do not make it a buggy game.

It's not a matter of a game being perfect or not being a great game. It's a matter of developers being held to a higher standard, a professional standard, something severely lacking in Western developers. The fact that any patches had to be released is proof enough this game wasn't ready to come out. The degree to which the bug was a problem is inmaterial to the principle of the matter, professionalism, which is the real issue here.

I appreciate the fact you dissagree, but this has gone far beyond merely stating your opinion. People are entitled to be dissapointed and frustrated when things like this occur and don't need others belittling their concerns simply because they don't want to hear of it or have no problem with the issue.

The patch i believe was nothing much, they added title music (big whoop) fixed one AI, which is decentlly important.

 Higher standard they are, they cannot find every possible glitch, you name me one game that does not have a glitch.

I just dont want people to think that these bugs will make bioshock less of a good game, thats it, im not argueing the bugs.

I just want it to be a huge issue, ive really heard of no news of this.

Also every game will contain bugs and glitches, its something you cant change

At this point, and what twestern said about halo in the thread, i believe hes just here to report bad news.

Edit: misunderstanding on both our parts.. just ignore what i said....

Lair is a buggy game, BioShock is a game with bugs. Almost every game has bugs, I'm not defending developers for releasing games with bugs but BioShock is pretty damned smooth, especially on the 360.

FYI, the widescreen issue is not a "bug". It was a design decision and while it may have been a piss-poor decision, it was an intentional decision by Irrational and cannot be considered a bug.

Again, it's not the severity of the issue, its the fact there is an issue that in anyway needed fixed after the game's release. Just because you're fine with that doesn't mean people need to be content to this lazy lack of professionalism in development.
