Bioshock - 360

Downloaded the demo this morning, sorry i have to say this is probably the most amazing game i've ever seen.. it's out on Friday... you just have to see the graphics in this game, it's almost movie like....

thats a shame mate !! but you need to see this game when you can !! I was well gutted when the demo finished, i was so engrossed that i forgot it was a demo... I think this is the best game on the 360 so far without a doubt...

Is it available to download from Xbox Live? If not, PC it is.

(By the way, I'll add you next time I'm on, Muffin Head, as I finally got my TV fixed).

Yes mate, i downloaded it this morning.. im now currently downloading John Woo's demo too.. i heard that was another amazing game...

Cool, add me when you get the chance !!

I have a GeForce 7800GS - best AGP card you can probably get before you look at upgrading to PCI-e (only £133 from ebuyer) - 2GB ram and a pretty old Athlon XP 3000 chip and i played the Bioshock demo pretty damn nicely

I have to say if this is what games using the Unreal 3 engine will look like...bring it on! I also cant wait to see the CryEngine2 in action. Im just happy my PC can handle it as i was thinking i might have had to wait till did a major PC upgrade (which i cant afford atm) to handle either Engine.

indeed...

Both games are essential purchases... Roll on Friday...!

Gosh, just downloaded the Motogp07 demo, this has to be the sexiest looking racing game, it looks better than Forza 2

Just finished playing bioshock demo on the pc, best game I've played in ages
Play posted it this morning, so fingers crossed for an early delivery!

[Rick Sanchez]

Meh, I'm going to download it for the PC anyway, just to see it'll run.

[Arfed]

Downloaded the PC demo but it keeps locking up my computer

I don't believe it is mate.. i've not seen it advertised or planned, maybe i'm wrong.

But to be honest, i've been very very dissapointed with some ports to the PS3, they have be so much inferior, take a look at F.E.A.R, this was my fave game on the 360 (until i played Bioshock which is now set to take over that mantle), the PS3 version of F.E.A.R is a total joke. Admittedly, some have been quite good like Oblivion and Ninja Gaiden, but on the whole some haven't quite lived up to it. Lazy port overs!?? I don't know..

The PS3 reminds me of the early days of the Amiga when all the Amiga got for the first year or so was ST ports, but even worse than they were on the ST.

The PS3 hasn't even started yet. The best graphics so far is Motorstorm, that's a glimps of what's to come...

Hope so! (Damn thing's still downloading at this very moment).

Its not officially annouced but there have been alot of hints that there will be a PS3 version. Could be a while though.

[Rick Sanchez]

PS3 seems like the old Xbox - big, expensive and with no f*cking games, other than ones already found on the rival console (in this case the 360).

Yer i'm looking forward to this one.

Although i'm looking forward to Medal of Honor Airbourne a hell of a lot more.

I understand what you're saying, but the PS3 hasn't been out a year yet, and the Wii wasn't really designed to compete rather just to provide something different so i don't consider the Wii as a threat... wait until Mario Kart GP turns up on the Wii, it's going to be fantastic.. and Mario Galaxy... there's so much to come from both the PS3 and Wii, where as the 360 is at it's peak and half way through it's life span..

Damm i thought someone had broken the release date.

im hoping they will break the code and release today, but i doubt it.. will take a gander into town at some point and see....

[Rick Sanchez]

Damn, my PC couldn't handle it on full resolution and full settings. Graphics card just couldn't hack it.

[Rick Sanchez]

Just played it on my 360 - awesome. Didn't think I'd like a game with 'special powers' in it, either, but this is just awesome.

I shall buy it, I shall.

Just come from gamestation, they had the special editions with the figures on the shelves..grr... Pre-ordered that for tomorrow, the packaging looks fantastic...

£49.99 is what the special edition costs, get a load of gubbins with it too...

[Rick Sanchez]

Bought it this morning. The only reason I stopped playing it was because I was starting to go blind through eye strain.

A question for those that have the game: Do you Harvest the Little Sisters of Rescue them? I'm a big softie - I Rescue them.

EDIT: No-one give any spoilers! I want to see how the game ends up if I rescue all of them.

I bought the ELITE as well, i've put the white 360 in my bedroom now... I couldn't resist, it looks sexy and goes well with the PS3.. need a black Wii now lol

[Karail]

My copy came through this morning and I dashed home on my lunch hour play it for a bit. Absolutaly loving it so far.

I rescue them as well. Will probably melt their little faces when I replay the game on hard however.

Yes i rescue them too..

I can't believe how incredible this game is...

One thing that angers me though, i just learn't that EDGE gave it 8/10... but really, am i to be surprised by that seeing they are usually a miserable lot there anyway...
