PS3 version of BioShock 'looks no different'

They are.

Yeah, they have to be, since the 360 version doesn't run on the PS3 at all. I tried. Waste of a rental. :(

optimizing it, and making it look better then the original version are 2 totally different things

@bud_toker_13: What? Seriously dude, that is unreadable.

Exactly. +1 for common sense.
:)

lol your previous comment was totally hilarious.

You do that while the rest of us play one of the best shooters ever made.

Killzone???? , that's not coming till latter .
But seriously , I WON'T be getting BioShock , for some reason I'm just not interested in it , I saw a video of it and thought No .
TBH the only games that I'm looking forward too at all are LBP , FF13 (just because it's multi-plat doesn't mean we can't enjoy the superiour version on our PS3's ) , FF13Versus , and Killzone 2 , Fat Princess , and RC:Quest for Booty . And maybe I'll get Resistance 2 when it's a GREATEST HIT , but Killzone is looking alot better . (I tried the demo for R1 , it looked like a great game but the controls {mostly the sights } threw me off )

PS. I'm glad FF13 is getting ported , this way Square won't go broke , Xbots can try it , and for one the 360 will be getting the crappy port .

Exactly. +1 for common sense.

I'll probably buy the PS3 version even though I have the 360 version already, just for an excuse to play this excellent game again. As far as the graphics go, I hope it does look identical to the 360 version because it was a gorgeous game.

They do? I suppose we can always wait for the obligatory (and asinine) comparison video that will come on gametrailers but if the developer says it's the same, I'm going to pretty much take their word for it.

because screenshots always look better than what your TV can output.

if anything they could've matched how the PC version looks, which is visually superior to the 360 version.

*O i c. I think i got my hopes up, just Madden n Woods.

It's an old game.

My cousin has this on his 360. He was about half-way through the game so I started a new game and we'd take turns playing. So I saw the first-half through my file and the second half through his.

What I experienced was a casual first person shooter that had a whole lot more to look at than actually do. The shooting is so...Doom, that I eventually got tired of trying and just started running past enemies.

I'm saying this isn't Oblivion or Metal Gear Solid 4, amazingly in-depth games with much replay value. So if you've beaten this game already, there isn't much incentive to buy it. I just don't think it has the depth to keep me coming back for more.

But if you love it, then you love it. I love Uncharted and it's pretty straight forward, yet I find myself replaying it from time-to-time.

Hey Amos, I was really intrigued by Lost Planet when it was on the 360 and when it came to the PS3 I dutifully downloaded the demo to find that I really didn't like the gameplay.

Is the full game any better?

I'm still intrigued by the story and maybe I didn't give it its due chance. Might still pick it up if a good deal appears in the future.

Just interested as it sounds like you're a fan of the game ... and I thought I would be too.

he said lost odyssey, not lost planet.

Um, I said Lost ODYSSEY, not Lost Planet. Completely different games. It's a Japanese RPG, which are my favorite games. Bioshock has a RPG feel to it and that was my point.

Brodie-san, he said Lost Odyssey, not Lost Planet. They're very different. :)

Nevermind! Stupid comment system here doesn't seem to show comments right away, and now 800 people already said what I said. :(

I completely misread that .. sorry
:)

It's been reported that the DLC is basically a lot of "sub-games" or tasks and are not canonical to the story. So, there's extra things to do but they are not integral to the plot.

And, once again, a game can be released as "Home compatible" without Home available. Developers have known for some time now what they need to incorporate from a functional perspective in their games for it to work with Home. It's quite possible that Bioshock can be released without Home on the market and then when Home does appear, voila, you can access the Bioshock Game Space, launch from Home etc.

One is not dependent on the other.

Home already exists. It just hasn't been released to the public. Warhawk has reportedly had Home support for months.

"sound plays a big role in how something looks"

Huh?

Dan watch an explosion on mute. Better yet taste a strawberry while plugging your nose and notice how it tastes different when you can't smell it.

I've heard that from my 360 friends as well. That said, I almost applaud short games these days. There's too many good games to play. I don't have time to play games once, nevermind a replay.
:)

That's a real disappointment. Why no effort to make this game worth buying for the crowd that's already played it? -_-

Surely they must know that the cost of buying a second console just to play this game didn't stop most working professionals...

same widescreen technique that almost all PS2 games used(hell the only game on PS2 i know of that had proper widescreen was FFXII though that's off topic lol),. i doubt the PS3 version would be any different ,. that's kinda like adding it extra stuff, cuz the extra image on the left & right would have to be added in to make in widescreen without having to cut the top and bottom. so without extra work, it's either cut the top & bottom, or resize the current image,. I don't recall the image being cut off like shown in that pic though when I played the demo of bioshock last fall when I had rent a 360 for Halo3,.

@Tim: Actually, the work is already done for the PC version. If you check the link in the original comment, there is mention that this was fixed in patch 1.1. Hopefully they are putting this into the PS3 version, as it wouldn't make sense not to.

Nice info! I don't have TV service (no time for it, too many games), so this is handy info to know.

Wow, all three minutes of it? o_o
