I really dont give a f*ck if all you guys got a really good computer, of if the game has 0,0005% sharper textures on the PC version.

I like to sit down in my sofa, and play totally relaxed with a easy-to-understand controller in my hands and a big screen in front of me.

I dont like to stress about having a good enough computer or anything else.
I just want to play the darn game, and for that, the 360 is perfect.

now all i need is yellowdog, cheers to ps3

It's pretty obvious that they would make the PC version first and port it. That's a major selling point of the 360 to PC developers.

I think regardless of the platform, this game is incredible and we should have a good play-through.

I'm only gonna go through the PC version because I don't really have any avid 360-gaming friends. My friend has a PC that can run it on full though, so, it should be amazing!

I remember a similar comparison with the Lost Planet title; the PC visuals were slightly better. Good grief, could it possibly be that Gears on PC betters the 360 version in terms of graphics?

Regardless, I wish I was able to play this game :)

I'd get the PC version, but my PC would never be able to handle Bioshock. Plus I already have the 360 version pre-ordered.

Of course there was no doubt. The PC needed to run the thing has more power than 360 and PS3 combined. There's never any contest between a console and a PC.

I agree though, that i think saying it plays better with a keyboard was totally stupid. There's just no argument when it comes to the fact that a controller is better for FPS and pretty much every game but RTS to be honest.

I think Bioshock looks more than fine on my 360. This kind of talks as if it looks like crap on 360, when the fact is, PCs are more powerful so of course it's going to look better.

Either way i don't care, that's just my opinion.

PC always will win against the 360 in the graphics department. Meanwhile, on the 360.

the best PC will make bioshock look very good

the VAST majority of PCs cannot run this game...even if they can...a lot of them will not look as good on the 360

regardless...games always play better on the consoles

oh yeah...sony boys...pleaw buy it for PC..just throw your money at MS~! :D

i already got a 4000$ pc and i dont feel like buying this game so ill just steal it at walmart :D!

The 360 and PC are in the same family....Microsoft family that is. It's all about prefrence. If you like mouse and keyboard style get a pc if u like gamepad style get a 360. By this time next year Vista will have penetrated the market pretty well. Cross platform play between 360 and pc will be in full force and msoft will have done what they set out to do from the beginning...bridge the gap between pc and console.

What the hell is all this PC vs. X360? Regardless it'll be better on the PC hands down. So the PC costs 4-10 times more then a 360... there's good reason, it's not "JUST" for games. If you spent all that money on a PC just for games then, well you're retarted. My PC is a tool. I play games yes, but it also is used for more things then the 360 will and can ever even dream of doing, hence the price of a PC compared to a 360. So you like the 360 controller? Heck, wire it up to your PC. Want to play in the living room on your couch... hell hook it up to your HD TV and play it at full 1920x1080 resolution. Seriously, the PC does have the 360 beat in every frigg'n department and there really is no argument.

However, I still very much enjoy my 360 and there's nothing wrong with playing games on it even if it is not as good as my PC. I mean come on, it's only what $400, my 8800GTX SLI setup cost twice as much, how the hell can you even compare it to a PC. For the price, it's a damn good machine.

but I'm not going to shell out a buttload of money on graphics cards and RAM and all that mumbo junmbo every 4-6 months in order to play games at the highest quality.

Cause my 360s been replaced 3x for scratching discs and if any mods come out they wont be on 360 anyway.

I've just upgraded my pc and it didnt cost no where near $4000 and i'll be able to run bioshock at max settings.

I spent maybe £800 on my pc and that includes a new LCD widescreen monitor. Just shop around its relatively cheap now to upgrade a pc to play the latest games. I don't just play games on it either. Its a real entertainment system.

FPS are designed for the pc and they work best on the pc platform. I've played fps games on consoles and its clunky at best. You need to double take on most targets with the gamepad but with mouse u can aim directly at the target on first go. There is no autoaim either as with the gamepad.

I can't wait to play bioshock on my pc. The game wasn't designed on x360 first either. There was 2 development studios 2k boston worked on x360 version and 2k australia developed the pc version.
Don't believe everything u read by other demented console fanboys.

obviously if you have the system to handle it, PC will always be better than anything a console could produce

duh.

Let's See:

PC
- Better graphics
- Enhanced weapon selection system
- The ability to use the 360 weapon selection process as well
- Mouse & Keyboard
- $10 less
- Mods
- Higher Resolution
- Better shadows
- Better particle effects
- Better dynamic water (Plays a large part in this game)
- No need to continue...

360
- Fanboys can attempt to justify their purchase

Considering how you can get a 360 controller for your PC if you are dumb enough to prefer it, there is no advantage to the 360 version.

and the winner is ps3. meow!

I lol at the people who think it was a waste to get a nice pc to play games on, you saved money on your 360 huh? well they have the option of playing bioshock, starcraft 2 and crysis. and you can bank on Halo 3 makin its way to pc's eventually.

PC gaming is the best hands down, would I buy a PC to play games on? No, first party SONY titles dont wind up on PC's but I certainly am not gonna snub my nose at PC gamers like a twat.

btw Starcraft 2 is gonna own, Im genuinley jealous PC gamers...

I wish they would RELEASE THE FRIKKIN PC DEMO so I could decide which version I want!!!

I used to be a hardcore pc gamer when Unreal 2004 was around. The keyboard mouse setup is definitely easier to aim compared to a controller. But when Halo 2 came out, I quickly changed to a console gamer.

Certain games like this would be easier on a pc where you can easily set up anything with a press of a keyboard button but nothing beats playing a game of this quality in the living room or bedroom over an office setup.

The 360 is THEE version to get....you need atleast a dual core 2 processor if you want to run this beast around the same level as the 360. That is definitely the minority and I'm not going to spend hundreds of dollers to upgrade my pc. Especially when a pentium 4 is good enough to run most apps in the pc world.

Games that are found on the console and pc are simply better graphically than the console.

Why because a pc simply has more horsepower to pump out visual quality of the games.

But this thing brings up the debate that the pc costs more..... wtf does that have to do with the game itself.

Plus the control schema is more flexible on a pc, if ppl truly like the control pad over the mouse.... umm guess what you can plug a pc with a control pad and connect it to projector and play in your living room.

As for multiplayer games..... this is a subjective matter.. and very touchy area for the fanboys. Console fanboys usually go on the excuse that its so much easier to setup a multiplayer session with friends. LOL honestly i've played inet multiplayer games for the longest time and it is easy to setup a session. Maybe most ppl are simply not educated enough to click a few buttons.

Lastly bare in mind a freaking console is just a pc with fixed components.

The Xbox 720 will win its console race by a much larger margin than the 360 in its own console race and you know why???????? The Xbox 720 is going to be totally compatible with PC game titles as well as its own titles. This is supposed to be a secret weapon of Microsoft's next box, but I found out......can't tell you how...........just believe it. You will be able to pop in a pcdvd or nextgen format and the nextbox will recognize and install it to the box's hard drive. Microsoft was pushing for some virtual hard drive support where let's just say infinite space will be available for every xbox gamer, all without having to break the bank. Different sizes will be available on the next iteration of the Xbox Live Marketplace. I can't say anymore.

My rigs primed for some "shocking" action!!!

PC's may have better graphics, but having to play on those small screens is really annoying. Playing a game on a 50" screen is just so much more satisfying and adding a sofa to the mix just makes it that much better.

Ok,

If you are an old school gamer, you already have PC hardware that can run this game. You will be getting the PC version, with Keyboard and Mouse.

I for one, am a person who is not willing to let Microsoft treat me like crap. I am not willing to buy defective hardware. Lets all be honest. Get Serious!

ps
Anybody still play q2ctf?

When they compare PC vs console games-shouldn't they compare it at the SAME resolution?? If not, then why don't they just compare one game on standard res to the same game on HD.

And the fact that you can map weapons etc. to the keyboard doesn't necessarily make it better than a controller. But that certainly is a PC high-point.

The controller has VIBRATION and is therefore more immersive to the player. This is the consoles high-point. So bottom line is your preference.

PS3 is the only next gen, and youve seen it for 2 years now

pc is second hand, despite its price, oh well

AIZEN SAMA

Just look at Oblivion, for example. When I played it for the first time, it was on 360. I popped it in and enjoyed the hell out of it. I got immersed in the game and story. What did 100% of the PC guys end up doing for the first few DAYS or WEEKs of gameplay? They trying running it! LMAO. They had to tweak and tune and be all "wannabe PC elitist" with their INI files or whatever. BORRRRIINGGGGGG. zzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzzz

Yes I own both versions and have created popular mods and texture packs for the PC version. I know what im talking about.

360 > PC

Bioshock will be no different. I will be lost in an amazing game on my massive LCD HDTV. PC "elitists" will be tuning settings for days with their 15 inch monitors instead of playing LOL.

PC version will always look better.. Allways!

Sorry fanboys

And I would choose mouse/keyb over analogue sticks anyday

Now Xbox fanboys are trying to tear down my beloved PC!?

Your Xbox 360 will never compare to the sheer power of my PC. I will run Crysis on max settings with smooth silky, sexy framerates.

How can you even compare Bioshock via Xbox360 ---> PC, graphically???

PC game controllers make the controller comparison non-existent since there are many out there that should suit your comfort needs.

Don't even compare the PC maintenance to Xbox360. We've got liquid cooling and self upgrading updates and self updating security fixes. A responsible computer owner will take care of his/her PC.

Havn't I heard something about Xbox 360 scratching discs that become unplayable afterwards? And what about the thing where they simply burn out from overheating? I have seen the internals of the 360 and was impressed by the layout, including the sweet looking heatsink for the cpu. What went wrong?

This have been a much longer war than any xbox vs. playstation flamewar. PC gamers are capable of displaying alot of hate towards console gamers as they feel as if developers that should have the pc front and center are instead focusing mainly on the consoles of the day, limiting alot of what you get on PC versions. But the fact of the matter is PCs do not make up the number of game sales that consoles do. Don't get me wrong, that sell alot, and you have WoW players out there, but it is only a matter of time before consoles take everything from the PC and it will eventually be even more of just a cult following regarding games while consoles like the Xbox and its successors absorb more and more of the gaming public. The average consumer prefer a big screen lcd and a console playing AAA games lounging on their sofa rather than sitting in an uncomfortable chair for hours on end looking into a smaller screen, even if greater graphics are touted. And btw, I don't care how good Bioshock looks on the pc, the xbox version is stellar, so that argument is dead to me. But as I said, PC gamers vs. consoles gamers have been a much bigger flamefest as PC gamers truly resent the console gamer. Plus, games being touted like Crysis will require you to spend loads of money trying to get your pc to display and run it like the developer intended it to, which in some cases costs several thousand dollars, even Bioshock requires quite the beefy system to run it smoothly, or you can spend alot less on an xbox or even a ps3 and enjoy the gaming experience alot more. Also, controller based games are far more popular than keyboard/mouse games. PC gamers will settle for nothing less, while the console gamers will never fully convert to keyboard/mouse for their main pointing devices on a console. And now with Microsoft introductin more genres that were once only pc, like RTS to the masses on consoles, pc gamers will scream at the top of their lungs, cursing the stunted scum who dare to think that their "console" even holds a candle to a pc version. This, however brings us to the current console war regarding the whole, "my system is more powerful than yours comments." More than graphics, millions of dollars are poured into marketing for gaming consoles while anything for pcs are always an afterthought. Anytime you see a commercial listing formats for a multiplatform game, the pc version is always at the end of the list, and the reason is because consoles are where true profit lingers, and while the PC will also take part in the success, their attitude would be somewhat similar to a benchwarmer for the Chicago Bulls taking part in celebrations right after Michael Jordan and others just won the NBA championship, I mean they are happy that they're all on the same team and that all of them somewhat share the success of the team, but they also realize that they will receive alot less attention than the team captains. And this will always be the case with multiplatform games that also end up on the pc. The pc will be the benchwarmer while the xbox and ps3 will be Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, and the Wii.....well, the wii will be, uh...........

You've got some nice points. But most of the reason why I agreed with you is because I like your avatar of Pennywise from Steven Kings IT. :-)

because I used to hate it when I would game for long sessions on a PC hunched over and taking tylenol for the muscle and bone aches just so I could game. I'm not hating PC I'm a PC fan just as much as I'm a console fan, I'm just saying gaming is done better lying on a comfortable couch with your feet up then it is with your face 6 inches from the screen, back hunched forward, eyes burning and your hands locked in a mouse and keyboard death grip.

Now if you want looks and can afford a $1500 PC, then get the PC version but if your on a budget (like most people) and prefer relaxation get the console version and you don't have to spend hours tweaking the PC version just to get it to work on your PC graphics card and low memory problems.

"meant for angry pc guys" also, pretty funny the guy made about pc owners being hunched over taking tylenol eyes burning from face being like right there in front of the screen.

the pc version really looks much better. why?

pc version is best there, that's it!

nothing else to say, but the PC version rocks

A Bioshock film with cheap special effects? A hard pass.

Stop making films and start making series. You cannot cover this game in a 2 hour movie. Also the only live action adaptation worth watching was Yu Yu and One Piece, I can only trust in Netflix absolutely butchering this.

I remember that originally Gore Verbinski was going to do a BioShock film nearly 15 years ago, lol

The only time I like b-movies are when they are so bad they are good. Hopefully it’s in that category not just bad. Bioshock deserves better.
