Bioshock...which system??

I am sad to admit that I have not yet played Bioshock. I definitely want to pick it up (probably will this week) before Bioshock 2 comes out. I have a 360, PS3, and a PC that should be able to run it fine. So I'm wondering which version I should buy and if there are any big differences between them, thanks in advance for any input.

Xbox 360. The original console it was on and plays great. No big difference except for tiny little texture improvementOblivionfan10

The PC version is probably the cheapest (hell, it was $5 during boxing week on Steam), the 360 version likely comes up next, and the PS3 version is the most recent so it'll be the most expensive. It also has some extra content, but the graphics aren't as good as the other two versions.DJ_Lae

Personal recommendation: None, since it's not very good. But if you're insistent, then I don't think any platform is downright superior in any regards, really. I'd say choose based off what you can find it cheapest for and and which control input (360, DS3, kb/m) you like best.LongZhiZi

[QUOTE="Oblivionfan10"][QUOTE="Paladin_King"] But if he HAS a PS3, why should he say no to that little, tiny improvement? It's there for him....it's not like the 360 version plays any better. Get it for PS3. The port is seemless. The install also shortens loading times. You also get another difficulty setting that removes vita-chambers, if you want the challenge. I believe the PS3 version also has some exclusive DLC. Nothing major or anything, but it's there. I think it's a couple of "challenge rooms" and some extra trophies. Honestly, unless you're a diehard PC gamer, if you haven't bought this game yet, there's not a whole lot of reason to not get the PS3 version.Paladin_King

[QUOTE="Paladin_King"][QUOTE="Oblivionfan10"] Oh, I forgot about the PS3 extras. Get the PS3 version, plus it'll give you an excuse to use it too.Oblivionfan10

[QUOTE="Oblivionfan10"][QUOTE="Paladin_King"] I had a feeling that there was a hint of 360 fanboyism in there.....Paladin_King

To be fair, gameplay wise, it's not as amazing as people make it out to be. It's not bad, but it's not great. It's just pretty good, or solid. What MAKES the game a must-have is the story, the atmosphere, and the world it creates.Paladin_King

Thanks for all the input guys, I heard that what makes the game is the atmosphere and story. After reading all your responses I'm leaning towards the PS3 version, but if I come across it on steam for that cheap I doubt I'll pass it up.

If I wanted a good story, I'd go read a novel, because I know that even the best video game story is only as good as the most middling novel, and why would I want to read a middling novel? If I wanted atmosphere, I'd watch videos of the game. Story and atmosphere are fine, but those are secondary features. If the game doesn't play well, then it's not worth a dime, atmosphere and story be damned.

I have both the PC and 360 version and there is really little between them. Like others have mentioned, if you want the complete game with all that is on offer at rapture than get the PS3 version, otherwise get what ever is cheaper at the time of purchase.

Either way the game is AMAZING, you will not be disappointed. I personally rate this as one of the best next gen games to date.

Bring on Bioshock 2 ;)

The PC has the best graphics (as all multiports).

WTH are you talking about ?!

Playstation 3, imo.
