BioShock demo was currently released onto the PS Network. I downloaded it, and played through the whole thing. Sure, beautiful graphics and fast gameplay, but I feel like a Im gonna do ALOT of back tracking in this game. At times it can be confusing, but Im feelin like I dont want it any more. :( It wasnt what I wanted.

What did you think about it:question:

I read a lot about the demo having bad quality graphics. It looks great on my TV, but I don't have the 360 version, so I can't compare it to that one. And I guess people that have both 360 and PS3 have the option to buy it cheaper for the 360.

The demo met my expectations, imo it loos like a great game.

My impression "WTF is big deal about this game?" Really DEMO was lame, so linear, and feels generic. Wow you have super powers like electricity, fire! WOW that is so awesome! NoT! Also price 60 bucks, full price for bad port? Game that you can buy for 30 bucks for PC and even less if buying used for 360? No thx. Graphics are awful, i dont know maybe after some PS3 games(Uncharted, Ratchet, MGS4) other games/multiplat games look average but overall i was disappointed, big time!

Its not a bad port! i personally liked the demo and am going to treat it as a new game not think of how it was on the 360! Plus on the full game there will be more plasmids not just fire and water!!

ive played through and beaten the entire game on the 360 and its honestly my 2nd favorite game of all time, 2nd only to oblivion. I like first person shooters in general so i was immediately attracted to this game. However, the first couple of hours of gameplay i thought it was just ok, an average shooter, yet it's not until you start getting better genetic enhancements and diving deeper into the story that it really kicks off and becomes one of the best games ever made.

first of all, to address your initial complaint, no, you hardly ever get lost. in fact, its often too easy to know where to go because there is a big arrow above you pointing you in the right direction plus a nice map if needed. and to address the haters statement above me, well that was a horrible post...you cant say a game is way too linear just judging it by a demo...especially when the game isnt linear at all really.

you really shouldnt pass up bioshock if you only own a ps3 and cant play it on a 360 or pc because it really is an extremely good game with one of the best stories ever, and easily the best atmosphere in a game to date. the amount of ways in which you can kill your enemies is endless and really makes it fun. if the final boss wasnt a let down the game would undoubtedly be a 10 out of 10.

There's hardly any backtracking in this game. I have it on 360 and its amazing. The story is just so clever

there are somewhere between 8 and 12 plasmids i believe...not to mention you can upgrade each gun three times from what i can remember. not to mention there are different types of ammo for each gun...not to mention you also have tonics and much more...so yeah

enemies & weapons little lame though, graphics were ridiculous
