these games arnt worth buying, i will rent it beat the game and return it, if it doesnt have MP its not worth keeping.

plus halo has a reat story, great graphics, great gameplay, amazing MP, rolled up into one, i think halo 3 has more going for it :roll:

raidenseven

So, even if Bioshock is has the best single player campaign of the decade (and, juding from System Shock 2, it probably will), you're not going to buy this game? But you would buy it if they tacked on a crappy deathmatch mode?

Well, 1up are also the guys that called resistance a "halo killer" once. So I would take that with a grain of salt. Sometimes they can get way to hyped for a game. Like with VT5, which they gave a 9.5 over there... Though, it's undeniable that bioshock should be a good game...

About 50 minutes in they start talking about Bioshock and a few minutes before that he bags out Lair

"A.I. is phenomenal"

"It potentially will beat the poo out of everything out there and yes i am including Halo 3 and yes i am including Mass Effect"

"Even if you just straight stream through it, ignoring everything you could to just get through everything you can it could to just get through it as fast as you can it's going to take you easily, easily over 12 hours"

"It's is well over 20 hours if you are playing the game and have fun with it"

"Absolute show piece for the 360"

"There's also characters that are totally bizzare and cool you meet along the way"

"Once you pick up the controller and go into Rapture you will not want to put it down"

"Let me tell you what, the pacing, might be the best pacing in a FPS ever"

"There's so much to see, so much to do"

"You can play this game like a stealth game, you could play this game very Tom Clancyish"

"Not only is the conclusion satisfying but the lead up to the conclusion brings everything home very well"

And he also says the story is absolutely better than HL1 and 2

solidte

I'm really glad since the lack of groundbreaking games is getting very very annoying,

Well.

I dont know about sales, but the PC version kills the 360 version - undoubtly

And the 360 is a low - med end PC.... Current cheap gaming PCs reder 360 hardware obselete.

Kid you not.

God, you PC fans make me laugh. I love how you take EVERY chance to point out the PC is better than God himself. I was just pointing out how most people play such games on a console and so most attention goes to the console version.

Do you honestly think even 10% of the PS3 owners will be playing Bioshock on a high end PC???

See what I mean?

We all know the PC is the bee's knees so relax...lol...

Most PC gamers will be running Bioshock on 360 equivilant or higher settings.

And im replying to your comment "Kids on system wars always seem to forget how few people own high end PCs capable of playing these "multiplat" games." Which is bogus.

And wtf has this got to do with PS3 owners?

Im not stating false information....

Console fanboys make me laugh.

Sorry, didn't think you would take that so personally. Calm down there son.

Look at it this way. When I say "high end PC", I don't mean the best you can buy for your money, I just mean a much better PC compared to the AVERAGE pc owner. Less than 1% of PC owners have a rig that can run Bioshock at a respectable setting. Thus, those who do have what I would call a high end PC rig.

Cool? Understand? hope so...

As for Console fanboy, calling me that IS a laugh. You have no idea buddy.

I'm just not biased. PC version will own, just few people will own it.

'Taking this personally'? LoL im not, im I emulated your whole 'God, you PC fans make me laugh' comment - which worked to an extent. If anything you have been thanking this 'personally' since your response to my reply....

So we are comparing the billions* of work station PCs or basic home internet PCs that were never designed with gaming in mind, to PC gamers rigs? As I said almost any PC gamer has a respectable rig capable of running bioshock.

And im sure I have a better idea than you

Oh and considering that over 10 million DX10 GPUs had been sold by Q1 2007..... Alot of people technically could run Bioshock on better setttings than the 360 version....

As for 'few people will own it' - ? How will 'few people own it'? All of a sudden titles on PC dont sell well?..... Hmmm....

Yep, you made it real clear you are not taking this personal at all.

By your logic I would expect the PC version of Bioshock to sell way more copies than it will. That's all I have to say and you can think w/e of me you want, I'll lose no sleep over it as I honestly care very little about this topic in general and have no desire to carry on this tired debate.

I was comparing console sales to PC sales and you took this in the wrong direction. But who gives a crap b/c it's just a video game and there are FAR more important things in life, or at least my life.

ok?

God of War 2 is one of the most fun action games I have played, but I only rented it b/c I knew I would only want to play through it once.

Some people don't like playing some games more than once. There are plenty of AAA amazing games I rent b/c I only really enjoy playing them once. Sometimes I'll rent them again months later but not often.

Bioshock I'll probably buy due to the replay potential, but I don't think high AAA is always equal to a purchase.

Shadow of the Colossus is a prime example in my book.

Ive got a High-end PC...its not like having a high-sort of and end PC is a rare unreal thing...Id much rather have it on PC than 360 because of

1. Better GFX(dx 10)

2. M/K IMO

3. Better framerate

4. Better interface IMO

WTF? Is that to me? Did you even read what I said?

I agree PC is the way to go, but that is NOT what I am talking about kids.

Yes and no. I have a ps3 and I have a High-End PC so its not a rare thing....and I have personal friends who have a ps3 and a High-end PC so its not a rare thing....your 1% analogy FAILS

I'm sure you do mr 78. I have friends with 4 360's and 4 HDTV's in the same room. Plenty of them with no high end pc. :p

First off, lol and I could say the same thing about you ;)

I never said the PC version would sell more than the 360 one - I simply stated how many GPUs had been sold. Im simply countering your comment that quote "just few people will own" the PC version....

And sure you can compare console sales to PC sales, and I can certainlly argue that in favour. Hell HL2 is estimated to have sold over 10 million copies - retail, bundled and digital distribution.

this game is shaping up to be either one of the greatest game of all time, or the most overrated game of all time and dear god, i hope it is not the latter.

How does his 1% analogy fail because four of your friends have high-end PCs compared to the probably 20 million or more people who own aPC and play games on them. I'm not a math wiz but you and your 4 friends out of 20+ million are probably about .000000000000000000000000000000001%. With that said Im sure more then 1% of people have high-end PCs.

Personal experience doesent really = much....... Hell I have 12 friends locally with gaming PCs, and only one has an XBox 360 (not including me)....

I guess anyone can contradict another...

I was just trying to get at that its guaranteed that more than 1% of people have high-end PCs. I know there are more people that don't obviously....BUT if a couple of my friends have high-end PC's it shows that there are chances that alot of other people have them 2. Also, the sales of the 8800GTX makes it plainly obvious that more than 1% have high-end PC's.

Well Nvidia had sold over 10 million 8000 series GPUs by Q1 2007.... By the end of this year the number is going to be crazy high.

I'm buying the limited edition for both PC and Xbox 360. I'm weird like that. BioShockOwnz

That's the same reason why I'm getting UT3 for PS3 AND PC.

Could this be the game that finally replaces HL as my favorite FPS of all time and overall favorite game of all time?!
