Bioshock for PC or 360?

JoeBoi · 31 Aug 2007 at 18:45

Guys I know probs not posting this in the right forum but can anyone see why I should get the game on the 360 rather then the PC?

Xbox has achievment points and if you got a really nice tv i suppose thats the only good points.

Less likely to be a £30 paperweight.

Bioshock need a good PC to run well .... what spec do you have ?

JoeBoi · 31 Aug 2007 at 18:49

Specs in the sig nothings been overclocked, I get bored of single player games really but need something as I'm off for 2 weeks achievement points apeal to me quite abit. Will mods come out for Bioshock on the pc?

whats achievement points?
plus remember the semi high requirement for Bioshock ona PC it must have a SM3 gfx card

edit: Your pc will run it great

If you have the pc, get it for the pc. Playing with a mouse just feels more imersive.

Get it for pc, will run very nicely on high settings on your spec. My brother has a very similar setup and his runs great.

Does Bioshock have frame problems on the xbox I'll be using my Nec monitor I'm thinking of the pc version more really, Any idea if people will bring out mods for the game at all I've been living in a cave

Oh don't forget the game natively supports the xbox360 controllers. Just played through the demo on PC with one, enjoyed it probably more than I did with a mouse and keyboard as I could sit back and be more comfortable, the controls feel natural too.
Love it

With your spec, you definitely want the PC version.

doubt there will be "mods" so to speak.

i can see/have heard that 2k are releasing more plasmids/tonics? might just be bullocks though.

Think I'm gonna go with pc version cheaper anyway

Does Bioshock acess things from the DVD or is it all stored on the HDD?

Just got a 32" LCD SONY Bravia TV and Bioshock on the 360 and it looks the dogs balls on it.

I got a hdtv with my pc ? so that leaves achievment points.
You specs will run it well they almost the same as mine buy mine are overclocked.

I'd say PC, or at least I bought BioShock for my PC rather than my Xbox 360. Mainly because I prefer using a keyboard and a mouse to play first person shooters and the graphics and sound would have been better from the PC (the sound in BioShock was meant to be stunning, and it is

). The only reason I can see to buy the Xbox 360 version over the PC version is to add to your Achievement Points and to avoid a semi-rootkit

PC version if you have the PC to run it. I play Bioshock hooked up to the Sony 40" and at 1920x1080 it looks le chein's nads.

It reads everything from the HD from memory.

LoadsaMoney · 31 Aug 2007 at 22:16

You want the PC version with that spec, will run it maxed no probs, mine does, absolutely flys. :cool:

Mooron455 · 31 Aug 2007 at 22:34

I think 360 tbh, i've seen both versions and it seems to me like the 360 owns all haha

it all depends on how good the PC is though really obv

but i'll go with 360 just because it feels good and i own one haha
