BioShock PS3 demo in early October News
PlayStation 3 News by Robert Purchese
2K Games will be offering a PS3 demo of BioShock on 2nd October around the world.
That allows 22 days to decide whether to buy the full game on 24th October, which also happens to be my birthday.
Not that there should be too much to think about. BioShock remains a remarkable atmospheric achievement, and the acclaimed gameplay has been reproduced faithfully on PS3, according to Tom's recent hands-on preview.
Plus there are extras: an additional super-tricky difficulty level, downloadable Challenge Rooms, Trophy support and a, er, ten-minute installation sequence.
Head over to our Xbox 360 review of BioShock for our thoughts on one of the best games of 2007.

Same demo as the 360 version?, if it is, it's the best part of the entire game. All downhill after that, not to say it's not a great game it's just the early part is so good the rest of the game is a bit of a disappointment.

Well I loved the game, despite its flaws.
The intro did make me a little wet. But then later sections still had the same impact - crazy hospital (bit cliche, but so skank), the artist, etc.... |

I actually enjoyed my second play through more from a gameplay point of view (the good bits, anyway ;). Knowing what's coming next means you can use your kit more creatively and effectively. A great example is the room where you collect the red rose(?) thing in the garden area. Knowing that collecting it triggered a wave of enemies, I went in, hacked all the autocannons and cameras, and then booby-trapped the place to high heaven with bolt traps and explosives. When I triggered the enemies I hid in a corner and watched all hell break loose. Great fun. In the end I think I only had to kill one god-damned sploicer myself - nothing else made it through. It's the kind of thing I didn't do first go through because it could well prove to be a waste of ammo.

woodnotes - you're a muppet. Why not add the "I'm not paying $xxx to play one game" whilst you're at it.
>sigh< If anything, the 360 crowd should be pleased - if they make more money from this, it will mean more dev cash for Bioshock2, and a better game for them too. |

Yeah, maybe it wasn't that good at actually shooting stuff as say CoD4. Still, I'd play it for it's setting and story any day of the week.
If you're looking for a good shooter, maybe not. If you're looking for an atmospheric stroll in an insane world and structured a bit like Metroid. I'd say yes. |

These game is sooooooooooooooooo overrated, only halo can beat it in what concerns over rating... oh and by the way, choosing between the PS3/Xbox or PC version is a no brainer, if you have a decent PC that is (altough these game is not demanding).
