Cappy 26 Jun '08 10:37:25	PS3 Bioshock the story so far? Cons: Worse framerate Worse graphics Pros: A bunch of bugs nobody seemed to notice, or at least mention got fixed. Non-essential bits added. Lightening and shuriken Plasmids? But no fixes for stuff people actually did moan about like the rubbish final boss? send message \| log in to reply!

Cappy 26 Jun '08 10:53:11	Is it possible flat shading might be an unlockable? I would have loved a flat shaded unlockable in MGS 4 to make a VR mode of the entire game. Bioshock could do with a Killer 7 mode. send message \| log in to reply!

DFawkes 26 Jun '08 11:00:14	I do like flat-shaded stuff, looks very retro. It's a nice unlockable I've seen a few times in games, like in Gears of War unlocked by it not accessing the disc fast enough ;) Actually I've only seen it once in Gears (the tyre on that vehicle section), but I do like it in the games that have it as a real unlockable, can't remember which ones at the moment. send message \| log in to reply!
IronGiant 04 Jul '08 10:30:53	Disc, any comments on the news about DE joining this project? hopefully they can bring the graphics upto a very decent level at least. send message \| log in to reply!

Blerk 04 Jul '08 10:39:29	Why would they ever take it out? :-D "It's running over 30fps at all times now." "Shit!" "What?" "It's too good!" "You're right. Let's ditch it." "Phew! That was close." send message \| log in to reply!

Cappy 04 Jul '08 11:17:10	Wasn't the 360 version locked above 30 fps though? Considering how far behind the PS3 release has lagged now isn't it a total embarrassment to release it in a state where it can dip as low as 20 fps? send message \| log in to reply!

Bloodkult 04 Jul '08 11:30:45	You could unlock the v-sync on the 360 vers in the options after the patch and the framerate was very fast and smooth indeed, but it screen tore like a mofo. send message \| log in to reply!
IronGiant 04 Jul '08 12:15:14	So they have a fix that will increase the framerate but it might not get implemented? Unbelievable. I think it's safe to say that we'd all stomach a 2 week delay or whatever to get a better and smoother game.. don't people realise that a Bioshock that runs well will be critically acclaimed and thus sell more! If it gets labelled as just another poor port to the PS3 then it'll sell considerably less. send message \| log in to reply!

Psychotext 04 Jul '08 12:30:05	All sounds reasonable enough. I think some of the fanboys will be expecting graphical improvements given the length of time between the releases... but fanboys are nuts anyway. send message \| log in to reply!

Cappy 04 Jul '08 12:50:12	They use the same assets yes, but a lot of what you see is post processed with effects for things like lighting and depth of field etc. As I understand it, a lot of that stuff has to have it's own PS3 specific implementation. send message \| log in to reply!
