Great game, so PS3-only gamers should be enthused about this.
Partially started a second game on hard mode/no vita-chamber after the DLC dropped for 360. Hoping to get back to it soon.

Damn. I have the PC version I bought a couple of months back, but I haven't played it yet. Now the PS3 version is coming out....

I had a 360 as well until it RRODed the second time during the period after the warranty was up but before it was extended to 3 years (unluckiest period ever). So I sold everything on craigslist, and took the money and invested into improving my PC.
Between that and PS3, I have not really missed much since then.
And a 360 can always make its way back once the price is down and there are enough exclusives that warrant it.
By the way, I don't necessarily see someone posting bad things about Bioshock after the launch praise on the 360 as a biased thing at all. If the PC was going to get a perfect GTAIV port this fall, I would have a few negative things to say about it today. Of course, I didn't feel like that at all during the first week or two.
It takes a few months for the hype to settle before people can get a clear, objective look at the game. Honestly I like the after-party threads much much more than a super-mega-launch thread, even though those are fun too.

:lol off course you guys should play Bioshock. Its a really good game, one of the better ones that came out last year. The thing is I didnt see the super-over-the-top awesomeness that some people were seeing. That is what I meant with overrated (imo).
Not that I really care, I played Bioshock PC and found it exceedingly overrated, but lol @ the spin people are trying to put on it.
Please, the amount of hype this game got before and after release made it seem like the FPS second coming of Jesus Christ the Holy Saviour. And now it's "good... for 2007"?
For PS3-only owners, this is good news. Even though it wasn't for me, everyone should give it a try. At worst, it's a 7/10 IMO.

Great to see more people will get to enjoy the best game of 2007 (for me).

Especially if you never played System Shock or Deus Ex. And you don't see seams when games are formulaic. You should really enjoy it. Now if you were expecting a prettier version of those above games, you will be disappointed. And if you see seams and get annoyed when you're put onto one bland errand fetch after another, you'll be bitterly disappointed. I know I was.

"Proof why xbox's best shooter is better on PS3"
Curious to see if this is in fact true.
Made the mistake of playing halo and gears instead of this on a borrowed 360 last year. Looking forward to buying it now.

BioShock is a great game. I don't know what exactly "the haters" were expecting, but it was my favorite single-player game of last year.
It's just cool to tear things down that others love, especially on GAF.

I'll only buy it if it's less than 40 bucks, it's a year old port....that's the same reason I got Oblivion for 20 bucks and not 60.

No. The 360 version did get true widescreen with the patch.BenjaminBirdie said:

So apparently I'm late to the bitch fest regarding the widescreen differences. According to the Wikipedia article on Bioshock, which btw. is already updated to inlude the announcement of the PS3 port, you get a larger field of view above and below the widescreen view if you play it in 4:3?
How is this a problem? Surely the game is designed for widescreen, and playing it in 4:3 only adds redundancy to the FOV?

I had huge hype for Bioshock, from what I saw (having never played the previous Shock games) it looked fresh and innovative and everyone told me it was fresh and innovative.dammitmattt said:
But the morality play is pretty much non-existent and complete black and white.
The AI is bone-headed at best.
The difficulty also is laughable. Which combines with the aforementioned for no horror.
Puzzles were too easy.
Incredibly atmospheric, but otherwise, it fell vastly short of my expectations.

PS3 just got the best game available on the 360.
dammitmattt said:
It's a decent game. A good game. And if you blindly picked it up, you'd be pleasantly surprised by it's quality.
But to say people tear it down cause it's "cool" is a very narrow minded thing to say. The game has some major flaws to it. Is everyone the same? No. Do all people see the same things? No. Do different things annoy different people? Yes. People who complain about this game are doing so because of very valid reasons. Those reasons may not be a pet peeve of yours and therefore not bother you, but it doesn't mean they're not real issues. And the fact that reviewers were so silent on these issues was gonna create backlash. Rightfully so.

Hope this happens, this is really the only game on 360 I've been wanting to play.

That's the problem. Everyone judged it based on what others were saying instead of tuning that out and just judging it for what it was.
Also, to address your points, the AI is NOT bone-headed at best. The enemies, Big Daddies, and bosses do what they're supposed to do. It is too easy on normal, but hard is a decent challenge, especially if you turn off Vita-Chambers. Puzzles should be easy - it's not a puzzle game! No one complained about RE4's puzzles being too easy. Also, there's something wrong with you if you didn't experience some level of horror upon first seeing and then first fighting a Big Daddy.
