Default Bioshock Out Now + PC/360 Demo - 08-12-2007, 07:56 PM

Was bored tonight so began looking at some trailers, got onto Bioshock, read that its now gone GOLD......and that some confirmed reviews have been pouring in (pun intended):

PC Gamer UK: 95%
OXM UK: 10
Game Informer: 10
Alternative Press: 10
Xbox World: 9.4
Gamers: 9.8
GamerTV: 10
PC Zone UK: 9.6


ed: ed: ed: ed: ed:

Wish my PC had the power to run this beast as its got to be one of the best looking games around.

Update: 2K Games has announced that the PC demo of BioShock is "in its final stages of testing and approval," and is planned to be released this month. The company did not definitively announce whether the demo will be released before the game's August 21 release date, but an announcement is expected soon.

Xbox 360 Demo is out now!

I woulda preferred a pc demo at the same time to check dx10 performance, just seems kinda funny that the 360 demo is ready but the pc demo isn't even though this anouncement was planned a few weeks ago. Just seems to me ms wanted a demo exclusive for the 360 so told 2k to keep back the pc demo. mad:

Guess i'll go grab the demo, but something about this game just doesnt feel right. I dont know what it is but watching the videos something just feels off. Maybe its the environment, or the weapons, but its off.

This is like 56k days all over again, youd think for a game that has been hyped this much (and going by the reviews can back up the hype easily) that ms woulda allocated a ton more bandwidth to the live servers.

Yea i got that feeling too, i thought the weapon models looked a little awkward and also the enemy attack motions.

7%.. oOo:


Could probably code my own version of this game faster than the demo will dload.

Yet another fuck up by ms and their never ending habit of big name game demos swamping the live servers.
