Dr Game,
Is Bioshock worth getting on PS3 even though I've played it on the 360?
- Jack, via email
Ah Bioshock, in some ways to me it's overrated but in other ways it's one of the best games I've ever played.
If you have played it on the 360 but haven't bothered to download the content for it then I would suggest trading your 360 copy in for a PS3 copy because it features all the new plasmids and there is new DLC for it available but if you're like me and played through it and put it aside to play the next big thing then I would say give it a miss.
If you haven't played this game though then buy it now.
Bioshock had a lot of what I like to call "holy shit moments". The game is so atmospheric from the get go. One second you're sitting in a nice business class seat on your way to see your parents and the next thing you're in the ocean trying to swim for safety. You then follow the path to an underground citadel all while a creepy version of "Under the Sea" is playing in the background.
My only issue with it is that it can be sometimes a little too easy. When you die you spawn from a checkpoint but the damage to your enemies remains. So technically you could just go guns blazing at your enemy, die, then come back to finish the job without having to start again.
The final boss battle is way too easy as well.
Despite these flaws it's still a must play game. There is a demo on PSN if you want to check it out first but I guarantee you'll be buying this game if you haven't experience Bioshock before.
