I'm sad to see this thread with lack of updates. This isn't exactly completely fresh (It's a week or so old) but for the sake of keeping this thread alive, Developer Diary #2 HD. And Just in case you haven't seen the other one.

Man i need OXM scans that had given 10/10.
Want to read what they say.

Elixir Aug 5, 2007 12:34 AM

Cool, a game which makes use of the FPS perspective without being utter bullshit (re: 99.99999990% of all 360's FPS games) or war trash in general (Battlefield, Day of Defeat, Conflict, Call of Duty, I could go on).

I thoroughly enjoyed System Shock 1 and 2. They are up there with Starcraft in terms of my most enjoyed PC games ever. Hope to see something worthwhile out of this (also hope the 360's right analogue stick doesn't drag it down too much).

Gechmir Aug 5, 2007 10:27 AM

What really intrigues me is the fact that this'll have a nice story/plot to it. 99% of shooters have a plot written by a five year old. I mean really, the storyline progression is typically rather fucking horrid -- you'd think they would care more about that. But I guess I'm in a minority...

Bioshock hopefully won't disappoint. It has good potential.

Grundlefield Earth Aug 5, 2007 12:23 PM

Yeah OXM UK gave it 10/10 (SCANS are at gametrailers forums somewhere)and PC GAMER 95% so far. Rumors are that Game Informer also gave it a 10.

And Elixir right analog problems on 360? Yeah fucking right. The xbox controllers were practically made for such games. Frankly, I will take a controller over keyboard nowadays. But thats just me.

Oh and whatever this is. http://gamers-creed.com/?p=217

I'm curious as to who's getting the PC or X-Box 360 version. Kind of teetering on the 360 version mostly because I don't have a PC that's capable of running the damned thing well right now.

Ramenbetsu Aug 9, 2007 12:19 PM

I'm in the exact position. I've decided that my experience will probably be way more consistent on the 360.

Inhert Aug 9, 2007 12:49 PM

well my PC is right on the recommended setting so I should be able to run it fairly well and since I don't have a 360 I guess the choice is not that complicated XD

and like everyone, I prefer a mouse and keyboard for FPS games.

Gechmir Aug 9, 2007 01:20 PM

I'm running it on my laptop =o I have an uber lappy that can probably run it on (or close to?) max settings.

No 360, and I'm banking on being able to play this as I move around.

Iwata Aug 9, 2007 03:05 PM

I'm going for the 360 version. Plus, nowadays i'm more of a fan of the controller layout for FP based games then the keyboard/mouse combo and I think the controller just feels far more natural then the WASD/mouse combo nowadays, IMO.

Plus, the 360 has Achievements. I'm a whore for them and given the ingenuity that has come from the team behind bioshock in the past; they'll most likely make the achievements to be pretty nifty.

The achievements have been out for awhile now.

I'm not discrediting the game, but there's something about it that never really got me hyped about it. I think it's because Mass Effect blows it out of the water for me but I really don't know. Therefore I'm going to DL the game for the PC first and see how much I like it before deciding when I'm going to buy it and for what.

Also if the PC version looks better (which they usually do) then I'll probably get that unless I find out otherwise.

Well, it's pretty likely that you'd be able to use the Xbox 360 controller on the PC version as well, so either way you'd be able to play it with that.

At the same time Ken Levine has already stated the pc and 360 versions are by 2 different branches of irrational. The team focusing on the PC version is making it slightly harder, changing menus and of course elimination any sort of aim assist. I don't see why you'd WANT to play with a controller.

Rotorblade Aug 9, 2007 09:38 PM

Looks like I'm buying both, Tokubetsu.

As long as you're paying for it!

Ramenbetsu Aug 12, 2007 09:21 PM

Demo is out and Major Nelson (LAME) has a podcast out with an interview with Ken Levine (Lead Designer) on the demo and the game in general

Parn Aug 12, 2007 09:59 PM

Amusingly enough, the volume of people downloading it all at once is causing some disruption of XBL services. I won't be able to play it until tomorrow evening since I have to hit the sack shortly for work in the morning, but at least I have something major to look forward to.

Miles Aug 12, 2007 10:27 PM

It is. Right now I can't reconnect to the PSU servers because of that demo. Might as well join the party and grab it like everyone else.

Inhert Aug 12, 2007 10:50 PM

figures that the demo would be only for the 360 ; ; anyone know if there will be one for the PC and so before the release date?

Gechmir Aug 12, 2007 11:22 PM

I doubt it =(

Alai Aug 13, 2007 11:22 AM

I'll be playing this on the PC. I've recently got an 8800gts, so I should be able to run it without a hitch at 1650x1080. I can't wait!

I prefer FPS's on the computer, but I'm sure the Xbox 360 can handle this game just fine for you guys that will be console gaming.

Slayer X Aug 13, 2007 11:51 PM

I would guess if you have a good enough PC that the PC version should have a bit higher effect, particle, and AA abilities if it folloes the trend of other games that are on bot machienes.

As far as a PC demo goes, official word is that it'll be out in a couple of weeks. Like preciously mentioned, the PC and 360 versions are being done by seperate teams, therefore the demo development are not linked by any means.

Grundlefield Earth Aug 14, 2007 01:48 AM

No one cares since the game is out in six days. Anyone on this site should know that it's a must buy without a demo.

Inhert Aug 14, 2007 01:55 AM

but a PC demo would show us how the games would run on our PC... I don't want to buy the game to found out that it runs like crap...
