BioShock PS3 visuals to be no different from Xbox 360 version

BioShock - Image 1 


The PS3 is known for its superb graphical capabilities, that's why every game landing in PS3 territory is expected to showcase excellent visuals. That's why when an already big game is finally brought in to the PS3, then it is inevitable that people will be looking out for "bigger, better visuals."

Unfortunately, that won't be the case for 2K Games' famed BioShock. In an interview, senior producer Melissa Miller disclosed that the company is not keen on improving the visuals of the game for the PS3 version, but rather, they are concentrating more on providing for better matching.

"We're looking to match the quality of the original version. We want to make sure that the water is just as great, and I think you can see from the demonstration, that it looks no different from the 360 version," so she says.

However, some good may have been had from them not focusing too much on altering the visuals, because they then had more opportunity to work on other aspects of the game, such as the upcoming exclusive download content. The DLC presents the "Challenge Rooms" that is set outside of the main storyline, but is still within Rapture. Plus, there's also the new Trophies system that'll definitely get the game more challenging.

Well, you certainly can't have it all. But rest assured, you'll definitely be getting more news and updates on BioShock here at QJ. Oh, and the game too, of course, making its way this October.

Devs said it'd be better around the time it was announced for PS3.



But regardless, I'll wait and see. I won't say it'll be better than or matching the 360 version because I'll need to see it first.



Still, even matching it is nothing to be ashamed of. It's a beautiful game.

That's what I thought, too. Bioshock graphics are cool enough, and it's only fair to make all versions the same, although the DLC thing is another story...

Of course they will say that the visuals won't be any different. 360 fans already know that we are getting exclusive content and everything including trophies. They don't want 360 fans to think that they bought a incomplete/inferior version. The graphics will be better on the PS3 and then we can wait for the GT comparison video to tell us lies.

Keep telling that to yourself fanboy. I think i'll trust developers over some random, bitter PS3 fanboy over the internet.
