BioShock Has Some Issues
Over at the BioShock forums, a lot of people are reporting various technical issues with the PC version. Some have had crashes every 3-4 hours with the game, other experience that their PC spontaneously reboots, and a lot of people are reporting that it simply freezes, where a reboot is then required. On top of that, the game has been criticized for lack of real widescreen support.
Personally, I have played the Xbox 360 version without problems, but sure enough, the PC version did cause my PC to crash at least a few times during the few hours I played it. Considering the amount of people who are reporting the same problems, it seems that 2K should start thinking about a patch, ASAP.

Some reason at the end of bioshock(360) version it would have fps issues.. I felt them pull and chop up. Still a great game though, amazing how they did a bad job on the pc. But, doom 3 did too. If anyone played it when it first came out, it would lock up loading the 2nd mission. I think 2k will fix it.

I’m glad I got the 360 version of this game … man all I see on the PC boards on gamespot are people having problems.

I have both, but yeah the 360 verion is great. But, it lags up sometimes if u play for a couple of hrs/… It skips, I thought it was just me.. even gamespot.. the main guy even stated it and others even stated it. I wish the game didnt do that.

How is it possible? I mean, those are common problems for a game. Don’t they test the game before releasing it?
Thank god patches DO exist…

Yeah, but still sasukex.. This is bs.. I feel thats wrong to do that to people.. some people dont have net access.. I dont mind the MP being buggy.. but come on dont release something that’s basically in beta form

Is it possible the PC version could just be a port from the 360? Or just bascially a beta like wicker man said..

Yeah i got the 360 version and it was running perfecto up until i got to the plot twist in the game involving fontane. after that it would skip like crazy even after i turned it off for a while, and i know for a fact the CD is in perfect shape. Im kinda pissed off actually i love that game and now i dont even want to play it. Anyone else have skipping or lag on the 360?
