The Sony fanboys rear their heads for this rumor. Before it was Bioshock sucks. It's just another FPS...now... it's amazing and a day one buy...lol. So sad.

dogseye_deadhorse5839d ago

amazing? day one? i stil;l dont think so really.

but im not a fanboy i spose.

wolfehound225839d ago

I agree that a lot of PS3 fanboys did put this game down. But in the same regard there are quite a few PS3 exclusives that 360 fanboys put down that I am sure if were on the xbox they would be purchasing day one. But I am one PS3 owner that can't wait to play this game. This and Gears where one of the reasons I was thinking of getting a 360. This is great news and if this rumor does come true I will be purchasing day 1.

MisfitSmurf5839d ago

well its just like mgs4 and FF13 >.> when there was rumors about them going to the 360 the fanboys where all over it but when they were denied it went from "omg mgs4 is awesome to that game F**king sucks

Sangria5839d ago

Bioshock is clearly one of the best game of 2007, anyone should agree with that, fanboy or not. I actually never heard any fanboy saying Bioshock is crap or "simply another FPS".

There are games where quality is undeniable, like Okami, Bioshock or Metal Gear Solid.

Diugu5839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

I dont know what the DLC is... if it is nice than I will give it a try.

IF this is true.. which I am a bit skeptical about.

kevoncox5839d ago

Misfitsmurf -
I have Mgs as my 3 2 game of all time but I have almost no interest in MGS4. It looks great but the universe doesn't do it for me anymore. It's gotten too out of hand.

I think there are some fanstic games on ps3. However, i am waiting for it to become more afforable before I splurg on 1. With the US economy in the toliet a 499.00 purchase is a bit tough to swallow.

Qbanboi5839d ago

Well, one lest reason to buy a 360. Damn it, MS you aren't making this easy for me.

gambare5839d ago

now that's what everybody expected from the PS3 versions, and that's a good reason to buy it if you didn't had this title before.

uie4rhig5839d ago

@kevoncox..
i havent heard any fanboy saying the bioshock sux, coz they can't deny its greatness.. i mean it even won multiple awards.. so i dunno where you get that?

but owell who cares..

anyway

while i would love to play this on my ps3, i highly doubt it will come to the ps3.. knowing microsoft they will do ANY thing to keep this exclusive.. and until i hear this from either 2K or Sony.. i refuse to believe this!!

solidt125839d ago

I am a big Sony fan and I never said the game sucks. I bought the game on the 360 when it came out. Quite generalizing people. Some may have said that but not all Sony fans.

jtucker785839d ago

I'm a big Sony Fan too, but I've always respected the XBox 360 games library.
Bioshock is one game I've always wanted for the PS3.
Anyway you XBoys still have Gears 2, which looks fantastic. So I'm still jealous of that.

LastDance5839d ago

Im a sony fan...I never ever knocked bioshock..infact ive never seen anyone on this website knock bioshock.....Maybe some people saying the level design is repetitive but tahts it. Im very excited for this!

kosha5839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

Also when i got the latest issue of psm3 at the back it said top AAA FPS revealed next month. Maybe thats bioshock. Who knows?

If i was a 360 fan i wouldnt be that bothered as you will of already had that game a year and will be playing gears 2 anyway.

m-s-8-25839d ago

You could say im a sony "fanboy", and ill go on record right now saying I still couldnt care less about bioshock, whether on 360, pc or ps3. it could be good, it could be great, whatever. a fps with no multiplayer is at best a rental for me.

DARKKNIGHT5839d ago

lol who would buy this now?

killzone 2
resistance 2 anyone?

its simple: would you buy a game made for the ps3 or would you buy a game made for windows?

m-s-8-25839d ago

Resistance 2 is a definite buy for me. Insomniac has never made a game that ranks less than "GREAT" in my book.

Guerilla has shown me nothing in the past so ill wait for others reactions to KillZone, or my own on a rental since thats all its worth to me at this point in time.

Especially, with the past ports from xbox/pc to ps3, theres like a 75% chance itll suck balls anyways, even over a year later. The only actual good port that i can think of is Oblivion, to be honest.

somethingSQUISHY5839d ago

I don't see how this is any different than the many previous rumors to this same effect, except now there's actually a projected month of release.

Either way, I'm going to be picking up Bioshock at some point in the future. If the PS3 version remains unsubstantiated by the end of the summer, the 360 version will be mine.

Lifendz5839d ago

and very happy. This is one of those games that was gushed over by everyone and it was sorta unfortunate that PS3 owners were left out. Especially since it came out during that horrible 07 game drought (although I played Resistance every day and had a blast). I wonder what price they'll release it at. There are a lot of games out now. Not sure if I'd buy this game at full price. Not when I'll have MGS4, LBP, DMC4, GTAIV, Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2....wow...I could go on and on.

JBaby3435839d ago

I'm glad I didn't upgrade my PC to play it. I can just get it on my PS3. Hopefully their code runs well. They've had a while to optimize it. I'm curious to see if the visuals are really upgraded especially over the PC version. DLC included is tight though. Put it all on that Blu-ray.

iHEARTboobs5839d ago

Should be a great game. I never played it on the 360 or PC but i heard it's great so i'll definately look into it when it comes out. Are there any other big games dated for september release?

chaosatom3335839d ago

yesssssssssssssss

they have come around to give some love to the ps3.

power of Green 5839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

This is just a media outlet thats gotten a hold of the same recyled rumors floating around how many times do the devs have to say they're not working on a PS3 version?. Aren't they working on BioShock 2 right now?.

I know PS3 fans wan't to believe this due to their own 2008 lineup and to spite the 360 and its fans.

#2.1 the rumor will never die. LOL they said the PS3 version will have better visuals than 360 and even PC lol based on other games it would seem they would have trouble even matching the other version let alone getting better visuals.

power of Green 5839d ago

"Levine responds quite clearly, "I promise you, there is no secret plan about the PS3 that we're keeping from people. There's no PS3 development going on that we're hiding. There's lots of stuff that gets into game code, plans change over time and we got an exclusive deal with Microsoft ... that's not a Rosetta Stone discovery."

http://www.joystiq.com/2007...

"We get that they're trying to be clear, but 2K comes off sounding a bit like our dads. Their official statement on the 2K Games forums was:
"There will be no PS3 version of BioShock. It has been explained time and time again." A bit harsh, no?

http://www.joystiq.com/2007...

They say stop asking and spreading BS bassically and they're so sick of it they no longer respond to the rumor.

What makes you people think they could enhance the PS3 version when devs have trouble even matching the PS3 versions of titles with the 360 and PC versions of games.

Why would they waste their time with a FPS this year when they thought PS3 would have 6 FPS's this year(before the delays)Multi and exlsusives when they're working on Part 2?.

wolfehound225839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

Thats all well in good. All I am saying is this would be awsome. Maybe you should tone down your comments because if this does come true your posts will look pretty bad. I'm not saying its true theres just a lot of hints and rumors pointing towards the release.

http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News...
Here is a link to the PSM3 statying "the 'Big Daddy of secret AAA shooters' revealed next month", so I guess we all should just wait and see what this is about.

power of Green 5839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

I'm not worried about my posts looking pretty bad my comments are based from 95% multi platfrom games and the words of the devs themselfs vs the link you posted. Its Kevin comments that will pretty bad I'm simply quoting what he said(repeatedly).

I also read they're pretty busy with part 2 as well.

lessthanmarcus5839d ago

At least, the demo did. That's one less exclusive for Microsoft to thrown in our faces

Gaystation 35839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

Same source. Same lies.

misterssippi5839d ago

the DLC was free on the 360/PC version

Enigma_20995839d ago

... seeing as how he already said we wouldn't get it.

I would love to play it. But if it doesn't come out on the PS3, guess, what... I don't care. I don't think THAT much of it...

That's right, your "BIOSHOCK IS NOT COMING TO PS3, nyah, nyah, nyah..." posts mean nothing to me.

That being said, I still want a port of Earth Defense Force... come on, folks... throw me a bone here...

samfk5839d ago

also as for better visuals isnt that always said on this site but its very rarely true . well see

BIOSHOCK IS NOT COMING TO THE PS3

MetalProxy5839d ago

^^^^A little defensive about that game now are we! I dont see what the big deal is, cuz its not that great of game. But the 360 is losing alot of its so called exclusives. lol Cha Cow!

Fallen_Angel5839d ago

yup right after mgs 4 and ff 13 are released on the 360. This is the same mag that reported that they were porting those games to the 360 too after all.

RacingX5839d ago

You could be half right, Ken Levine said THEY were not working on a PS3 version, that does not mean EA went out and has another studio re-working it for PS3. I remember Itagaki-san saying he was not going to do PS3 games and everyone thought there would be no Ninja Gaiden, well, HE didn't do it, he hand picked a new producer to do the PS3 version for Tecmo. That's why I'm sure we'll see NGII someday, probably not soon, but IT will come. I think the same about Mass Effect, BioWare said they are not doing it, but that doesn't mean EA won't farm it out, redo it, give it a slight name change... Mass Effect- Galaxies in Crisis or something like that to keep the legal weasels off them....remember EA, is a huge conglomeration too....if there's $$$$ to be made EA WILL find away...

themyk5839d ago

thats funny how your insinuating the playstation is gay by having a pink avatar. isn't it the 360 that released pink controllers?

PS360WII5839d ago

Well how about that. I really didn't care for the game but it really is a popular title so have fun with it guys ^^

Panthers5839d ago

I never played it but it looked cool. Still it is an FPS with no MP, and I think my plate is full in September :) :) :) SOCOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

solidt125839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

I plan on playing through it again but this time on the PS3. I want to see how much the graphics have improve. Everyone must play this game. it is awesome.

Vip3r5839d ago

If this is true, then its a day one buy for me.

P4KY B5839d ago

On the 360 and PC the ending sucked big time.

Dark_Vendetta5839d ago

Not really it depends on how you were playing the game (there are 3 endings)

P4KY B5839d ago

i mean the fight with the 'hulk'.
it just didn't sit well with the other well thought out parts of the game.

xg-ei8ht5839d ago (Edited 5839d ago )

Well me and my brother both played it, both with different endings:0

I liked mine better - but i won't spoil it for others.

I played it on pc.

Was a good game.

One thing i did notice, there were ps3 controls encoded in the game:) Hmm.

Why BioShock Deserves the Dead Space Remake Treatment

Dead Space recently received a popular remake that was faithful yet constructive, and the original BioShock is also deserving of this treatment.

Read Full Story >>
gamerant.com
banger88403d ago

No it doesn't need it. It was remastered in 60 fps last gen and still looks and plays great. Would be a waste of time, money and resources imo. It's games from 3 or 4 gens back that could use the remake treatment.

FallenAngel1984402d ago

There have already been 7th gen remakes of games already

Dead Space in particular already proves that just because a game looks good on original hardware doesn’t mean it cant look and play better

Jin_Sakai402d ago

Agreed although I’m ready for some new groundbreaking IP this generation.

IamTylerDurden1402d ago (Edited 402d ago )

Agreed. Remasters already happened and still look n play fantastic. DS was a different animal. It needed a remake, Bioshock doesn't NEED it. Infinite Remastered for example is extremely viable even today. What we do need is Bioshock 4. Rumors that equated to zip. Where is it? Ken really blew the pooch as well. Left to go do what? He was inspired by Tell Tale or something and went off to become irrelevant. Nice. And Bioshock Vita was scrapped. Fantastic.

toxic-inferno401d ago

Bioshock 4 is definitely still in development. News trickles out about it every couple of months.

And Ken's next game (Judas) looks great from the teaser trailer.

IamTylerDurden1402d ago (Edited 402d ago )

Yeah. Pretty much. I understand why they did it with TLOU to coincide with the show but certainly it didn't NEED a remake desperately. Obviously u are trolling and expect me defend anything Sony but idgaf about all that. I say what i feel is the truth.

Just like TLOU i wouldn't be upset if Bioshock received a remake but it doesn't desperately need it. I'd probably even play it bc like TLOU, i love Bioshock, but in these aren't identical scenarios either. Ppl kill ND for TLOU Remake yet it wasn't even their project originaly. It started as a potential Uncharted remake and passion project via Visual Arts and was passed to Bend i believe? ND took over bc the project obviously wasn't where it needed to be. And yet they still had Factions and possibly TLOU 3 in development as well. Bioshock has been dormant for a decade bar the remaster. Rumors of a sequel haven't materialised. A remake without a sequel would be disappointing. TLOU Remake is more tolerable knowing sequel/spinoffs are in development. Like i said, dif situation.

neutralgamer1992402d ago

It's not all about looks only

Tweaks to story
Tweaks to characters
Improvements to gameplay

Original bioshock have the worst puzzle solving system and can get frustrating quickly

WiiU-Dude401d ago

The last part you said I agree COMPLETELY!!! Game companies need to mine games from the Sega Saturn, PS1 and N64 days and even the Dreamcast, GameCube, and PS2 days to give a full update to. I know those would require more work, but there are PLENTY of gems from those days that people would LOVE to play again or for the first time with a facelift!!! I know I would.

Binarycode402d ago

The games that need remaking are.

Resistance fall of man.
Motorstorm.

PS5 would produce something special.

There's been such an advancement in tech since the PS3 days. It would be awesome. DAY 1 BUY for me.

Storm23402d ago

I would kill for Resistance 1-3 Remake/Remaster. Same with MotorStorm series and Killzone series. Man, I loved my PS3. Can we also get the Metal Gear series and rescue MGS4 off the PS3? There is a rumor of MGS3 getting a remake. One of, if not my number 1, favorite game of all time.

On topic, I played Bioshock like 6 months after release after hearing from everyone and their mother how incredible it was. I know I will be in the minority on this, but I couldn't get into it. I think my expectations were too high. Totally my fault. Maybe I should give it another chance...

IamTylerDurden1402d ago (Edited 402d ago )

Agreed, Killzone as well, but Sony has no interest in the future of those IP. It won't happen. If they cared about Motorstorm they wouldn't have axed Evolution. The last remaster from a dead studio "Wipeout" was exceptional yet nobody supported it. Even with a free VR inclusion. If ppl want these remasters...actually support the ones that release. Medievil same thing. Ppl cried for Demon's Souls Remake, The Last Guardian, Shenmue 3 and the sales didn't match the cries. None of these games sold as u would imagine given the internet pleas for these titles over a decade or more. DeS Remake did alright but given the circumstances it should've sold better. 92 Meta, PS5 launch exclusive, stunning visuals, and the first of the genre in an age where Eldin Ring will push 30 million units. Yes, DeS is only one platform but still.

Binarycode400d ago

I do agree mostly with what you said.

I bought killzone,2,3. Did not like 4 other then it's graphics.

I bought infamous 1,2. Second son never did it for me apart from again the graphics, so parts were good. But world felt too empty. Probably needed a PS5 to do it justice.

Bought all the Resistance and Motorstorms, those games were awesome. They 100% need a remake.

PS3 was just an awesome machine, I know it was a pain to develop for, but it had some many titles that I loved.
I really enjoyed the Bioshock series, the first 2 were best. Very good games.

As for Demon souls.and the souls series in general. They never have had massive sales. I think because they are very hard games. we are talking a million or less. I think the remaster did 1.4million.

Motorstorm pacific rift did 1.4million PS3.I think.

Hopefully some of them will come back.

-Foxtrot402d ago

I would love this

Expand on the lore

Incorporate Bioshock Infinite and Bioshock 2 plot lines

Add room rooms or maybe even an extra area

Maybe new plasmids

Give Jack a personality and add voice acting, it worked for Isaac. Jack did speak at the start of the game so adding onto that and giving him convos between Atlas or Ryan would be great

Aussiesummer402d ago

Man could you imagine what bioshock would look like in ue5 with full raytracing, phwaaarrrhh.
