BioShock Surprise Announcement & Trailer Coming

Game Head's Geoff Keighley says there is a new trailer coming and:

"In addition, the trailer debut will close with a surprise announcement by Game Head's Geoff Keighley. You won't want to miss this!"

SmokeyMcBear6107d ago

cmon don't add to the flame war.. geez.. it just said special announcement

MK_Red6107d ago

You're right. Sorry. I thought it was PS3 version after the jump since Kotaku had "Special Surprise Inside" above the title. Updated.

But what else could be the surprise announcement be?

bung tickler6107d ago

i hate announcements for announcements... cool game, lame announcement.

nasim6107d ago

a DEMO announcement is not surprising

announcing it for ps3 would get a lot of people excited than just announcing a DEMO

Omegasyde6107d ago

That is it. End of story, they will show people on TV playing the demo which will come the week following.

Don't hype this too bad people, it might not even be a demo but just a guy playing it with new footage.

Alot of hearts will be broken on Sunday.

I wonder what it is??

When is the trailer soming?

MK_Red6107d ago (Edited 6107d ago )

I think its either the PS3 version we've been hearing about or a surpise multiuplayer/online/coiop mode (Or as AznSniper said, a sweet deom). Either way, Cant wait for all of them: The trailer, the announcment and most importantly the game itself.

Xbox 360 Will6107d ago

this on PS3! Wonder if this is when they will announce it.

Xeoset6107d ago (Edited 6107d ago )

They're not, idiot. It'll be a Demo.

Douche6106d ago

Have you already been told what it is? I don't think so. Hush up and be prepared for the worst. I would like this to come to the PS3. It's either that or I fork out the money for a 360. Ha ha, I had you going there didn't I. If I ever decided on purchasing the 360, it would have to be the day of BioShock coming out. If I'm lucky, that'll leave me with about a week to play the game before my inevitable meet with The Ring Of Death. Muah ha haa!

AznSniper6107d ago (Edited 6107d ago )

PS3 version announcement or 360 demo announcement

Edit: If you disagree with me, then give me your opinion.

bung tickler6107d ago (Edited 6107d ago )

a ps3 version wouldnt realy be the right kinda of announcement, it will be something related to what is already here (pc/360) so it will prob be a demo or multiplayer info.

jmare6107d ago

It's more likely a PS3 anouncement than a Multiplayer or demo anouncement, time is money and the quickest anouncment would be "coming to PS3"

spasticjustice6107d ago

I don't really see how people can jump the gun so quickly and say it's a demo or a ps3 version. I mean those are both possiblities but couldn't it simply be something else? Nobody knows for sure so stop acting like ya do!

MK_Red6107d ago

I know its rather weird and unlikely but I can't stop thinking of how cool a co-op on Rapture could be. Perhaps if the game sells are good enough, we could see co-op in a patch/update, expansion or the sequel.

Dr Pepper6107d ago (Edited 6107d ago )

@ MK_Red

The world of Rapture is being built for a single player experience. The player is meant to feel alone and isolated (it's part of the whole "mood" of the game). I think multiplayer would greatly change this, one of the main points of the game (at least that's what the devs always talk about). Well, that's my opinion.

MK_Red6107d ago

Well spoken. Completely true. This is a true moody and atmospheric game. Personally, I always prefer singleplayer and I'm big fan of non-multi games but playing with Bioshocks great AI and echology with another friend is still hard to pass.

But I do believe that the game must be experienced the way it was intended and this could be the singleplayer experience of the decade. (Yes, I'm crazy about Bioshock)

Didn't the creator write it? It also made a fortune based on the budget so from a business standpoint it is a massive success.

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.

banger88390d 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.

FallenAngel1984390d 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_Sakai390d ago

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

IamTylerDurden1389d ago (Edited 389d 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-inferno389d 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.

IamTylerDurden1389d ago (Edited 389d 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.

neutralgamer1992389d 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-Dude388d 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.

Binarycode389d 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.

Storm23389d 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...

IamTylerDurden1389d ago (Edited 389d 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.

Binarycode387d 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.

-Foxtrot389d 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

Aussiesummer389d ago

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