Bioshock Coming To PS3 This September?

It's been long rumored that Bioshock would eventually make the leap from the Xbox 360 to the PS3. After all, 2K Boston's critically acclaimed title moved from the console to the PC, and a code snippet found in configuration files for that port last year listed PS3 settings. Now, according to the upcoming issue of EGM, the move to Sony's system could be coming this fall.

I will buy it on the ps3 if it comes but i have to see what other games are up against it.

I won't buy a xbox for it tho. My pc can't handle Bioshock.

Ps3 is now looking like a good choice for everyone.

Of course it is coming to the PS3. All of us already knew that. Any AAA game on the 360 could achieve so much more with blu ray and the cell on the PS3. It's funny how the 360 already lacks exclusives this year and is now losing its best old ones to the PS3. But come on everyone, we all know the PS3 is dominant.

This was already debunked last year in this story.

http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-...

I've also included a post from the same story, when you were posting as larry007

"OFCOURSE this means it is coming to PS3
had it been exclusive then DEVS would have said X360 and PC exclusive right away.

Why wouldnt TAKE 2 bring this on more POWERFUL PS3???

just like OBLIVION this would be coming to ps3 as well

@airforcex

PS3 is outselling the x360 all around the world NOW

It outsold x360 in JULY

and has been consistently outselling x360 ever since its launch in EU and JAPAN

x360 is the least selling console in the world

except NA for the last 2 weeks.

in EU and JAPAN ps3 murders x360

www.vgcharts.org"

Do you know what has changed since then?

NOTHING

You are still an idiot and Bioshock is not coming to the PS3.

Going on comments from this board in the past no ps3 fan likes bioshock so no-one will buy it, and when the rumours of mgs4 going to 360 came out they said why would anyone buy a game thats been out for a year and the story you'll already know.

Yet now, a different tune.

Fickle

Edit:

Hello doodle, your 14 day ban up?
Now the deal was if just 1 more 360 was sold after march 28th you would leave forever and if none were sold i would. Well it outsold the ps3 in march so you shouldn't be here

@ Gaystation

Your name in itself should be reported but apart from that.

Why wouldn't they bring it to the PS3... The gaming industry is about making money bro... It makes sense with the PS3 attach rate now that its a good way to make money considering they don't have to do much and its a guarantee they will make their money's worth....

If I were a business owner i would do it and it's not like it will effect the 360 anymore with how long its been out. I already own it on my 360 so no real need to rebuy...

Once again, the PS3 version will be superior. The DLC content will be included and the graphics will be better than the 360/PC.

Is kind of pointless. Obviously if the game is released a year later it will obviously be better than the 360 version.

How the hell could MGS go to Xbox? The xbox dvd discs aren't going to be good enough to handle the next GTA, how are they going to handle the 50gbs of MGS?

Maybe Konami will port the psp MGS to xbox hahaha

You can genuienly keep it. Why do developers, or more to the point publishers waste their time porting and movign IP's around.?

I do not want this overrated FPS....

I would however love the porting team to be asked to make a completely new game. And I am sure they'd also like that freedom, and it would amke them more enthusiatic.

1.19 - Haha I kind of agree
I played the demo on my roomate's 360 and watched him beat the whole game and I thought it was good not great. I'm just not into games that dont have multiplayer cause then there isn't any replay value and I'm paying 60 bucks! The thing that I did like about the game was the atmosphere, that was amazing. If a sequel came out I would buy that though.

I played it on the 360, and even though I don't have a PS3, I'd love to see an uncompressed version on the PS3.

I'm not against games being multiplatform, in fact I don't give a rats ass about exclusivity, but in my mind, the way to make good multi plat games is to release them optimized on one system, and then rebuild them for the specs of the other.

Seeing how well Bioshock and Gears were ported over to PC, I'd hope for a similar port on the PS3 for both.

As is every PS3 game, my friend. It's not like we sit there with a dev kit and a keyboard and compile/cook on the SPUs...

...game development is done on a p.c. Dev kits are also _very_ expensive...so many junior developers/interns and the like don't even get one.

Development on all consoles, WII/PS3/360 pretty much follows the exact same process. Please shut your damn fanboy mouth and let those of us who actually know what we are doing make the games.

I would be really surprised if Bioshock doesn't come out for the PS3 at some point, especially since the sequel seems to be coming for the 360, PS3, and even the Wii for some strange reason.

it was a huge success on 360 so it would only make sense that if given the opportunity they would put it on the ps3 (if microsoft doesnt throw $XXX million to keep it away from the ps3), get as much money out of a good game, im all for that, what im against is companies like ubisoft recycling games, calling them new and charging 60 bucks--- vegas 2---, but i would love to see bioshock on ps3, if ported properly i would drop 60 bucks on it, as for rainbow vegas 3--no chance

Yep, but this is a pretty viable rumor, especially considering the fact that MS may have signed a one year exclusivity deal (which hypothetically would expire in August, making the September release date feasible). Not to mention the fact that 2K could really use the money, and what better way then to port one of your old best sellers to a console that has a steadily growing install base?

7 - Yeah, a lot of 360 exclusive are going PS3
Mass Effect 2 is another game coming to PS3. There are even rumors that Gears Of War 3 will be a PS3 game seeing as how Epic only signed a 2 game deal with MS.

I think everybody should play BIOSHOCK. For me this was the best 360 game i have ever played. The story is original and the environment in the game is unique.

Kind of late and kind of going against some MAJOR competition (like Sony's own Resistance 2 and Ubi's FarCry 2 and Bethesda's Fallout 3). So unless this port includes something to justify paying $60 for a one year old port (superior visuals + fleshed out story + good endings) then this won't be worth it.

I think they should release it at a price point of $40

I dont see what they could possibly add to the game to make it more justifiable other than making it rather cheap..since it's a very Linear game " yes it has different endings but the gameplay is the same each play through"...and it has no MP...

They may and if they do, I may buy it. But, the fact that the game is one year old and that there are tons of shooters coming out this fall makes it hard for me to even consider buying a possible Bioshock PS3 version.

ok fair enough point...but it's a great game that alot of PS3 owners haven't played and adding it to the PS3's catalog wouldn't do ne harm atleast it's there so you can buy it ne time...
