2K refuses to rule out BioShock on PS3

2K has today refused to rule out the possibility of BioShock coming to the PS3.

Earlier this week the internet exploded when eagle-eyed forum posters noticed that 2K Boston, previously Irrational Games, was advertising for programmers with Unreal Engine 3 and PS3 experience on its website.

Today a spokesperson for 2K Games told VideoGamer.com that the publisher has "nothing to announce at this time", which isn't exactly a denial, but is no-where near a confirmation either.

Unless Microsoft have a contract with 2K to keep the game exclusive I don't see any reason why 2K wouldn't want to make the game multiplatform to make more money.

decapitator5948d ago

They do. they had a timed exclusive contract for the game and it would seem that the due time is almost up.

solidt125947d ago

So in other words 2k is playing the silence game until there exclusive contract is up.

poos35947d ago

WHAT THE Hell was that horrible and atrocious attempt at formulating a sentence. and who was that retarded teacher you had in elementary school that tried to teach you? that was a debacle of an article. who ever taught you how to write, type and amalgamate a sentence needs to be shot in the head. dude you fire off at the mouth on nonsense way too much, but i guess it cant be helped with the deranged fankids like you on this site.

but i guess your xbox live that you paid 50 bucks a year for just aint working, otherwise you'd be online lagging and lagging. dude get a freaking life and please go back to school and learn how to properly formulate and articulate a sentence, trying to decipher that slab of garbage was just a headache...

oh and just so i dont put myself through such a horrid experience of seeing and trying to read that trash you just spewed(I dont even know why i tried) I'm chaining your none writing ass to my once again ever growing ignore list.

good riddance

Garbage 360 is starting to be overtaken by ps3 since it's a very limited system with lack of decent hardware, with added RROD of course their exclusives will come to the ps3 since they will be done much better because it is more capable of doing so, I feel sorry for the 360 fans buying the system because it was out a year earlier, biggest blunder for those who even brought a HD-dvd add on, microsoft will bring out a new console in 2-3 years and all the blind xbots will buy that because they are stupid douchbags who don't know what superior hardware is

LSDARBY5948d ago

I hope it does come to PS3, but seeing as there advertising for jobs now. It wont come for atleast another year.

Amnesiac5948d ago

who cares Bioshock sucked anyways...

orly? I have to fight a big daddy with no health/weapons again?!?!? COOL!

NOT.

mighty_douche5948d ago

Sounds to me like YOU sucked, not Bioshock!

CRIMS0N_W0LF5948d ago

Acatually.

Bioshock was good. Atmosphere was good but the gameplay is too repetitive after some time.

Amnesiac5948d ago

Yeah, you're right, I sucked along with 1000's of other people who have said that Bioshock is all graphics and no gameplay.

mighty_douche5948d ago

so i guess the other 1,000,000+ are wrong?

just a difference of opinion i guess.

Amnesiac5947d ago

After all, Bioshock did have A LOT of competition when it came out.

Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell Of Ar Ciel Retro Review – Love Conquers All

Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.

Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.

That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.

Knightofelemia1d 8h ago

Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.

TheColbertinator1d 7h ago

I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.

Used to own all these quirky JRPG on ps3 good times. Wish I would have kept them all

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

ChasterMies2d ago

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken2d ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing693d ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker3d ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing693d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt2d ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken2d ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.
