Bioshock Could Be Headed To PS3

According to the Official PlayStation Magazine UK, Bioshock is in development for the Sony PlayStation 3 console.

The magazine states many times that the game is in development even though the thought up until now was that the game is going to be an exclusive for the Xbox 360 console.

The magazine mentions that the exclusivity of Bioshock is only a timed-exclusive for Microsoft. This means that the game will be an exclusive on the Xbox 360 but for just a short period of time. It will then be released by 2K Games on all next-generation consoles, meaning the PS3.

Does it matter? It's hardly a credible source.

I'm going to make a blog on the Xbox 360 and state I know SquareEnix are solely developing for the Xbox 360 and that the PS3 just lost FFXIII and then see how far it gets, because, you know, I'm as credible as OPM!

Xbot_Killer6980d ago

can we say the same when xbots start doing a circle jerk everytime some nimrod mentions another OMGMGS4360 rumor??

power of Green 6980d ago

PlayStation Magazine Says something like this about once a month.

fenderputty6980d ago (Edited 6980d ago )

Both articles are lame until a dev says otherwise.

BIadestarX6980d ago

Time exclusive is fair enough. Xbox 360 owners don't mind sharing a game after they already play the heck out of it. Obvlibion being ported to the PS3 didn't hurt the xbox 360 nor the gamers... share away... sharing is good!

Arkham6980d ago

Agreed. It worked for the GTA series when they finally came to the Xbox, and it will only serve to expand the popularity of good-to-great games. It's healthy for the industry.

It'd like to see more timed-exclusives on all consoles rather than third-party exclusives. Let's keep the exclusives to the first- and second-parties.

Kleptic6980d ago (Edited 6980d ago )

Totally agree...Bioshock is definitely one I want to play, but would happily wait for with all the other games coming out this fall...I would easily trade MGS4 as a timed exclusive (which I would bet money on regardless) for this...

Oblivion is a great example of how great it is when this works too...It came out later on the ps3, but didn't suck crap out of bethesda's wrong one...it was equally as great as the pc/360 version, which was great for guys like me that hadn't played it yet...FEAR failed all over the place on the ps3, but anyone that hadn't played that 2005 game by now probably wouldn't anyway...

dominusbellum6980d ago

how all the people who agree with you actually comment and all the people who disagree don't and just sit there and cower pretty sad

Devilbringer6979d ago

Oblivion was not excluesive to 360 it was all multiplattfrom. so 360 didnt share anything

bung tickler6979d ago

yes i agree as well even if it was straight up multi platform from launch i wouldnt care. i dont get why some fanboys get thier panties in a bunch when a game goes multi platform... maybe its cuz they spent $200 more for thier system, i dont know.

Then MGS could also be released on the 360 later and everyone will be happy. Sharing is good, the first time bladestar has said anything I remotely agree with and that seems well thought out. Kudos to you sir.

Bill Gates6980d ago

It's not "could be", but it "WILL be". suckassssssssss!!

Bioshock is one of my favourites franchises. I love all 3 games and have played each several times. I even have a room in my house that is loosely decorated around the theme of Bioshock (with a Lighthouse, coral models and postcards styled as though they are from both Rapture and Columbus).

And yet I am going to find it extremely difficult to get even remotely excited about any future episode in the series after all the problems this has had in its development cycle.

Leave the franchise alone. Remaster them again if you have to. Then put whatever talent you have to use on something brand new.

Furesis342d ago

Since ken levine isn't involved i'm not surprised what's going on. i'm more excited for his next game which looks like bioshock. Yet he still works under take2 and they are making bioshock 4 without him, strange situation.

toxic-inferno342d ago

Yes. Judas. Looks brilliant, but it's one of those games that seems to never have had a release date. Instead it's had release windows that keep getting pushed back.

Once it's ready, I'll be there for it though. Ken Levine is an excellent developer.

I get the feeling he dissolved Irrational Games simply so that 2k couldn't tell him what to do. It seems it will pay off, but I feel sorry for those who worked as part of Irrational before it was dissolved, who hadn't independently made a name for themselves.

ActualWhiteMan341d ago

He didn’t even want to make 2, that’s why they did it without him.

Rebel_Scum341d ago

tbh it wouldnt be a Bioshock game without development hell. They all had it.

Michiel1989341d ago

bioshock 2 was 2.5 years after 1, so much of a development hell it was......

-Foxtrot341d ago

"Remaster them again if you have to"

Well apparently they were doing a remake but that got cancelled

Relientk77342d ago

It sucks this game is in development hell because I love BioShock and would love a 4th game. I hope it turns out great, but I guess we'll see.

P_Bomb341d ago

Love Bioshock. It’s too bad what’s going on. At least we have Judas.

Yui_Suzumiya341d ago (Edited 341d ago )

It's been in development hell since 2014. This is nothing new. It saddens me because it's one of my favorite series. At this point, Judas may end up releasing first.

BABI-PANGPANG341d ago

Bioshock 4 (if it ever comes out) will probably still look and play like a Bioshock game, but without Kevin, it might miss that spark that made the originals so special. Honestly, Judas might end up feeling more like the real spiritual successor.

Remember there past attempts at game based show's i do heck i still remember that teenage resident evil trash fire.

anast712d ago

ha. I almost forgot about that.

Jin_Sakai714d ago

Might as well just cancel it.

just_looken712d ago

Unless its batwoman were they right it off

porkChop714d ago

It's 10 years too late for a BioShock film. The world of Rapture would have been perfect for a film. It's actually a good candidate for proper utilization of 3D, for increased depth rather than bullshit popping out of the screen. It could really show off the underwater city that way. But BioShock as a brand is so irrelevant these days that a film just doesn't make sense. Especially considering it would need a big budget and top notch effects to really take advantage of the IP.

gold_drake714d ago

i agree on the bigger budget. all the cgi they'd need for the background.

but i think it would work better as a show. a movie would be too short to establish the story

TheNamelessOne714d ago

Netflix greenlights anything, so that shows me very little faith in the project. Enough to just crap something out as they're, more and more, known to do.

badkolo713d ago

its where b movies go to live, its run by democrats , dont expect anything good from netflix

Knightofelemia714d ago (Edited 714d ago )

I'll laugh if it turns out to be better then the Borderlands movie
