Rumor: Big Sisters Stalk Onto BioShock 2 - Image 1


Don't ask me how or why but some people are apparently doubting - after so many press releases from 2K Games - that BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams would be heading to the PS3. 2K made a firm stand on the matter before, that the game will end up on the Xbox 360, PC, and PS3. Recent rumors, however, have muddied the waters of Rapture.

A very recent release schedule from 2K Games listed BioShock 2 with a "TBA" platform status. This has fired online speculation into thinking that the sequel may not get a PS3 release after all. A spokesperson for 2K has contacted CVG to clarify everything though: the game is "definitely coming to Sony's console," they write.

However, the interesting part here is when CVG asked whether the Xbox 360 would be getting a timed-exclusivity deal with BioShok 2, just like the one year gap between the 360 and PS3 versions of the first game. 2K has yet to respond to this query.

» Lol,

I couldn't care less if it was an Xbox 360 timed.

I'll just be playing on Killzone 2

and by the time it comes out on PS3, i bet Uncharted 2 will be out.

360 fanboys can't accept the truth that one their biggest franchises is now multiplat.

the trailer at the end of Bioshock for PS3 enough of a clue that Bioshock 2 would come to the PS3?

PS3 fanboys still in denial that their console/games have any meaning.

Of course it will, 2K Games is owned by Take2 Interactive, and Take2 Interactive's president is Bill Gates husband, of course the idiots will favor the RRoD box. Perhaps if they ever break up we will start seeing some real games come from that pile of dog turd they call a company.

You really need to chill with that hatred of yours toward microsoft.

» Bias much?

I love how all of the comments that rip on Microsoft on QJ get 5-starred immediately (until those people come on who like to kill 5-stars), and the people who don't suck Sony's (rooster) get 0-starred right off the bat.



The bias on here amazes me. You guys are worse than CNN.

» Huh...

This might just have gave me a reason to get it for the 360 for free.

It's QJ's fault that asshats (like me) exist on this site and just randomly vote everything down? Almost everything I post gets thumbed down by someone who keeps stalking me because I hurt their e-feelings or something.



flawed logic is flawed

Its been awhile since I played but isn't it called 'Rapture'?

I'll be honest. I don't really care about any of this junk. I just thought it was funny how the heading says "exlcusive". I mean, just start sounding this word out. Ex-el-coo-sive .... kinda rolls of the tongue a bit

» you make me sick,

People like you make me sick, you cant think of something relevant to say that contribute to the topic so you come in like some forum troll with pms whining... lets get something stright okay, these are message boards. people can and will have varied opinions and sometimes they will conflict with each other, and yes, sometimes people will argue and ***** at each other, but for you to honestly create a post whining about how fans of video games react to news about the very subject they came here to read up about. shows me and others that you are nothing but a forum troll, with very little intelligent input,,,



and yet you strive for something to post even though you cant think of anything .

so you resort to calling people nerds and geeks??



WTF is wrong with you? you dont go into a police station yelling pork prize!!

arent you smart enough to know that when you enter a message board dedicatedto video gaming you are goingto run into fans debating and yeah sometimes argueing

about video games..



in short, dont expect to go to water world and not get wet,,

people like you are so ignorant it's offencive....

» i remember

back in PS3s first year everything microsoft got 5 stars and everytime something good came out for ps3 instant 0 star. so either a majority of the ppl left or just started liking playstaion.



btw. i am a sony fanboy but i am not against microsoft. i like playing ahalo and gears. the only thing i get tick'd off about is when ppl say the ps3 is ***** and is too expensive. how is it too expensive. it's the same price as what x box360 was when it first came out. and it cand do more than what the xbox does right now. xbox is a good console. i just dont like it when ppl say ps3 is too expensive. i think its way too late for that remark.

How did the PS3 lose Assassins Creed....it was multiplatform from the beginning. Resident Evil has been multiplatform for forever....RE4 came out first for the Gamcube and Code Veronica for the Dreamcast. GTA has also been multiplatform for awhile, Vice city and San Andreas were released on the first X-Box....

by Mr Toasty - 2009-03-14 21:52
» erm

Assassin's Creed was announced as PS3 exclusive for a while, so technically they did lose it.



Gotta love the fanboyisms, and violent opposal to being labelled as such.



By the way Gino, you mispelled Bioshock in your last paragraph there

by Mr Toasty - 2009-03-14 21:54
» yeah

Gino needs to proofread better XD

by Silver-Tiger - 2009-03-15 01:59
» The reason is....

.....that most of the Xbox fanboy comments are just too ridiculous to take them seriously.
