BioShock PlayStation 3 officially dated, arriving October

Posted May 28, 2008 at 9:59AM by QJ Staff Listed in: PS3 Tags: PSM3, Sony, Take-Two Interactive

BioShock for the PS3 coming in October - Image 1 Rumors of a PlayStation 3 version of BioShock have been around for a long time (since 2006, even). These rumors resurfaced full force when a scan of the July cover for PSM3 was leaked. If that wasn't enough for you though, how about this: Take-Two Interactive itself has officially provided a release window.

According to a press release from T2, BioShock for the PlayStation 3 will arrive this October, along with new features and content. No word on what exactly the new features and content are, but hopefully they'll be enough to compensate for the long wait. T2's new studio, 2K Marin, is the branch handling the game's translation into the Sony console.

I got a 360 befor I got a PS3, but never got around to getting this game for the 360. I am glad I wiated. With the added content coming out, I will be getting this game for the PS3.

# That's right... — RexNox 2008-05-28 06:15

we bad...we bad...

# never played it.. — Apeaggedon 2008-05-28 06:15

i never looked into it becouse its non multiplayer modes and only single player,and im all about multiplayer.

dont really know if ill buy the game.. but who knows... i love 2k games.

# sweet. — ShadeyProphet 2008-05-28 09:25

I have high hopes for bioshock ps3. I really hope the ps3 version is as solid and bug free as the 360 one. this is one of my worrys. stability issues between console versions arent unheard of :/

*Heres hoping for the best :)

Great game. I can't wait for the second game to be announced. Also there is a Bioshock movie coming in late 2009!

# ah.. — Eclipze_ 2008-05-28 12:01

idk. I tried out the PC demo for this game and it was kinda weird in my opinion. Don't really like the old guns and power-up stuff. The graphics on the water was crazy but I don't know about gameplay.

# Well... — Shatterdome 2008-05-28 19:53

Thing is who knows if it will run and look as good as the 360 version.....ntm that you can get the 360 version for $30-40 bux......

The extra content is most likely just all the downloadable content that the 360 had.....worth $10.......so even if you paid for that on the 360 it'd still be cheaper right now....and you could play it right now...

Still, good for the people who have no 360, and it will be interesting if the PS3 pulls it off as well, or perhaps better (which I doubt as the water effects use pixel shaders and it's a fact that 360 has almost double the pixel shader pipelines as PS3)

I can't take you seriously with all your lying fanboyisms.

# Actually.. — kimdrummel 2008-05-28 23:07

...i didn't think that this game was bery good. Pretty boring actually.

# well.... — marquisreinald 2008-05-29 00:16

....the real question is, will this come with a collectors edition like the 360, which came with that awesome Big Daddy figurine.

# I'm like all of you — scarface_tha_second 2008-05-29 03:18

I am hoping that the transition between 360 to PS3 doesn't ruin it. Hopefully it looks just as good and has extra content; cause if its just going to have the content and look *****ty, no thank you.

I wonder if the hardcore fan boys of the 360 are pissed and those of the PS3 think this is a decisive blow.

# Hey Chucking — Thinker 2008-05-29 03:55

This is what I imagine Shatterdome must have been thinking when he wrote his post:

"OMG one of the most best games on the 360 is coming out on the PS3! How could they! Have to discourage ppl from buying the PS3 game any way I can! Let me try making up some assumptions (lies) and see if any will stick!"

Shatterdome: Do you really imagine anyone takes you seriously?

# ... — 93pauott 2008-05-29 04:26

seriously?!?

i can haz linkzors?

# sweetness — Bigbob6383 2008-05-29 08:47

I have the game for PC and it's incredible. Very, very fun.

It really sucked me into the storyline and gameplay and so I always have to make sure i have plenty of hours of free time before i start playing

I hope the version on PS3 (I haven't checked out the 360 version) can pull me into it the same way (maybe on a huge HDTV?) and also, still feel like a great, original game even though it'll already have been out for over a year.

Anyhow, I can't wait for the release!

# Old game now. — skidz 2008-05-29 11:40

I doubt it, the game is a year old. Most people that played it have already moved on.

# Did you ever.. — KakaFace 2008-05-29 13:59

I had it on the 360. Loved it. Did you ever play the game with the frame rate unlocked? It looked amazing as long as there wasn't too much action going on. I hope the frame rate is better on the PS3 version w/o slowing down. Way excited!

# nice — na2rul 2008-05-30 13:39

its worth it. theres way too many MP shooters out the anyway.

i missed dedicated singleplayer games
