BioShock PS3 to have Home integration?

BioShock - Image 1We received a pretty intriguing tip earlier that might amuse some of you. UK site Game.co has the cover art for the PlayStation 3 version of 2K Games' BioShock and it has an interesting logo visible at the bottom part.

The logo belongs to none other than long-awaited PS3 virtual world PlayStation Home. While it's still unclear what this means, tipster J has some ideas. He writes:

If you look at the box art, it clearly has the Home logo. This not only suggests that BioShock will have Home integration, but it also suggests that Home- be that the beta version or full- will be out by 1st October, which is the date currently listed for when BioShock comes out

.
We must say that's a pretty reasonable way of looking at it. We tried looking for the same cover art in other major game retailers, but we didn't find any other site that has it. We'll try to dig deeper to shed some light into this one.

Thanks to J for the heads up!

i wont be interested in this sort of news until home is actually released. it only makes me upset and disappointed that home isn't out yet.

Why read this or even post if your not interested? Damn people don't get what they want and they start whining about it.. Home will come when its ready and not a minute sooner. Theres no point in being upset or disappointed with something you can't change.

What? The company is called "Game" and the website is www.game.co.uk.



Why are you missing the .uk?

» Yep

He's right, QJ it's a retailer in the UK, called Game. The website is Game.co.uk, hell your url is right, why it is missing the UK bit?

» hmm..

this is getting annoying... waiting for home... i got my ps3 3 months ago and thought home came out a long time ago.. since my friends kept complaining about it not being released.. so i think i can wait until october... although i hope that it will be the final fixed date... would be pretty surprising if home came with firmware 2.40

pretty sure that's fan made.

pretty sure that Game- a reputable online and highstreet Gamestore- would not put up fan made box arts to advertise their products.

» Well..

Another pointless QJ post, you should know by now that box art doesn't mean ***** until it's been confirmed by the publisher of the game, and seeing as there are more than 3 months before this game is released, i wouldn't bet on "GAME" of all people to have box art exclusivity. Just look at the box art speculation for GTA IV

That's why it's listed under Rumors, man.

Coz I wrote "UK site Game.co" and having the .uk extension would make it redundant coz the word "UK" was already written.

by DigiTalDeaD - 2008-06-08 12:36
» Ah yes

I don't really pay attention to anything but the content of the post, maybe the "Listed In" part should be bigger, or maybe i should just pay more attention :-p

would be the only way I would buy Bioshock for 3.

» What everyone seems to be missing is

That if it's going to have Home integration then that more than likely means that it will have multiplayer, something the 360 and PC versions don't have. Why else would it have Home functionality if not for that? Think about it!!!
