Rumor: BioWare working on a PS3 title?

Just speculation. Move along - Image 1BioWare CEO Ray Muzyka has gotten our attention again, with this most interesting bit of speculation. According to gamers who attended the Video Games Live concert in Edmonton, Canada, Ray had been openly stating that the company was developing something for the PS3.

And being the inquisitive souls we are, we couldn't help but ask: What exactly is in the works? For one, we could be looking at a console port for an MMORPG - the Xbox 360 had that in Age of Conan. Or better yet, could the be planning on a PS3 port of the much talked about (and gender-confused) Mass Effect title slated for a 360 launch? Best yet, could they be cooking up an IP built to the console's specs?

The good news is that BioWare has yet to deny the rumors (more than we can say for some others), with the bad news being they have yet to confirm it either. If anything, the fact that Ray was openly discussing this in a high-profile event means one thing - expect more info to be released. Hope to see you when that happens.

» I do hope Bioware is making a PS3 game.

I just do not think it will be Mass Effect being that Microsoft is paying for the bill on that game. So it could be another game. I hope it is this way I can get Mass Effect on my 360 and the other game on my PS3.

it's probably not Mass Effect (unfortunate for PS3 owners) as MS is publishing it. However, any game by BioWare will be a great addition to the PS3 library. They could bring those KotOR games to the PS3 with updated improvements or create a totally new IP for the system.

It won't be KoToR and it won't be Mass Effect (it says right on the cover art "Only On Xbox 360" at the top, duh). In fact, we probably wont get any of the good games the 360 has any time soon, or at all for that matter. But thats ok because we still have MGS4!!! and umm...



Well, I'm sure theres more games but whatever...

Well Im not interested in Xbox-like titles anyway, The PS3 seems to have enough of those as it is (look at the current game library. Not much of it screams "PlayStation" right now) so i'm hoping its something else.

I thought this was already announced. I'm pretty sure this will be true.

» works both ways though

@CT,

Oh Dear looks like you will have to go on talking about Metal Gear solid and F1 then dosent it (Why mention 360 owners its not their fault its not coming to PS3) ,there is plenty of titles for the March PS2 release though just that hardly are original,a lot are just arcade downloads and the rest do not look very good.

» whoops
