It has been reported that UK's Official PlayStation Magazine will be featuring a new development for 2K's Bioshock! game, previously announced to be a 360 exclusive. According to OPM's March 2007 issue, 2K Games recently announced that Bioshock's exclusivity was only an initial announcement, and that it may be heading for the other next-gen consoles. See the images below to see what we mean - specifically the one on the lower right:

For now, we invite everybody to keep this rumor watered down, as we don't have any confirmation on this snippet. Besides, with the previous cross-platform rumors that have been sprouting up, we don't want to get anybody's hopes up...just yet.

Buy: [Bioshock (Xbox 360)]
Buy: [Bioshock (PC)]

» Would be awsome but...

Its already been acknowledged by the developer that OPM got this info from an article before Microsoft bought the game out.

» yes~~ lets

lets keep this watered down because its MS rumored to lose an exclusive not Sony.



Anything about Sony losing an exclusive..... lets blow it out of proportion.

It's not a MS published game, and I think this time around 99% of non first-party games will be going to the other consoles at some point, even if they are exclusive for 6 months or however long.



Main fact is games cost like 5 times more to develop this gen, and companies are going to want to recoup their losses as much as possible...

» ahhh...

I would believe this if they didn't say it was also going to the Wii. I don't really know what kind of build they could make of this game for the Wii unless it's a totally different game altogether.



But, "cool" if it's true! Looks fun.

so I don't really care for Bioshock. It would be nice for PS3 owners to have Mass Effect. If not, I'll still enjoy it on my 360 but it would be nice for non-360 owners to own.

you console owners should be happy your getting this game at all because it was a PC exclusive for over a year.

» It will

come to the PS3, Im almost sure about that. 2K is the publisher and they are PS3 friendly. Maybe MS bought some kind of temporary exclusivity but that is not a problem probably when I get my PS3 Bioshock will be out (and other sensational games as Heavenly Sword :).

» numbers

1 xbox360 = a next gen console.

2 xbox360's = next gen consoles.

the plural in the last screenshot doesn't really mean anything.

» look what mag it was in I mean come on!!!

2K Games confirmed that BioShock, a first person shooter that will revolutionize the genre and forever change the expectations of gamers, will be released exclusively on Xbox 360 and Microsoft Window.

» This has allready been debunked

This rumor has allready been debunked. And this is not the first time a playstation mag has tried to spread rumors. Its still x360 and pc exclusive. QJ should update the blog, becasue this has been confirmed as false by the developer.
