Spong Writes: "Well, it's confirmed - despite howls of derision from fanboys of another caste - PlayStation 3 owners will indeed be getting their hands on the critically acclaimed sub-aqua, scary little girl outing that is 2k Games' BioShock."
2K Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), announced today that BioShock®, the "genetically enhanced" story-driven action game, is in development for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system at 2K Marin. The PLAYSTATION 3 system title will be released in October 2008 with new features and content that heighten the award-winning experience.
ScrawlFX writes: "Well, the July 2008 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly has hit subscribers meaning we have information from the BioShock preview for the PLAYSTATION 3 version. Lets do a breakdown.
Did you hear? BioShock is coming to the PlayStation 3. We're totally 100% sure of it, because the announcement made not only the cover of PSM3 magazine, but local favorite EGM as well. BioShock is featured prominently-but not as prominently as Gears of War 2-in the mag's July issue and helps to explain why PSM3 said it's "better on PS3."
From CVG: The next issue of UK PlayStation mag PSM3 promises a lengthy preview of the PS3 version along with a depth charge of screenshots.
In what appears to be the first real confirmation of the wonderful Bioshock coming to PS3, Swedish videogame mag GameReactor claims to have the first images in the next issue, due June 12th.
talkplaystation.com writes about how BioShock will come to the PS3 along with BioShock 2.
Torrence Davis of The Bitbag writes, "I just figured I'd look into the rumor that Bioshock is coming out for the PS3 this Summer. I thought this rumor was preposterous as it was stated before that Bioshock would be a 360 exclusive."
Reports state that Bioshock is finally set to hit the Sony PS3 this coming September.
It's been long rumored that Bioshock would eventually make the leap from the Xbox 360 to the PS3. After all, 2K Boston's critically acclaimed title moved from the console to the PC, and a code snippet found in configuration files for that port last year listed PS3 settings. Now, according to the upcoming issue of EGM, the move to Sony's system could be coming this fall.
