In February of 2007, I wrote a story entitled “Bioshockcoming to the PS3? No. Maybe. Probably. Yes!“. Within hours, we were contacted by 2K Games who answered that question with a firm “no.” But rumors continued to persist, and in November 2007,Jim Sterling reportedthat an official moderator on the 2K forums said “There will be no PS3 version ofBioShock. It has been explained time and time again.”
And that was that. The 2007 Game of the Year, and Xbox 360 and PC exclusiveBioShockis never coming to Sony’s console. Forget about it.
Wait, no … don’t forget about it! Because according to the rumors in the latestElectronic Gaming Monthly,BioShockis coming to the PS3 later this year with the extras the other versions got post-release. And today, word comes that the latest issue of UK magazinePSM3will contain informationandscreenshots on the forthcoming version ofBioShockfor the PS3.
2K’s not talking, but I think it’s pretty safe to say PS3 owners will have the chance to dive into the underwater city of Rapture later this year. They should be excited; I hear the game is pretty good.
