Mass Effect 2 Secrets Revealed
11 hours 2 mins ago
After months of rumors, it has been confirmed that the game will be out on the PS3. But what could make it better? Exclusive content can. The game will come with content that the 360 version did not. And also the game will be integrated with Home.
Recently several magazine outlets have reported news in their latest issues regarding Bioshock making its way onto the PS3. Now its been confirmed by 2K games themselves on this news.
2K games have confirmed the release of Bioshock onto the PS3, on October 2008 this holiday season. 2K games also confirms the development of this title have been in the works, which sort of goes against what Ken Levines past statement, that they have no plans of brining Bioshock to the PS3. I guess that goes to show you what you can take the studios word at.
I reported the breaking news last Thursday, and now I have more tasty news bits for you to gobble up. According to Kotaku Christopher Hartmann president of 2K games have recently stated:
Over the coming months we look forward to revealing the new features and content that will make this a must-have game for its new audience, as well as for those who enjoyed it on the other platforms.
EGM also reported that Sony and Bioshock are working on extending and augmenting the game as well.
According to what Hartmann is saying, this addition of content has to be huge enough to entice Xbox 360 owners to justify another purchase of Bioshock for the PS3. Which means it probably wont be just a few additional measly Plasmids.
The exclusive content have been speculated as a huge addition of levels to the PS3 version of the game, as well as additional plasmids and weapons. There is also speculation Bioshock will have extensive PSN Home integration as well.
All of these are speculation at the moment, but it must be something big that requires 2K developers to work with Sony on the new content addition.
Addition of new levels along with Home integration does sound plausible considering past PS3 titles such as Uncharted Drakes Fortune is speculated to be creating a complete 2D sidescroller much like Bionic Commando Rearmed to accompany Home integration. Ratchet & Clank has also been speculated to be creating episodic content (new levels) to add to Ratchet & Clank: Future Tools of Destruction as part of Home integration.
Stay tuned for more news in the coming months as more tid-bits should be leaking out onto the Internet.

There's still nothing about this on 2K's website about a PS3 release. You think there would be by now.
Fingers crossed there is a PS3 version with extra content but a little bit of doubt is starting to creep in.
And go ahead and thumb me down again.
edit: Its confirmed who cares if it hasn't been updated yet, its only been 3 days since we got the news.
And lol @ "they could be busy not having time to update it". The people who update the website are the people who weren't good enough to get a job making games.
btw are you trying to become the new Kokoro, Kevan26, GTA Legend and Snowball28 rolled into one package?

edit: Whoops. I thumbed you down instead of up by accident. =/

Thought that was funny. It's like: oh no you don't get a couple of stupid plasmids... you get those and a new MAP!"
I imagine it'll get all the 360 version got, PLUS some additional stuff...
I'd hope it is additional levels, and maybe some cool plasmids. Perhaps the new (speculative) plasmids would be necessary in the new (speculative) map area....
