Surfer Girl: Bioshock not coming to PS3, Fatal Interia EX and new Indinia Jones release date?

Silver Mirror | April 28, 2008 | News | Playstation 3 XBOX 360 Company 
Surfer Girl, the extremely reliable source which always seems to know what's happening in the game industry has released her latest batch of info. Among her tidbits is news that a new Fatal Interia game is in the works, that Bioshock is not coming to PS3, that Luxoflux is working on the game tie in with Transformers 2 and that the Indiana Jones game will be released in roughly the same time frame as the DVD release of latest film.
1) Luxoflux is the developer of next year's tie-in for Michael Bay's avant-garde indie film Transformers 2, which is based on Still Life with Woodpecker by Tom Robbins. Wouldn't it be ironic if a version of this was Robomodo's project with Activision (unlikely, but they do have an awesome logo with a robot)?
2) Koei Canada's next PS360 (the release for both platforms will be simultaneous this time) title is another racing game. Fatal Inertia EX is coming very soon and is "vastly improved" (hyperbole, I'm sure) from the original release.
3) Contrary to what the EGM section of gossip that was definitely told to them by insiders and that totally was not taken from the buffet of blogs including this one and a smorgasbord of message boards, BioShock is still not coming to PS3 nor is there plans for a PS3 version of its sequel (extremely unlikely, as one in Redmond says they were only joking when they said they were joking that Microsoft paid for exclusivity rights and one in the Bay Area says the amount work it would take to develop a PS3 version is a "distraction" that would put too much stress on an already brief, crunch-filled development cycle).
4) Even though Sega Superstars Tennis is not doing particularly well, Sumo Digital is working away on "a new entry in a venerable Sega sports franchise that draws upon the team's previously-established expertise."
5) Loose Cannon Studios', a Kirkland-based studio founded last year primarily consisting of ex-Sucker Punch folk that were the creative force behind the Sly Cooper series, debut title is "the most hilarious thing to ever come from King County" and features "mesmerizing art direction." Color me interested even though I can't recall anything real hilarious springing out of King County, so this may just the interactive equivalent of New Love, American Style.
6) The release for A2M's Indy game is currently scheduled to coincide with the Crystal Skull home video release.

    No offense to her, but i'll wait til I hear it from the Bioshock team before believing it. She could have heard a rumor. Its just i like to hear it from their mouths.

    I mean its no coincidence that they(bioshock devs) was asking for PS3 Developers for something. It could be bioshock or another game. So im still iffy on this article.

      Considering how many times you said that Bioshock was "nothing special" I'm surprised you care.

      Indeed because that whole unable to comment thing is so credible in this industry as a tip-off to future releases. How's that Blu-Ray 1TB Xbox 360 with brain scanning work for you? I hear there's another SKU they're unable to comment on so you better save up.

        Um im sorry but what are you talking about?

        @Donnelly i already told LMC why i care perhaps you need to read the comment i made in a similar article about this.

        I don't care personally, what i do like to see is PS3 users who hasn't played this game to experience it. I don't understand why you and LMC constantly bring up that argument.

          Your silly "I'm waiting for them to tell me that it's not coming to the PS3 despite it already not existing on the console and them pursuing other IP's and considering taking future projects multi-platform." It goes along well with the previously posted article on GG about people going on about how when asked a response of no comment made way for fan dreams of the game being ported yet again. It's like people are dedicated to following the rumor that just wont die.

      she is some girl who has a website where she post a lot of video game rumors. The reason why a lot of people listen to her and why she is becoming more populer is because a lot of her rumors come true and she says she gets inside info.
