Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Bioshock 3 announced!!!!

2009-2011 is a short time really... I'm waiting for Starcraft 2 since the 99...

Whoa, easy! For all we know, it could be a MMO (as there has already been shown interest in making a BioShock MMO), which would mean that I might try the trial, and even if I like it, never touch it again.
Besides, getting excited about something so far out in the future has never been good for any game. I'm not gonna be even remotely excited until we've played BioShock 2 ;)

OMG PS3 EXCLUSIVE!!!111

I wonder if it will be on any of the current consoles?

When is 2 supposed to come out? 2009?

Nope. Bioshock 2 will hit in 2009. Bioshock 3 won't be here until 2011 or (optomistically) late 2010.

 




Yeah, #2 will be released sometime in '09, either with a simultaneous PS360 launch or with a lead of a few months for the 360.  Probably 2011 for #3, otherwise it'll probably be held back for the next generation of consoles.

 



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Sequels that are released 2 years after the original seldom impress me, and often have a generic feel to them. Simply more of the same.

R6: Vegas - Vegas 2.
Ghost Recon - Ghost Recon 2.
Gears of war - Gears of War 2
Resistance - Resistance 2

And so on...

 RSV had a 1.5 year gap, which was why it was so similar
GRAW only had 1 year gap

I think 2 years is a perfectly long time, I would not want to have to wait three. Think CoD 2-4 that was a big enough change wasn't it. Surely you should wait for GeoW 2 and R2 to make your judgements on those, both will be excellent IMO, and Insomniac have a history of delivering games every year and they always make quality titles

Way too early to get excited about Bioshock 3's announcement. BioS was a great game, don't get me wrong (bought for 360 and getting again for PS3), but we haven't any details or hands-on with the second installment for it to be deemed worthy of yet another in the series. I don't know about you guys, but the first was too good to be exploited by half-assed sequels aimed solely for profit.

 Well what could be happening is that the second is being written to tie into a trilogy (kind of like ME, but that was planned as one from the start) to try and make a more continuous story



Bioshock 2 is going to be 360 time exclusive???

 who knows, I don't think they have announced platforms details



Great. They're going to whore out the BioShock franchise. Yippee.

It makes sense to create two games... The original and one that occurs during New Years Eve 1959.

After that, let it die.
