Bioshock will do well enough on the 360 that it won't need to go to the PS3. Resident Evil 4 did between mediocre to poorly on the GC, that's why it was ported to the PS2.

How did the PS3 lose Bioshock as a game in the first place exactly?


RE4 sold close to one and three quarter mill on GC. Tell me how that is mediocre.


Probably because the PS1 versions of RE1 and RE2 each sold over 5 million copies, RE3 sold over 3.5 million copies, hell the port of Code Veronica X for the PS2 sold over 2 million, so selling 1.65 million copies on the original Gamecube version of Resident Evil 4 might have been seen as a letdown especially considering all the press it was getting and game of the year awards.

RE4 actually done very well when you consider the sales for REmake and RE0 on the Gamecube. I see what you mean though.

Anyway, doesn't Enchanted Arms have that same logo on the cover? I think it does, even though the game is on the PS3. Personally, I am getting tired of the Bioshock discussions. it is becoming as redundant as the FFXIII and MGS4 to the 360 discussions that take place on the internet.

Until 2k announce the game, no PS3 version. That is all that matters, not that I care, not buying the game regardless.

In addition to Legend's explaination. RE4 was the most critically acclaimed main series Resident Evil Game of all time yet was the worst selling. It's not unfair to expect Capcom would want more out of it.

And as well as Bioshock is going to do on the 360 I see no reason why they would want to port it to a console that arguably would just a little more than the money back needed to develop the port in the first place (I'm sorry, everyone and their mother is already going to own it for the 360, you'll be lucky if the PS3 version sells half a million, twice of what NGS did).

I know biohazard alone has me considering getting a 360.
