According to a PSU source, Bioshock will be released for the PlayStation 3 on November 4, 2008.

Announced in late May, 2K Games finally confirmed the rumors that not only would the game be coming to the PS3, but will include "new content" and "new features."

"Since BioShock for Xbox 360 and Games for Windows won countless 2007 Game of the Year awards, we are excited to see the impact of this stellar title for the PlayStation 3 when it debuts this fall," said Christoph Hartmann, President of 2K Games.

"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."

With E3 around the corner, expect to hear more soon. However, for those of you looking forward to picking the title up, you can now look forward to a November release date. Stay tuned to PSU.com for an official statement from 2K Games.

    Sweet, this was the only 360 title I was waiting for on PS3 (well that and  Gears of War - but I doubt if that'll ever happen?).

    PS3 should now start flying.

    I knew it. I shouldn't have bought for the 360. Now its gonna be better on the ps3. If they make Gears of War and Mass Effect on the Ps3, I'm throwing my 360 away

    Yay! The only 360 game I was envious for finally has a PS3 date. Thanks again, 2K. You rock! I hoped this was going to happen, which makes my email plea to 2K all the more worthwhile.

    yawwwwnnnnn, one year too late. Dont support titles that fell for money hat payouts, aka time exclusive bs.

    What does 360 have for exclusives now? Gears of War. Mass Effect (owned by EA).

    - Sony PS3 has the best games and the best exclusives.

    Please don't skimp on the quality and game play because it's being ported!

    This game will ceraintly find an receptive audience on the ps3. A good number of people have always prayed for this to happen.And I believe more titles will follow the same trend.

    Personally i pray this happens with ninja gaiden2.From the reviews i have read, the flaws the game experienced on the 360 like poor camara and especially unwanted loading times, can be greatly improved on the ps3, using the ps3's pre installation capability and the amazing cell processor.Since i think the sales don't look that impressive, I hope Tecmo will think about releasing it on the ps3. If this game is released on the ps3 from scratch, I believe it will be better than the 360 version.
