BioShock's PS3 'challenge room' DLC coming Nov. 20

by Alexander Sliwinski { Oct 19th 2008 at 1:30PM }

Dragging information release out like it's promoting Super Smash Bros Brawl, 2K announced that the add-on content featuring challenge rooms for PS3's BioShock will be available on Nov. 20. No further details about the contents nor price were given.

We first learned about the "exclusive" downloadable content back at E3, along with seeing one of the levels featuring a Little Sister trapped atop a Ferris wheel, but have seen very little since. What we do know is that the content should feature arena-style puzzle levels set in Rapture.

Less Peter, Moore...Moorio. Yeah, that'll work.

@Psalm

You seem to hate everything no matter what, so what's it matter?

Psalm Bowser @ Oct 19th 2008 2:35PM

I love many games, they just happen to be good and interesting.

Tiptup300 @ Oct 19th 2008 2:38PM

Ha, the only handheld that will count as a games machine is the pandora.

I believe this is what you are looking for.

haha handhelds, yea right

Shame it's for PS3, sounds like it could be a bit of fun. Really not that big of a deal, though.

Hint: Developers, SDK please?!?!

Levi @ Oct 19th 2008 2:24PM

How about "shame it's not for the platform I have the game on," instead of "shame it's on PS3"

I dunno if you meant it that way, but it irks me when I hear people putting down the PS3 for no good reason

KeenCommander @ Oct 19th 2008 2:32PM

Sorry, Levi - I meant the same thing. It wasn't against PS3, which AFAIK the game runs perfectly on, just that - well - I don't have one...and wouldn't get another copy of the game if I did, honestly (I played the PC version, if the SDK comment didn't make that obvious enough).

Levi @ Oct 19th 2008 3:37PM

cool. Yeah I figured you had the pc version. Fanboys just piss me off >.<

An sdk would be cool- I soul be interested in seeng what mods people would come up with for Bioshock.

"It wasn't against PS3, which AFAIK the game runs perfectly on"

Sow how much you knows ;)

Bioshock on PS3 looks like sh**, and works(animation) like sh**

How it looks:

@anonim1979,

Great post! You always back up what you say and it's appreciated.

SHABBA!

@serpiente

I really wish Bioshock looked like that.

It seems to me that the PS3 looks a bit more blurry in all the pics - I'm guessing that it's rendered at a lower resolution?

Gamerist @ Oct 19th 2008 4:35PM

This is exciting news. Bioshock is one of my favorite games of the last few years. I have the Xbox 360 version, and now I have a reason to get the PS3 version.

(I have both platforms, and they're both great...along with the Wii and PSP... that way I have all the bases covered.)

Replica23 @ Oct 19th 2008 5:47PM

Selling a 14 month old game at full price should warrant the inclusion of additional content, for free, on disc. Especially when the other versions have been heavily discounted. This just kind of seems like a cash grab to me. Want to bet in January they'll announce a special edition for 360/PC that includes the PS3 DLC?
