I would have bought this if Steam wasn't selling it for 15 bucks a week ago.

Ichidou

@hlfx: They actually sound fun, wish I didn't have this for the 360 already. Might have to pick it up on PS3 after all.

Omnimon

Those aren't achievements; they're "trophies."
That's not a gamer profile; it's just "profile."
This isn't Xbox LIVE; it's the "PlayStation Network."

Just admit it's a port, and release the damn thing!

boopadoo

@ZXSythe: Yeah, a lower framerate and screen tearing :(

Arleas

@Amazon_Chris:

I'd like a harder mode. I got the Brass Balls award almost entirely using the a powered up and unbalanced wrench.

This might be worth a rental in this case.

doubtful

I think I might have to pay a second visit to Rapture...

I don't think they should charge 60$ for this though. Considering what it costs on other platforms.

Demonbird

My thoughts are this; This is a game every gamer should play. I'll be fine with my 360 version (may pick the PS3 version down the road) I am just glad the PS3 people can finally play this amazing game.

DeadlyCyclone

@rapt00r: It's part of the PS3 exclusive DLC "Challenges". Basically they are seperate from the story part of the game, and make the player utilize different plasmids and such to complete the challenge.

I believe this one involves getting to a Little Sister that's on top of the ferris wheel. Could be wrong on that part...

PaperTiger201 - PSN & Live

Can't wait to pick up the PS3 version.

DigitalHero

@tslothrop: Yeah, i think that the pic is one of the "puzzle-exclusive content" level.....i dont know the rest of you , but those puzzles sound very boring to me......

hlfx

@tslothrop: Hey! somebody beat me to it.

chimp_o_death

@Killa_Charlie: Unless somebody beats me to it, I'll say that's probably one of the non-story mode challanges...maybe you remember the "save a little sister from the crazy ferris wheel gone INSANE!"...sort of a bunch of puzzles you access from a menu screen.

chimp_o_death

@rapt00r: There was some mention of additional puzzle-type levels (you use your plasmids to move items/solve puzzles/etc.) being included in the PS3 version, IIRC. Probably something from one of those levels...

tslothrop

I take it Survivor Mode is the hardest mode ever made then?

Amazon_Chris

@Killa_Charlie: @Sexy.KOT69: @Gouki4u's avatar has a severe case of Jekyll and Hyde: I don't remember that either. Does the PlayStation 3 version also have exclusive content?

rapt00r

Trophies? Fine, sure, great. Just gimmie Bioshock on my PS3 and I'm a happy camper.

Chances

@Gouki4u's avatar has a severe case of Jekyll and Hyde: It does look nice though.

Arnold Rimmer's Garden Strimmer

Wasn't the Achievement Brass Balls just beat the game with out vita chambers.

Led_Head1991

@Gouki4u's avatar has a severe case of Jekyll and Hyde: I also don't remember that. Uhm. Thing.

Dresarius

where the hell is that carousel located?

also, neat achievements.

shufly

@Sexy.KOT69,@Killa_Charlie: Something new in the PS3 Version? Maybe, I guess...

ZXSythe

Oh but the minute one of them decides to take on a Big Daddy with a super powered wrench they'll wish they had a chamber. :D

Eville1 says SKUse me a sec.

@Killa_Charlie: @Sexy.KOT69: I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't remember that thing.

As for the achievements; Thanks for playing! Why don't you try a harder difficulty!

Gouki4u's avatar has a severe case of Jekyll and Hyde

@Killa_Charlie: neither do i.. o_O

Sexy.KOT69

I don't remember a giant carousel like that in bioshock.

Killa_Charlie

I thought 360 had a similar achievement for beating the game without use of vitachambers on the hardest difficulty, unless Survivor difficulty is new.

CHunterX

Something tells me I'll be fine with my 360 version. I'm glad PS3 owners get to finally play this great game though, with trophies too!

JN64Lover

lol Just release a touched up 360/PC version for the PS3 at $29.99 or even $39.99 with Trophies and then get to work on the sequel. I am glad it's coming to my PS3, but like a lot of other PS3 owners we played it on a 360 or PC...well about a year ago. Call me a negative Nancy or whatever, but I just don't see this doing too well on the PS3. Just worries me they might be using this version to gauge interest and profitability of the sequel appearing on the PS3.

Mitch Cumstein

i see they were very creative with the trophies. :P however, that won't be the reason i play it.

s0njas0n

(PC video card w/out 3.0 shader) + (no Xbox360) = me looking forward to finally being able to play this.

Marikir

I will be glad to play the game on my PS3 but why hype the 'not too much effort in coming up with new trophies' deal. It would have been better left unsaid as the trophies are not much of a big deal. it's not like they added more levels or made some uber-effort at something for us.

Awoken

@Ichidou: Yeah, I'm going to wait until it drops to at least $30 before I pick it up for the PS3. I have enough games on my plate at the moment anyway.

ƒox

@DeadlyCyclone: I disagree. Although the world of Rapture was hauntingly beautiful, with a deep and thought-out history, the game play itself was junk. I thought the AI was bad, where they just ran straight at you (treat it like Mass Effect, and stand in a doorway/narrow hall and kill them as they come to you). And the guns were just crap.

I bought the game, played for a week, stopped it to play something else, and never had the urge to put it back in.

FATDAN

@hlfx: I agree that it doesn't sound that thrilling -- but I didn't think that Portal sounded all that great on paper either.

I'll probably pick this up at some point just so I can experience Rapture on my HDTV as opposed to my small PC monitor.

tslothrop

The carousel is a PS3 DLC exclusive, which is a puzzle level.

DukeOfPwn

I have yet to actually play this game. If I ever do get a PS3 I could buy it for that if theres going to be new stuff.

Refused

@Killa_Charlie: It's the DLC they announced. It's a level where you need to get a Little Sister in the top cart down by moving the ferris wheel with whatever electricity you can get to it, i.e. electrified bolts, electric buckshot, electric gel, and the level has very little ammo around.

TVarmy

Sounds fine. I won't be repurchasing this game, but if I were a PS3 only kind of guy, I'd be overjoyed. Truly one of my favorite single-player experiences, regardless of the often debated last leg of the game.

Anarchist_Gamer

I fear for the people who care about these trophies.

Providence

@Providence: Fear for 90% of the 360 userbase as well.

@Mitch Cumstein: A sequel and a port are two completely different things and I doubt anyone would use a port as an indication of whether a sequel would do well on a system, IMO that's just plain idiotic. Compare the two:

>Sequel to one of the best games in the last decade, brand new, just released.

>Port of one of the best games in the last decade, a year old, plenty of opportunities to play it elsewhere.

Simple comparison but still...

SynKade

@Sniper_Zegai: heh. well played.

TheIrishNinja

I've already played this on the PC but I didn't like it too much gameplay wise. The story was pretty okay but I don't think I'll be buying it again.

@Arleas: I don't get it. Have you already played the game or is there a review/preview I haven't read?

shak_0

I played Bioshock on my 20 year old Tandy, and it doesn't look nearly as good as that screenshot.

Must get this game.

P3nnst8r has returned on the Graces of Brian Ashcraft

I bet it took balls to come up with those achievements, Brass Balls if you will.

Sniper_Zegai

I might just pick this up for the PS3 even though I have already finished it on my PC. At the very least I will rent it. Fantastic game. Loved it.

homernoy

I'll buy it if its not full price. Even $50, but $60 for a game over a year old, I think not.

immikeulate

No one on my friends list have any trophies, but it's only a matter of time. By the way, I have a lot of people on my list -> For those who want to act "smart" about it.

goldwings

@Killa_Charlie:
That's.. wow, new content? Holy shit o.O
It's probobly in the non-canon extra rooms mentioned earlier. can't remember where it was mentioned about the extra challenge rooms but i know i heard something about them.

fishbonez

i have to admit... i got bored, never finished it. obviously it's just me, though, the store i brought back my copy to was like "sweet ! this will sell in the next five minutes!"

I thought the story was moving vveeerrryyy slowly, and i don't like the 'frustration' kind of plot (come here, ah, no, first you activate this random shit in order to progress in the plot). Very atmospheric, and wonderful at describing rapture, but i thought not much was happening (though i heard the ending was great). i stopped the level after the 'artist'..

and i fucking hated the plumbing.

cy-rano

Wowzers, these sure are different from "beat game on hard" and "beat on hard without vita chambers". I'd like to see a "defeat every enemy" "hack every so and so" or something to uber nuts coalitionists.

Talleh

@Killa_Charlie: This is Exclusive for Bioshock, only on PS3.

rodbox

haha - I saw this picture at work and thought 'I don't remember that' - but I couldn't comment. It appears I'm not the only one.

kosbee

The DLC for the 360 version had an extra Achievement which was to complete the game on hard without using the vita chambers. Is survival difficulty even harder or is it just hard with another name?

Mundus

I dont understand this.. I know its just a figure of speech, but if trophys can only be found on PS3, then how can they be ps3 specific?

asphix20

Since the most common complaint I've read has been "Bioshock is too easy," this gives people a chance to put up or shut up, I guess.

beeporama (brian.j.parker)

I look forward to this game immensely, but I have yet to figure out if this IS the game I am looking for to get my fix where I stand in my morals. Saint or Satan? hmm. Don't know if this game outrightly makes that decision for you, but it might clear up a few things for me. >:)

SymbolicMeaning

@Providence: As do I. Unless Survivor is just a re-named Hard.

You could probably just ignore most of the big daddies until you maxed research and weapon upgrades, though. Electric gell FTW.

CaptainConfuzion

I'm pretty sure this isn't part of the plasmid challenges. They mentioned adding a carnival room and one other room I can't remember right now. So I would assume this is part of the carnival room, also, both those achievements/trophies exist in the 360 version. They're called something else, but I just beat it and went back to try it on hardest difficulty and no vita-chambers...and it's hard...really hard...

pnkfloyd87

Yeah, the ferris wheel was in a demo at E3. They have a preview of it at game informer. Apparently, there's a little sister stuck at the top and you have to get to her.

ekrawciw

Is it still gonna have the Irony trophy?

Because even though it's ruined for me after hearing it, it's an awesome trophy.
