well it really was a timed exclusive 2k were making it for ps3 too, but then extra content for 360 from the unfinished ps3 version, and look forward to the entire series.

Yeah, the 2K reps seemed to always shoot down any mention of Bioshock and PS3 in the same sentence. But luckily, I'll be able to play the game by the end of this year(buying either a 360 or PC)

Didn't Ken Levine, the guy in charge of Irrational Games, say that it would never come to the PS3 a couple of weeks ago?

PS3 low ram debacle makes it unlikelyit could run Bioshock anyway so its a moot point. But yes, Mr. Levine said that Microsoft had secured publishing rights for the 360.

If history has shown anything, it's that exclusivity agreements can be readily flushed down the toilet whenever the developer feels like it.

Microsoft does indeed have a very different strategy in that regard, but it made sense for what they were trying to accomplish. As new comers to the game back in 2001, the only way which the Xbox could have gotten a foot in the door was through the purchasing of key developers with IP that would target the demograph Microsoft was after.

Sony, on the other hand, had nothing to lose. With the PS2 numbers, developers could easily publish on that console alone and still have a massive installed user base to sell product to. Now, of course, that situation has greatly changed, and even the whole idea of exclusivity outside of 1st and direct 2nd party titles is falling out of favour. Why, as a 3rd party developer, target only a third of the market place when you could easily get it all?
