BioShock Vita in 'paper design stage'

If thats the case, I will be buying a Vita, which is exciting but not until this game comes out.

This game is one of the reasons I'll be buying a Vita. Can't wait to get Infinite on PS3 as it is, and we'll be waiting even longer for this Vita installment.

damn I want a Vita!!! Has a Ratchet and Clank game been announced? ME WANTS!

From what I've seen with outsourcing development of games in a franchise, in the majority of cases the quality (and critical reception) of the games don't really match those of its original developers.

However, that doesn't mean that they can't make solid additions to a franchise. But obviously QC should be priority.

This is the first non-Sony game that will make me buy a Vita after Christmas. Rock on, Irrational! Rock on!

After the PSP managed to maintain a fairly lackluster library (i said fairly, there were a few good titles) I can't seem to get all boned up for the Vita..

Seems like the PSV is getting some good games. I'm more interested in original IPs however.

Cool beans. Looks like the PSV is the go to choice for mobile hardcore gaming.

another reason why i should buy psv

PSV gonna be a blast!!! Uncharted+Killzone+Resistance+Bioshock OMG

@gamepunk86 Because the name helps to sell the game look at final fantasy the games have similarities but each one is different enough that some will love it and some won't I would never have bought FF13 without the FF name on it and I wouldn't be as F***** off at square if it hadnt had FF on it Infinite has different ideas but it's still bioshock at heart

I'm going to suspect the PSV version will be more action paced than the console versions. With a lot of Bioshock being about the atmosphere, I think a more ambient game would be tougher to replicate on a handheld experience.

hope it's still first person and beautiful.

i'm all for more bioshock but since its supposed to be entirely different why use the term bioshock? even with infinite they could have changed the name since its totally independent. maybe im missing something? is there a connection to the first two?

I was expecting a port of some sort, but I'm very pleased to hear that it's going to be a original game :)

Speaking of which... http://paperkraft.blogspot.com/2008/10/bioshock-papercraft-big-daddy.html

"Levine said that Irrational is wary about handing control of its IP off to someone else. ' Say, for example, Obsidian Games.

Sounds good to me, I'm game :3

I could for sure understand the bioshock team choosing Vita for the go-to portable..while I am not usually a graphics-wh0re like many I think that (at least with fps's) some titles like bioshock need premiere graphics to be their best,does that mean I think that the 3ds shouldn't/won't have any fps's? No..but I do agree with Bioshock team this time.

This will be the reason I buy a Vita.

A little disappointing, but I still can't wait to see what they do.

Sounds like good news to me.

Meanwhile, my body is ready for BioShock Infinite.

Maybe irrational is taking a "wait and see" approach re: Vita's success. Crossing my fingers.

Sounds like BioShock on Vita will be an entirely different story in an entirely different setting, akin to how BioShock Infinite is entirely different from the first two BioShock games. Too bad it won't be available for at least two years, if not more.
