Bioshock on PS3 and the Cautious Fanboy

Famous gaming webcomic Penny Arcadehas addressed the recent confirmation of Bioshock for the Playstation 3.

(I spelled that as “Biosock” at first. Mankind’s Deadliest Weapon is Festering at the Bottom of the Laundry Hamper.)

I’ve seen some pretty awesome console wars flare up over this topic, and therefore I can only smile at the guarded enthusiasm of Playstation 3 owners. There’s a sort of paranoia involved here, like Charlie Brown’s haunting fear of Lucy pulling away the football.

Then again, memories of The Orange Box port will not fade quickly.

Going back to Penny Arcade for a second, I’m glad to see that Carl the Exterminator was not devoured by the deep crow, and in fact managed to tame her. I don’t ask for much out of life either, but I think I’d banish myself to the dinosaur-populated centre of the earth if I could have a deep crow as a mount.
