Take-Two Bringing 'BioShock' to PS3

Associated Press

NEW YORK (AP) - Video game company Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. said Wednesday its critically acclaimed first-person shooter, "BioShock," is now in development for Sony Corp.'s PlayStation 3 and will be released in October with new features and content.

The game is set in an undersea world called Rapture, dreamed up as a would-be Utopia but where genetic engineering has gone terribly wrong.

"BioShock," which is also being made into a movie, was previously only available for Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox 360 and Windows.

Shares of New York-based Take-Two fell 29 cents to $26.88 in afternoon trading. Take-Two is the subject of a $2 billion tender offer by larger rival Electronic Arts Inc. that expires next month.
