BioShock

samIamsad · 01-02-2006, 09:21 PM

Any news? One of the few games I'm actually waiting for...

Karmillo · 01-02-2006, 10:57 PM

Never heard of it..what is it?

Intrepid Homoludens · 01-03-2006, 12:13 AM

Isn't it a kind of follow-up to System Shock 2?

squarejawhero · 01-03-2006, 12:51 AM

Yes, by the same team. There was some news I posted some time ago, do a search as I can't remember what it was!

samIamsad · 01-03-2006, 12:53 AM

Yupp. Kind of. There had been a preview article on Gamespot a couple of months ago, and then.. nothing. I hope Eric Brosius is involved again. It's just amazing what this guy did in Thief and Shock 2. *audio whore!*

squarejawhero · 01-03-2006, 01:04 AM

Well, no news is good news. Lots of news equals Unreal 2.

sethsez · 01-03-2006, 02:53 AM

Well, in all fairness lots of news also equalled Half-Life 2.

NcroManiac · 01-03-2006, 03:13 AM

Pfft! It'll be nothing compared to the awesomeness of BioForge

Kidding. I'm excited as hell!

Dasilva · 01-03-2006, 04:41 AM

Is this being made bi Irrational Games?

NcroManiac · 01-03-2006, 04:48 AM

Yup. A spiritual sequel to one of the scariest game in existence!

Dasilva · 01-03-2006, 05:14 AM

OMG! I know one of the developers thats working on that game. OMG! This fantastic.

samIamsad · 01-03-2006, 08:26 AM

So then... bring us some news, Dasilva!

@squarejaw: Found your post. They've signed a publishing deal? That's great!

It's still not official, as far as I'm aware, but it certainly looks that way

This is one of my most awaited games right now (up there with Dreamfall and Operation Flashpoint 2) and it's looking to be an awesome experience.

Although I played the System Shock 2 demo when the game came out back in 1999 I got the game only around a year ago and am playing it right now. It's not without its flaws for sure, but certainly one of the best games I've ever played.

Just in case anyone missed it, GameInformer magazine has a rather cool bit of concept art from Bioshock on its cover.

There's a larger version on GameInformer's website
http://www.gameinformer.com/News/Sto...1259.37704.htm

Going to have to try and track down a copy of this mag, i didn't see one in the shop today.

Dasilva · 02-08-2006, 04:06 PM

Nice!

jjacob · 02-08-2006, 04:17 PM

God I hope they don't dumb this game down. Till I hear more good news I remain sceptical.

I'm subscribed to that magazine (complimentary with buying a membership card at Gamestop, but it expires 3/06, so hopefully I'll get this issue as my final issue). If not, meh.

Dasilva · 02-09-2006, 09:19 AM

I need to subscribe to PC Gamer, love that mag. The best.

RLacey · 02-09-2006, 09:22 AM

The UK or the US version? Either way, I disagree that it's the best
