"Maybe print is not quite dead just yet. Lot's of magazines have been stumbling these days but PC Gamer has snatched an exclusive first hands on preview for the BioShock 2 multiplayer which will be added to the game despite controversy. The staff of PC Gamer enjoyed a first playthrough of one of Rapture's levels and lived to tell about it."
One of the most popular video game franchises of all time is set to receive a Netflix film adaptation, according to an announcement on Tuesday afternoon.
Gee...can't wait to see how many things they change and stray away from, oh don't forget the miscast actors
Netflix did well with Dare Devil and the Punisher and I hear the Witcher is pretty good I know when I had Netflix at the time Stranger Things was also good. But Bioshock I love the franchise Bioshock Infinite is my favorite game I would pay the $21 Canadian just to check out Bioshock. Normally I would never renew my Netflix after they did their price hike but Bioshock would be worth it.
Love Bioshock but I'll prepare myself for the likelihood this will be both crap and a pale imitation of the source material. That covers most video game adaptations and Netflix films.
The best games are able to create a never-before-seen setting and weave a completely engaging story into its DNA. One series beats almost all others out for its environmental storytelling and narrative: BioShock.
Hurts to see the word "worst" related to Bioshock saga.
The 3 games are masterpieces.
oh great. Can’t wait to see the posts of game titles in a ranked order without context as to why.
In a podcast with Wassup Conversations, Jordan Thomas, director and the writer of BioShock 2 reveals his initial ideas for a new rapture and how they were shut down by 2K.
"My first proposal was about a little sister, it was playing as a little sister and it was much more horror-oriented pace and about vulnerability, closer to Thief frankly, but I was told no, we want it to be our Gears of War, this need to be a big shooter franchise with an emphasis on the shooter element, and so what I think of the protagonist of a shooter as is a big lumbering sort of porthole on a stick with guns sticking out in front like you’re almost a vehicle."
And he also wanted it to be above the sea or in space. What a wasted opportunity.
It's surprising the game turned out to be good with this guy at the helm. The combat mechanics were actually the biggest improvement in the sequel as much as he wouldn't want to hear that, everything else was inferior.
Oh my gosh...
sounds amazing. I think i might get addicted to this when release. I hope you get to use at least half the plasmids from the game.

It has now been confirmed that the multiplayer of BioShock 2 will be very story driven and take place one year before BioShock. This new mode will explain much of what happened to Rapture and how it became the way it was seen in 2007’s smash hit BioShock. Players will be taking control of regular people who build up the city of rapture and are now partaking in another one of Andrew Ryan’s sick games. A civil war broke out in Rapture and players will become part of it as a Sinclair Solutions tester. As such you will be given standard weapons we’ve seen in the previous BioShock with a few exceptions such as powering plasmids the longer you hold them. Players will have the ability to hack turrets (time, not mini game) to take out the opposition and also use quick melee to get some fast kills. Here are some of the features to be found in BioShock 2:
Play as an original Big Daddy or kill him (he will act as a power-up)
Collect Atom to level up and reveal more story
Power up plasmids for more powerful attacks (fire, ice and electricity)
Game Modes are: Free-For-All, Team Death Match and an undisclosed 3rd mode
Use 3 load-outs to switch weapons during re-spawns
Personalized character
10 player matches
Pre-game menu is a 3D modeled apartment
sounds good..no great.
Looking and sounding really good!
Well it's definitely not disappointing, but considering the nature of Bioshock, I think single player still is the big thing going for it.
