New developer for BioShock 2 - No Ken Levine. This will have no effect on my purchasing decision.

In other news - Condemned 2 hits stores tomorrow

kcxiv · 03-11-2008, 05:44 PM

I seen a report where they say Ken will be assisting with it.

kcxiv · 03-11-2008, 05:47 PM

UPDATE: A Take-Two representative has confirmed to Shack News that Ken Levine will be involved in the BioShock 2 project in some capacity, saying "[Levine] is critical to BioShock." Reassuring news, though it's still unclear how closely Levine will be working with the 2K Marin studio during development, especially since he almost certainly has his own new projects to work on with his team at 2K Boston.

ORIGINAL STORY: Consider us not very shocked at today's announcement from Take-Two Games that a sequel to last year's uber-successful BioShock is on the way. Take-Two says they are aiming for a fall 2009 release for the game, sticking to their previously-revealed desire to release a new BioShock game every two years.

As had been heavily rumored, BioShock 2 will be developed by the brand-new 2K Marin studio, which was formed by a group of BioShock developers late last year. That means that 2K Boston and presumably BioShock lead brain Ken Levine will not be directly involved in the sequel.

In addition to the hardcore-exciting BioShock news, Take-Two also passed along some scraps for the casuals. Bragging that their Wii minigame collection Carnival Games has sold over one million units since its August 2007 launch, 2K Play announced two new games in the franchise. First off is a portable Nintendo DS version of Carnival Games due out this summer, followed by the brand-extending Carnival Games: Mini-Golf for the Wii this fall.

We're all excited for the Mini-Golf, no doubt, but what we really would like to know is whether or not that rumor about the next BioShock game actually being a prequel is true. After all, how else is a return visit to Rapture going to be possible? Hopefully more information will be forthcoming shortly.

A prequel, with Levine on-board, would make me very excited.

**QuikSsurfer** · 03-11-2008, 06:11 PM

very cool

Mr. Plow · 03-11-2008, 06:18 PM

Ok. Who's played Army of Two. Thinking about picking it up.

Playing it now.

Rent, don't buy.

Got a call from Microsoft this morning.

My 360 arrived and they were wondering what exactly was wrong with it.

Apparently, the case that I opened and the piece of paper I filled out that shipped back with the XBox weren't enough.

You should have drawn a map.

Heh, you would think they would just know. I mean hell, they all go in for practically the same thing.

**QuikSsurfer** · 03-12-2008, 04:15 PM

UP, you should clean up the 1st post - lots of those users are no longer live.

Kraus · 03-12-2008, 05:47 PM

Anybody picking up Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 in a week?

I'm too busy playing Rome - Total War right now...

Mr. Plow · 03-17-2008, 06:22 PM

Alright. I didn't play the first one, but I'm getting ready to buy a new game. The new one coming out is Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 2. I know we won't have "first hand" experience yet, but what are everyone's thoughts?
