Gore Verbinski talks that Bioshock film that died at Universal Pictures a few years ago. Think it will ever be made? We don;t think so.

BioShock creator Ken Levine has been secretly toiling away on his new game for a little while in the shadows At this point, we more or less only know it is a sci-fi game with a heavy focus on a 'constructable' narrative. However, this new job listing for developer Irrational Games (via GamesRadar+), which is working with[...]

We've been slowly drip fed details about Bioshock creator Ken Levine's next game We know it has something to do with a sci-fi setting and 'fluid relationships' that change in ways that aren't similar to Telltale's, but that's about it.

The closest Western counterparts to Kojima we might have in the videogame are probably Ken Levine, director of the Bioshock games and Richard Garriott, who created the Ultima role-playing games that set the tone for fantasy RPGs ever since.  However, neither of them have put any really deep eccentricity or quirks into their games as[...]

Irrational Games was a developer of incredible value.  I say that not only as a gamer, but financially, the BioShock series Ken Levine created, generated over $500 million in revenue for 2K Games. To a company's value, that's immense.  Not only was the BioShock series a financial success, but critical as well[...]
