    I lol'd at the pic for a sec because I thought it was a set pic from Ice Pirates. Oh well, would've been funny I guess...


    ...in my own mind.

    @Gantz: Your Trusted Friend in Science.: Why don't they just shoot it in Rapture? Or maybe Sealab?

    @erlik: Considering Sealab blows up every 15 minutes (well, I think each episode only last 12 minutes due to commercials), I think it would be safer to film just directly underwater.

    "Some of the stuff we're doing is taking a conventional [first person shooter] experience and tweaking it in a way that hasn't been thought of before," Verbinski explains. "We looked at it from a different angle and changed the experience."


    Hopefully that means playing as the *bad* guys in a fps.

    This simply means They're making the First Ever First Person Shooter in Third Person!!!


    (wonders what 2nd person would be)

    @Gantz: Your Trusted Friend in Science.: 2nd Person would be from the view of the enemy?

    So you would have to shoot at whatever direction you could see from?

    I don't know. Its best not to think about it.

    @Combine: I think second person would have to be a text-based game where the game keeps referring to "you" as in the person playing as opposed to the character you're playing.

    Um Yay?! While I do admit I want to see a big screen version of Bioshock (as its story was badass) I'm also wary of it being sucky. Which terrifies me to no end as to how much suckage can happen...


    Oh and $160 mil?? Pfft! Give it to Uwe Boll and have him make it with $100 dollars,some loose change! They can shoot the entire thing at the nearest McDonalds! Hurry!

    I wish people wouldn't refer to him as the PotC director - at least when it comes to Bioshock. I'm not looking for his PotC credentials; I think his "Ring" credentials will have the desired effect

    The movie shouldn't cost $160 million ... there are methods for getting the price down. I think Universal is smart for doing this, personally.

    Honestly, I hope it stays in limbo.


    Bioshock was one of the games that proves the medium can stand on its own, it doesn't need to stand on the shoulders of movies or TV, a game doesn't need to have a movie made out of it to be considered successful.


    The general attitude seems to be that if a game is good enough, it gets a movie made out of it. My contention is that if a game is good enough, it doesn't need a movie, it can stand by itself as an effective piece of art.

    John Logan, responsible for Gladiator and The Aviator, planned to pen the script.
