[News] Bioshock 2 announced

Given that 2k Marin was just recently formed and noone knows the offical staff of the group. I would say that there is a good chance that many of the people who originally worked on Bioshock could easily be apart of the team doing Bioshock 2. Hell, as far as any of us know, It could be just Ken Levine and Crew who are making it.

but please stop with the speculation that it is gonna suck because it isn't headed by the original developers. No one knows who works at 2k Marin besides 2k themselves.

Also a Bioshock sequel could turn out be excellent. Yes, it wouldn't work well if they did a direct continuation from the end of the first game, but too many people tend to forget that the events that led to the fall of Rapture and the power struggles between Fontaine and Ryan were never properly explained in-depth. Plus they didn't explain the Big Daddys, and a bunch of other stuff. I think it is most likely gonna be a prequel to the first game which would be amazing.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I just mean by the possiblilty of the game flopping is that... if the original team's really not working on it, then the new team may not be able to capture the "feel" that the original had. I'm not saying it's automatically gonna suck, I'm just saying it makes me a little more skeptical about it.

2k has already annouced that Ken Levine will be apart of it. If you dig around and take a look at 2k Marin, you'll see that it is affiliated with 2k Boston in the same way that 2k Australia is. Also, before the formation of 2k Marin was offical, rumors were circulating that part of the Bioshock Dev team was to branch off and make their own 2k studio and then boom 3-4 weeks later, 2k Marin is born.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
