With BioShock Infinite's February 26 launch drawing near, developer Irrational Games has detailed the PC edition's wide range of graphics and control options, along with its system requirements. The BioShock series has suffered from issues like wonky widescreen and missing controller support on PC before, but on paper it sounds like things are shaping up nicely for Infinite.
BioShock Infinite already has many people excited for its March 26 release (including Jeff and Steve), but if you really need any more enticing, developer Irrational Games has released four more screens showing off some of the combat and environment in Columbia.
If you have skipped the BioShock series for some reason, perhaps due to a lengthy coma or immense silliness, you'll soon be able to make amends with one handy bundle. Publisher 2K today announced the BioShock: Ultimate Rapture Edition collection, which bundles the first two games together with all their DLC. Super keen BioShock fans may be interested too, as it introduces a new virtual museum level filled with BioShock history.
After all the folderol surrounding the BioShock Infinite box cover and the "frat boy" appeal, Developer Irrational Games held a poll for an alternate cover. The winner was the Songbird, with about 38 percent of the vote.
Garry Schyman, who composed the original score for the first two BioShock games, has returned for BioShock Infinite according to Irrational creative director Ken Levine.
Irrational Games has released a trailer of the first five minutes from BioShock Infinite. It's got a few spoilers, and lots of water, so don't watch if you want to wait for the game (or you get seasick easily).
BioShock Infinite creator Ken Levine talks about the complexities of the politics in the game, and why he's hearing criticism from different sides of the political spectrum.
BioShock Infinite will feature a reversible cover for those who don't want to look at the one designed for "frathouses," and Irrational is holding a poll on which one to include.
Irrational head Ken Levine elaborates on why the studio nixed the multiplayer modes in BioShock Infinite.
The decision to use such boring art for BioShock Infinite was quite intentional. Creative director Ken Levine admitted that the cover is meant to appeal to "frathouses and places like that."
