    Bioshock 1 was an actual shock. 2, never finished it. Infinite, differently themed shooter with some twists that already had it reaching out to alternative universes but wasn’t so much of a “bio shock”.

    Alternate universes is the modern version of jumping the shark. Starfield did it on its first go, and look at how that ended. Look at Marvel.

    Can’t understand why Bioshock got that much attention and System Shock sort of got ditched for other companies to remaster. Now do SoulShock.

      IIRC Ken Levine wanted to make another System Shock game but Irrational couldn’t get the rights.
