See all detials of Bioshock 2

The Evolve team joined the exclusive crowd over at Sony’s Present & Future Preview event at the Openhouse Gallery in Soho. With their 2010 exclusives hovering above the crowd and third party blockbusters making an impact at the bottom floor; the PS3 and PSP brought out their best going into the holiday season and the new decade.

Stopping by the house that Sonic built, Sega introduced three of their highly anticipated titles: Bayonetta, Aliens Vs. Predator, and the recently announce Yakuza 3. After a quick hands-on with Bayonetta, all we can say is what we’ve been pushing all along; it’s a must own. The cinematic presentation of Yakuza was highly impressive and our sneak peak of the Predator and Marine missions for AVP introduced the numerous goodies of each race. The fatalities are brutal to say the least, with one featuring the Predator ripping out the spinal cord of a solider with finesse. When asked if Aliens: Colonial Marines was still ago, reps stated they couldn’t comment on it.

2K showed off the graphically stunning Bioshock 2 and gave us a quick run through of the upcoming sequel. The Big Daddy prototype looks bonkers and the multiplayer features look promising. EA showcased their action-horror title Dante’s Inferno, which played like a God of War clone, but looked like a solid hack-n-slash.

Biggest game hands-down was clearly God of War III. Undeniable the best looking PS3 game to date, describing the ladder of the demo would serve it no justice. Baseball fans gained access to the latest edition of the MLB franchise, MLB 2010. It’s steadily prepping for spring training. A hands-on look of Gran Turismo 5 was present as well, which is already on everyone’s radar come February.

The portable showcase was minimal to say the least, but introduced audiences to the latest Socom adventure: Fireteam Bravo 3, along with demos of the puzzle-fueled Gravity Crash and the strategy-infused PixelJunk Monsters. And that all folks!

2009 is coming to a close, and that means that the majority of this years major game releases have now been, well, released. Usually this would be a time to reflect back on what’s happened this year, but fuck that (for the time being), lets take a gander at what i’m personally looking forward to at some point next year.

Dante’s Inferno

I do love a good hack and slash game, even if i’m absolutely terrible at them, and Dante’s Inferno certainly has my interest. It’s based off of a poem by Dante Alighieri called The Divine Comedy, which described the nine circles of hell. It’s probably going to be a pretty disturbing game – hence the reason why i’m interested in it. Needless to say you should check out some of the developer diaries.

Brink

Brink is something that I only actually found out about yesterday, it’s an FPS set in the future on something called “The Ark”, which is an artificial island in the middle of the ocean somewhere. However, The Ark has lost contact with the rest of the Earth, and now there’s a struggle for resources.

Brink interests me for two reasons, the first being the SMART system that they’ve put in the game, which allows you to jump, or vault over objects to get where you want to go. It kind of reminds me of Mirror’s Edge, only it actually looks good. The second reason this game interests me is the class system, which actually seems to alter the way that you can achieve your objective, which means that there should be a lot of replay value in store for us here.

Also, it has 8 player co-op. Bitchin’.

Bioshock 2

Although unlikely to be a game that i’ll get on release date, Bioshock 2 still holds interest. The first game (Which I only completed earlier this year) was awesome in every sense of the word, the atmosphere, voice acting and story telling were all excellent, so i’m pretty excited to see what the sequel has to offer.

Bad Company 2

This game will completely dominate my spare time when it’s released in March. The first Bad Company is already an excellent multiplayer title, the large-scale battles and destructible environments really do it for me. It’s awesome to roll in to battle with a few tanks and Helicopters with your buddies in them. Good times indeed. This’ll be a day-one purchase for me fo’ sho’.

Halo Reach

Although ODST has put a massive dent in my love of the Halo games, Halo Reach is still something that i’m going to be keeping an eye on at the very least. We’re going to be treated to some in-game footage on the 12th December, so fingers crossed that it’ll be good, right?

Split/Second

I was actually surprised to discover that Disney is the publisher of this title – which looks like a bit of a cross between Need for Speed and Burnout. It’s an arcade-style racer, where you can cause parts of the track to explode to create new shortcuts, or to take out an opponents car. It looks pretty awesome, and is certainly something that’s worth keeping an eye on.

Blur

Another arcade style racer here – this time I was dismayed to learn that it’s published by Activision, but the actual game itself looks pretty good, and reminds me of a game that I used to play in my childhood called RC Revenge, so in a strange way I think it’ll actually be somewhat nostalgic.

Crackdown 2

Last but certainly not least, it’s Crackdown 2. The original Crackdown came out in 2007 – admittedly the only reason I ever heard of it was because of the Halo 3 Beta. Luckily, Crackdown was actually a pretty damn good game. The levelling system was pretty fun and gave you something to aim for, although it lacked challenge at times, it was still something that you could pick up, play, and have a good time with. Even better – the sequel supports four player co-op. Can you say “Win”?

That’s my list for titles that i’m looking forward to for 2010 – and I have a feeling that i’ve missed some as well. Needless to say next year will be a bad year for my wallet.

Tal como no primeiro jogo a campanha de divulgação é fantástica.

Oooh en serio, yo no tengo la culpa que la mayoría de las notas del día de hoy hayan sido de imágenes y más imágenes

Como bien les dije, es turno de ver unas nuevas screencaps del muy afamado y esperado Bioshock 2 que saldrá en el próximo año fuck las imágenes vienen en una excelente resolución la cual nos permite apreciar a fondo la calidad del trabajo que 2K le ha invertido a esta secuela.

Lo espero con ansías… Bueno a estas alturas espero tantos juegos que no se como voy a a hacer para jugar tanto juego chingon que viene para el 2010.

Dans BioShock, vous incarniez un humain qui découvrait la citée sous-marine de Rapture (ou, du moins, c’est ce que vous pensiez être). Au cœur des années 30, cette ville utopique et secrète avait dégénéré. Mise en scène captivante, scénario en béton caractérisaient ce soft. Nous n’espérons pas moins de sa suite. Toutefois, pour l’instant, peu d’éléments du scénario ont été révélés. Nous savons juste que nous incarnerons un prototype de Big Daddy. Vous savez, ces étranges “scaphandriers” qui protégeaient les Petites Sœurs dans le premier jeu. 10 ans après votre escapade du titre original, Rapture est toujours aussi “accueillante”…

Les événements contés dans Bioshock 2 ont beau se dérouler 10 ans après ceux du premier épisode, et nous placer aux commandes d’un nouveau personnage, il ne faut pas plus de quelques minutes pour se remettre dans le bain. Un doux euphémisme lorsque l’action se déroule une fois de plus dans la citée engloutie de Rapture. Cette fois-ci, on jouera un prototype de Big Daddy, ces énormes personnages en scaphandre si difficiles à terrasser dans le précédent opus. Le joueur aura aussi des choix différents en ce qui concerne les petites soeurs. Celles-ci n’auront plus peur de lui et il pourra alors les adopter et fonctionner comme un Big Daddy ou alors les tuer et aller à l’encontre de son personnage.
Une autre histoire le concernant prendra forme pour ce premier Big Daddy qui fait son travail de protection depuis plusieurs dizaines d’années.

Le fait d’incarner un Big Daddy va permettre de pouvoir se déplacer sous l’eau et voir Rapture de l’extérieur et de voir aussi tous les jolis petits effets sous l’eau que permet le moteur d’Unreal 3.

Il y a aussi une info en plus sur l’histoire de cette suite. Le jeu prendra donc part 7 ans après le premier et après que des petites soeurs aient pu s’échapper de Rapture. Et bien une de ces petites soeurs a réagit différemment (celle qu’on a pu voir dans le premier trailer avec une poupée de Big Daddy) et ne peut pas vivre sans Rapture. Un jour elle devient introuvable après avoir sauter dans l’océan. Tout une série d’évènements se produisent et sont ceux qui étaient relayés par le site officiel sur Bioshock 2. Je vous laisse faire ensuite la relation … Le but de notre quête sera de retrouver une fillette ; la « petite sœur » originelle, à laquelle notre personnage est étrangement lié. Et si, en lisant ces quelques lignes vous êtes un peu perdu, ne vous inquiétez pas, les développeurs de 2K Marin ont pensés aux joueurs qui découvriront l’univers si particulier de Bioshock avec cette suite. En effet, le joueur sera confronté très tôt dans l’aventure à une sorte de tutoriel grandeur nature. Il prendra la forme d’un parc d’attractions construit par le fondateur de Rapture, qui, grâce à de nombreux tableaux vous expliquera l’histoire de ce projet fantasmagorique, mais aussi l’enjeu de ce nouveau jeu sur fond d’affrontement idéologique entre deux courants de pensée : celui du fondateur de Rapture Andrew Ryan et de la dissidente Sophia Lamb.

La grande nouveauté de cet épisode de Bioshock 2 est l’apparition d’un mode multijoueur en ligne nommé : Fall of Rapture et qui ravira ceux pour qui le mode solo ne suffit pas.

Pour l’occasion, 2K Games a fait revenir l’un des personnages clés du premier opus 10 ans après. Les habitants de Rapture ont ainsi décidé d’ériger un piédestal à l’effigie de leur héros et dieu, Jack Ryan.

Bioshock 2 sortira le 9 février 2010 sur Xbox 360 et Playstation 3..

Usually I’m not into cosplay ’cause I find a lot of it borderline pedophilic and sexually creepy, but this is pretty damn awesome. The photos were taken at the Georgia Aquarium and that amazing Big Daddy suit is actually for sale on Ebay. An interesting note from the ebay listing: “Its difficult, though not impossible, to fit into a hotel elevator.” I would have enjoyed watching that.

I’ve been really into videogames lately. I’m a huge fan of the Aliens/Predator series, and I just found out about this a couple of days ago. This is the AVP game trailer.

Bioshock 2 looks like it will be as amazing as the first. This is a walkthrough.

Also, a big congratulations to the Alien saga on their 30th anniversary! The first two movies are so well done.

Made me think of this:

How Lusipurr Feels when Podcasting

Turkey is on the menu as the podcast panel gears up for Thanksgiving, now less than a week away. Nate is hungry and can think only of Turkey, whilst Eric J and Ginia desperately try to distract him from further amateur operatics. Poor Lusipurr!

I loved Bioshock even though I wasn’t in a great rush to go out and buy it upon release. It was loaned to me by a friend who thought I might enjoy it and how right he was. The game dripped atmosphere, was just about the right length for me to cope with and was rich in story and character. When the teaser trailers came out for the sequel almost a year ago now I have to admit to not really wanting it to happen. I’d become, in my own way, quite protective of my experiences in Rapture during the first game. That story did not need a sequel, much less one with multiplayer modes tacked onto it. Everything about Bioshock 2 seemed designed as a cash in especially is it lacked the original design team. Having recently seen gameplay footage I’ve been swayed. Maybe, just maybe there’s life in the old place yet. I really thought that you couldn’t stage another game in Rapture itself simply because it would never match the thrill ride that the first time around was. By the looks of it there’s life in the old place yet and that life is jacked up on Adam and ready to rip you apart.

It appears they’ve thought about the story enough that it’ll be a natural continuation rather than something thrown together and the idea of playing as a Big Daddy, vilified during the initial announcement, seems to hold some logic. Bioshock 2 will hopefully be a worthy sequel to a classic first game and it’s currently down on my 2010 ‘Want List’ especially as the limited edition version has a LP record of the soundtrack with it.

It’s not often that a game that I held no interest in beforehand changes my mind and makes it into my radar but Bioshock 2 has just about done it.

Pese a que ésta información está disponible por ahí desde ayer, me parece interesante compartir ésto con vosotros (y, además, hacía algunos días que no bloggeaba apenas). A continuación podéis ver lo que será la portada (versión de Xbox 360), y tras el salto encontraréis la de las otras versiones y las ediciones de coleccionistas, así como un breve comentario sobre la carátula y el contenido de las ediciones limitadas del futuro Bioshock 2:

Como podéis ver, es bastante parecida a la del original (si no las recordáis, a continuación las podéis encontrar) gracias a la presencia de un Big Daddy y una Little Sister, aunque a mi parecer no llega a causar tanto impacto ni desprende tanto cariño.

Y ahora hablemos de las ediciones especiales del juego:

La primera de ellas, llamada Rapture Edition estará compuesta por el juego y un libro de arte de 96 páginas totalmente en español llamado Deco Devolución – El Arte de BioShock 2, y todo ello vendrá empaquetado en una funda especial.

La segunda se llamará Edición Especial (la tenéis en la foto bajo éstas líneas) y, pese a que el nombre puede parecer “peor”, su contenido será mucho más espectacular:

• El juego
• Una versión del libro Deco Devolución – El Arte de BioShock 2 de 164 páginas y tapa dura, totalmente en español
• 3 pósteres que imitan los anuncios que podemos encontrar en el juego (todos ellos de estilo vintage) en tamaño A3
• Un CD con música orquestral de Bioschock 2
• Un LP de 12″ con la música orquestral del primer Bioshock e información del compositor y sus influencias
• Una caja especial que contendrá todo esto

Todas éstas ediciones se pondrán a la venta el próximo día 9 de febrero de 2010. La Edición Rapture tendrá un precio recomendado de 69′95€, mientras que la Edición Limitada se encontrará a un precio de 89′95€ (ambas son exclusivas de PlayStation 3 y Xbox 360).

В shacknews.com се появиха малко детайли относно специалното издание на BioShock 2, което за моя радост ще се появи и за PC!

Тъ, за какво си говорим?

Пакета ще съдържа:
- BioShock 2
- 164 странична книга с твърди корици, съдържаща арт от играта;
- 180г плоча със SCORE-а на оригиналният BioShock (180г плоча може да не говори много на средностатистическият потребител, но ако сте маниак на тема звук, би трябвало тукощоо да сте се подмокрили);
- аудио CD с SCORE-а на BioShock 2;
- 3 автентични плакати от дълбините на Rapture.
Цялото това нещо ще е прилежно опаковано в специална черна кутия с пеперуда отгоре!

АБЕ изродщина. Аз лично харесах първият BioShock доста, и определено чакам вторият с интерес (а вече ще имаме и сериозно мулти така че). А колекционерското издание… е страхотно
Разбира се, в момента в които имам информация за това колко ще струва цялото това нещо в България (и ще се продава ли въобще), ще ви информирам, а до тогава ви оставям да точите лиги.

В нормалните държави BioShock 2 Special Edition излиза паралелно със стандартната версия, т.е. на 9-ти февруари, 2010!
