[Update: As of today, PlayStation Plus subscribers can now download BioShock: The Collection, The Sims 4, and Firewall Zero Hour for free from the PlayStation Store. February will be a tough month to top.] Sony is throwing in a bonus PS4 ga...

The time has come for a celebration collection of old games to hit the Switch. No one could have predicted this completely unique, not-at-all-tired moment in gaming history where a big publisher sees dollar signs on a very lucrative platfor...

This morning, when 2K Games revealed the existence of a new studio, Cloud Chamber, it also took the opportunity to unveil the developer's first title. It's the fourth BioShock game, a series that has been largely dormant since Bio...

2K Games has announced the founding of a new studio, Cloud Chamber, which is comprised of two teams working out of San Francisco and Montreal (the latter being 2K's first Canadian representation). It was also announced that the new studio w...

Happy Halloween, ghoulish readership! As the days draw shorter, the air becomes crisper and the lattes taste spicier, the time for horror and gore is now upon us. No doubt many of us will be spending All Hallows' Eve playing a bunch of terr...

An exciting new promotion launches today on PSN. In keeping with the spoopy themes of October, the "Sale of the Dead" slashes (with a chainsaw probably) prices on a huge range of video games for PS4, PS3, and PS Vita.A bloody bevy of Reside...

Ken Levine has gone on record several times stating that he didn't like the way the climactic fight in BioShock turned out. Here's an example from as far back as 2011. This is not a new development. But Levine willingly ate crow again,...

"No Gods or Kings. Only man." The banner that hung in the atrium of the bathysphere terminus where BioShock's protagonist began his adventure was the first thing to grab my attention and pull me into that world. I first played BioShock...

Moms don't often take the spotlight in the world of video games. They're usually killed early on, take on some sort of villainous role, or sit quietly in the background while their children go off to save the world.  With Mot...

BioShock is one of 2K Games' most important properties, but there hasn't been much rumbling about where the series will go next. The most recent installment was 2013's BioShock Infinite; a year after its release, lead BioShock stu...

[I had a couple of ideas for the heel-turn prompt, but for some reason I never thought of this one. It's a good choice really. What better heel-turn is there than this character, who literally is your ally and turns on you right at the pivo...

Irrational Games is dead. Well, not really. Earlier this year, the studio known for titles like BioShock and System Shock 2 rebranded itself as Ghost Story Games, the final step in a shift away from its triple-A pedigree towards a tigh...

[This is not a drill, people - you only have three and a half more days to play horror games. After Tuesday night, you have to put them all back on the shelf until next October. Nobody plays horror games November-September. It's illegal. Pr...

[There are not many feelings in this world, besides sex, that are as satisfying as besting an enemy that genuinely tests your skill. When you come out on top, you feel like a total badass. Not because it was easy but because it wasn’t...

This gets my vote for today's coolest thing (that isn't new but is new to me). 98DEMAKE is a YouTube creator who takes modern video games and imagines what they might've looked like had they originally released in 1998. I've seen plenty of ...

2k Games has announced BioShock: 10th Anniversary Collector's Edition for PS4 and Xbox One, available November 14th. Coming in at $199.99, this pricey bundle includes last year's BioShock: The Collection, which includes touched-up vers...

Mention a "video game music tribute album" and the first thing that usually comes to mind is a tribute to an old-school Japanese franchise, like The Legend of Zelda, Chrono Trigger, or Final Fantasy. Y'know games that working composers in t...

Does anyone remember the short-lived iOS port of BioShock? This port of the critically-acclaimed first-person shooter was first released back in 2014, and only lasted on the iOS App Store for about 13 months before incompatibility...

Backward compatibility on Xbox One often turns out to be the best way to experience 360 titles. Any form of screen tearing is removed and framerates tend to be more consistent throughout. There are definitely some notable exceptions to that...

I'm in love with how developers and Microsoft have been pushing backward compatibility on the Xbox One. 2K may have released an updated version of BioShock, but you can now just play the original 360 release on your shiny new box. That is a...

Live and on stage, for one night only, game developers Forrest Dowling (The Flame in the Flood, BioShock Infinite) and Trevor Stricker (Panzer Dragoon Orta, Jungle Rumble) will be joining me and my co-hosts Will and Marilyn from the Player ...

[Photo by Ginger Troll] A few weeks ago, I spoke about how BioShock Remastered was pretty crappy on PC. 2K had announced it was working on a patch, but never gave out a specific date. Thankfully, the wait for a playable release is now over....

HBO is hoping that its new TV show Westworld will be its next Game of Thrones-level hit, but based on the middling first episode I'm not sure how that's going to play out. Speaking to Vice, showrunner and co-creator Jonathan ...
