Universal had director Gore Verbinski attached to produce an adaptation of BioShock for the cinema going public. It may have been an R-rated $200m blockbuster that blew our minds, but then Watchmen happened.

Universal "got cold feet" about such a budget for a film and so wanted it around $80 million. Verbinski wanted his original vision, and so directorship changed and Ken Levine "killed it."

2K Games will be announcing the BioShock Ultimate Rapture Edition which includes the original BioShock and its sequel, according to a BBFC classification; it's 18 rated.

All the DLC will also be bundled into the Ultimate Rapture Edition, as you'd expect. There's no official word from 2K Games yet but we should receive something soon.

Three developers who worked for 2K Marin have grouped up to form a new studio named The Fullbright Company. The developers, Steve Gaynor, Johnnemann Nordhagen and Karla Zimonja, had worked on BioShock 2, the Minerva’s Den DLC, Bioshock Infinite, and the first person shooter XCOM.
