A fascinating interview with John Shirley, the author.

Here is the first review of Bioshock: Rapture that I have seen and it is very positive.

"BioShock: Rapture is almost everything I would have wanted from a BioShock novel. John Shirley was...

The novel has officially released! I haven't had a chance to get my copy yet, hopefully it will be here soon. I would love to hear some people's thoughts on what they have read so far.

i am playing through the Bioshock games again to get ready for the novel and I will agree with the majority in saying that I would love another Rapture-based Bioshock game. My long-held dream is a...

A nice little detail from the excerpt we saw was that Pablo Navarro was part of Mcdonagh's crew. That makes a lot sense, he seemed like a bit too much of a slacker to get an invite to Rapture unless...

Oh, and one more thing. If any of you will be going to Comic Con, the author has informed me that he will be at the Tor Books booth on July 22nd doing book signings, so feel free to check it out.

The author John Shirley has shared an exclusive author's note with the Bioshock community that was not included in the final version of the book.

"Author's note on BIOSHOCK: RAPTURE, the novel by...

"It's the end of World War II. FDR's New Deal has redefined American politics. Taxes are at an all-time high. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki has brought a fear of total annihilation. The rise...

Anyone else getting a lot of these errors? I have only been able to get into the game once, and the one time I did, it was incredible! But I have got this message the other 30 or so times i tried to...

Well said! Mcdonagh has always been probably my favorite character for exactly this reason. It should be interesting to see the author explore some of his innermost thoughts and maybe see scenes like...

Mr. Shirley has informed me that I can share the following message with the Bioshock community. He said it was an author's note that was intended to be included in the book but was left out of the...

After speaking to the author, I am pleased to share a first look at the Bioshock novel's official cover art with the community. I am glad that they chose the beautiful "1959" piece as the basis for...

Bah, you guys are no fun. :p

In all honesty, we were probably too obvious. Just wait until next year though! Thanks to the ever-brilliant KatMann for writing the article and to my fellow mods for...

"The city of Chicago has filed a lawsuit against video game company Irrational Games, a subsidiary of Take Two International and 2K Games. Irrational, best known for its 2007 steam punk title...

Ah, very interesting. I never would have interpreted "Rise, Rapture Rise!" in such a way! I would have tended to agree with Anna Culpepper that it was just a bunch of garish, patriotic dribble. I do...

I have sorely missed these kinds of debates too. :)

I will admit that my point about Tate being a DLC character was based on a great deal of conjecture and very meager evidence. But I do honestly...

"I'm bummed.. Found out they cut 2 characters I voiced for Bioshock 2. Ava Tate was way cool, a French movie star + host of the entire game."

"They have revamped and cut many characters but said...

I never liked the Yellow Submarine movie, I have a ridiculous amount of Beatles albums though, including all of their official albums, their anthologies, the singles for "Real Love" and "Free as a...

I don't remember seeing mini-nukes for sale anywhere. I read somewhere that mini-nukes were nerfed compared to how powerful they were in Fallout 3 (and truthfully, I never thought they were that...

Honestly, my first thoughts before reading any impressions on the cover was that Duke had a sex change, what with his ample bosom, the one hand with painted fingernails, and full, pouty lips.

It is tough, but it is definitely doable to beat Proving Grounds on survivor without losing a sister. I found the most effective strategy to be spamming prox mines, cyclone traps and keeping a lot of...

I started playing it for about an hour last night. OMG, sooooooooo good. If this is indicative of the quality that we can expect of the other DLCs, New Vegas is going to have a very long and fruitful...

Well, I bought it! I will give you my thoughts once I had a chance to play through it. One thing I did read is that it raised the level cap to 35 and includes some new perks for the highest levels.

Is anyone else excited for this? The first New Vegas DLC! The Fallout 3 DLCs are still my all time favorite, save for perhaps Minerva's Den.

Hopefully we get to have this guy as a permanent...

That is a good point about the placeholder cover. I hadn't considered that but it may well be the case. I suppose we can at least say that the fact it is getting even a placeholder cover means it is...
