    Rapture Gazette is hiring ;)

    After a long time of wondering, I finally started a newsblog about Bioshock called Rapture Gazette.

    Why does it not look like a typical Bioshock fansite?

    Well, it's more like a newsblog about Bioshock and the theme is a newspaper (although for now backgrounds might remind on a swimming pool). That's why there are no BD and LS popping up everywhere. And I did not want to underline the forsaken character of the city so this is the result .

    I like to include some Ads from Rapture to create the feel of reading a newspaper. Backgrounds and Header are taken from the in-game textures of Bioshock.

    The news at Rapture Gazette should include official words from the CoR website, but also Bioshock related news from other major websites (Kotaku, IGN, Gamepro...) as well as word of the dev team in the forums and the latest chatter here.

    If people like to help/assist me with the site and enjoy reporting about Bioshock - just let me know .

    So far, the URL is:

    yea pretty cool but rather redundant, really depending on what news is listed elsewhere and not on CoR...which i think would and will be minimal. Guess we'll see. I'd love to contribute if there was something to contribute. Maybe there will be once the game gets released.

    You've might got a point there, but CoR is mainly focussed on news for the community. My blog is more a mirror of the community, what we discuss here and how Irrational reacted at the boards.

    I also collect fragments of little news mentioned here (like voice acting is already finished, gambling at the casino etc.) and not to forget interviews and media outside of CoR .

    If I had a bigger team and more time - for sure.

    So far I have even too less man power to run Lionnose (www.lionnose.net Lionhead Studios blog) bilingual and always up to date.

    Looking forward to it. Liz certainly has her hands full this week. But she doesn't need any prep, just bring her mind & a bottle of Glenfiddich

    2K would love that in a podcast, I bet.
