Bioshock 2 - Rapture Edition

It was a pleasant surprised to receive some hefty packages from the delivery man this morning of both the Xbox 360 & PS3 Rapture editions of Bioshock 2.

We were particularly impressed by the high quality and level of detail that went into the marketing collaterals, boxset, velvet inlay, metallic sheen on the boxdisc, the Vinyl imprint for the CD & Vinyl copy. Last but not least, the art books was a hefty beast itself featuring artwork from a few levels, some storyboards, dioramas and character designs.

To top it all off, the 3 vintage posters are featured proudly in the studio.

At long last, after more than a year of waiting, we get to re enter the realm of Bioshock 2, and enjoy the fruits of labour that we had helped contribute in, with regards to the early pre production and production of the environments & props.

Kudos to the team at 2K Marin, and a great job on the marketing/box set collaterals. Job well done!

Onwards with the Rapture!

Bioshock 2: Bioshocklings Invade London Tubes

Hey Folks,

Over the weekend, we took the opportunity to collate the various Bioshock 2 adverts & pictures gratuitously featured across the various London tubes.

It is not too remote to imagine what London would be like if flooded, and a Big Daddy and Little Sisters stomping through the disued tube stops.

Tomorrow, Bioshock 2 officially hits the shops, and I'm sure all the staff at 2K and our studios will be looking forward to its release.
