System Shock 2

System Shock 2

2K Boston's Ken Levine says he "loves" the world of System Shock (the series contains the spiritual predecessors to BioShock), and would be keen on a third game in the EA-owned series if the opportunity ever came up. Levine is currently tied to Take-Two.

This is especially interesting news as a third game in the series was in pre-production status for awhile until EA decided it "didn't give a sh**" about the game (according to Levine).

Bioshock currently does not have a multiplayer component. This was done by design by the Irrational Games crew. They have mentioned on several occasions why they focused on single player. Ken Levine has mentioned that the focus would make for a better single player experience because they would not be distracted by a multiplayer component. Several times in the past, Irrational has added multiplayer to games like Freedom Force and System Shock 2 with poor results.
