SAD NEWS: No more Bioshock
You read it. Ken Levine is closing down Irrational games, a move that will mean everybody but 16 people of the entire studio will be laid off... The chosen few will accompany him in creating a very small inside branch at Take 2 Studios (it will be focused on development of smaller, digital distributed and narrative driven games...).

Rumors (they're always there... ) have spread speculating that in fact it was a shut down by Take 2 due to poor sales by Bioshock Infinite (it's THAT possible???).
Anyways... I always thought that Infinite was the last, good and proper ending to the series; it just saddens me that such huge ammount of organised talent will be scattered to the four winds... An inglorious ending if you ask me. And only the Big, "usual" gaming corporations can take full advantage of that...
Hopefully perhaps our Polish overlords can offer some good positions to some or those great talented people? There's still a lot of work for CP2077 I bet...
