Project Icarus may be Bioshock Infinity - a new Bioshock set in the sky and above the clouds. This is the newest rumor. Check the link for more.
TGH: Irrational Games has officially unveiled their upcoming project codenamed: Project Icarus."
NowGamer has weighed up the evidence ahead of Irrational Games' Project Icarus reveal tonight and reveals what it believes to be Ken Levine's new project.
It would be cool, but do enough younger gamers know about System Shock to make it bankable? I'm not sure but I really would like to see a new sequel.
Reboots are all the rage these days. Looking forward to the new XCOM game too. Mind you, that latest Deus Ex trailer didn't really do it for me.
In additions to Feckles point about XCOM, you forgot about Fallout 3? I doubt 90% of that audience REALLY played the originals. System Shock on a next gen platform with all the polish Levine brings? Could sell tons.
Or real time Samurai strategy games? That had me confused too. I thought for a second that maybe the dude was mixed up with Settlers of Catan or maybe one of Molyneux's later Populous games or something.
i would love system shock 3 and i recon its highly likely but i would have thought that would have been more of an e3 type thing to announce
Seriously. Fans mentioned every possible Irrational/Levine sequel in the Irrational podcast.
Not to mention that it was confirmed Levine was working on "an original project which could become a new franchise" as early as April this year.
That Darkness 2 guess was pretty well researched, I doubt it will be that though.
Irrational Games have announced that they will be releasing the debut trailer for their upcoming codenamed title, Project Icarus, next Thursday.
The debut trailer will come one day after the game is officially unveiled at a US New York press event next Wednesday.
It sounds like an awesome concept, yet lame at the same time.
If it's a new BioShock, it would be a refreshing change from underwater Rapture. But i'm hoping it's a new IP.
i would rather have a new storyline rather than one that is linked to bioshock.
Rise Rapture Rise! We turn our hopes up to the skies!
I cannot see another Bioshock being set in Rapture. It just can't be. How lame, generic and boring can the series get? It's already at the bottom of my play list. In fact, I have no desire to play a BioShock game again. The 1st one bored me to tears. I'm sure the second is no better.
I am pretty sure Ken said that it was a new, original IP.
