Feature Multiplayer Cross-Over Is A Bit Of A Nightmare - "Twiggy" The Push Square Opinionator
It seems to me that every video game has multiplayer these days
More or less. And even when it's debateable whether a game should have multiplayer (Bioshock 2 springs to mind), the resulting component tends to be rather impressive. But that causes its own sub-set of problems, particularly for someone like myself who has to play through multiple...

There's new DLC incoming for Bioshock 2

News Aliens vs Predator Shoots Straight To The Top Of The Pops... Erm, Charts
Another week and another shooter has taken the crown from Ubisoft's current Wii phenomenom, Just Dance
Amazingly for Rebellion, Aliens vs Predator has become the fastest-selling game in 2010, topping last week's record holder, Bioshock 2 (now in third). Of course, they're both gonna get crushed by Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Either way, big congrats...
News Bioshock 2 Takes The UK Charts' Top Spot, Bayonetta Re-Enters
Apparently Bioshock is still a big deal, as Bioshock 2 has shot straight to the top of the UK charts, removing previous leader Mass Effect 2
Interestingly, after a slew of price-cuts (and perhaps that Playstation 3 patch), Bayonetta has re-entered the charts in number 10 (up from 36). Elsewhere, Fifa 10 and Modern Warfare 2 are still strong...
News "Many Stories" To Tell In Bioshock Lore, Claim 2K
Bioshock 2's Michael Kamper has told CVG that there are many stories to be told in the franchise's universe, mainly thanks to the uniqueness of Raptures setting
Rapture is probably one of the most unique places ever invented. I have to imagine that there are many stories that could be told within its walls. But right now were just focused on...
News PushSquare's Playstation Picks: 8th-14th February 2010

PushSquare's Playstation Pick Of The Week: Bioshock 2 Perhaps the most unnecessary sequel of all time, Bioshock 2 may seem surplus to...
News Bioshock 2 Launch Trailer Is Properly (Properly) Amazing
This epic 3-minute Bioshock 2 launch trailer is properly the best trailer we've seen thus far this year
It's totally all CGI but it captures the game perfectly. We'd forgotten how subtley creepy the universe of Bioshock is too. If you weren't hyped for the game, you probably will be now.
News Hey, Check Out This Big Daddy Home Outfit
If you fancy rolling up to the Playstation Home bowling alley dressed as a Big Daddy then, erm, you can

News New Bioshock 2 Trailer Fails To Get Us Any More Excited
Bioshock 2's probably going to be awesome
But even with a trailer this explosive, we can't help but feel underwhelmed. Don't get us wrong, it's a good trailer, and the game looks good. But still, we don't feel anything for it.
News Geoff Keighley Shows You Some Stuff From Bioshock 2
Geoff Keighley's back folks
And he's brought tons of new stuff from Bioshock 2 with him. There are some mild spoilers in the embedded video, so watch at your own peril. Still, news on Bioshock 2 has been so thin, we doubt anyone will be passing up on this content. Plus Geoff Keighley's in it. Did we mention that?
News Bioshock 2 Detailed on GameTrailers TV This Week
GameTrailers TV haven't had a big ass exclusive for us to post about for a while

News Bioshock 2 Finally Hits Shelves February 9th, 2010
Bioshock 2 may be being developed by about 20,000 different developers, but those guys are finally gearing up to release the product
In fact, the game will hit retail fairly early into 2010, on February 9th. To be honest, scepticism is pretty high across the gaming sphere for a game that many argue shouldn't exist in the first place. We'll happy to...
News Bioshock 2 Multiplayer Seems Kinda Frantic Yet Still Kinda Dumb
When this trailer for Bioshock 2 kicked in, we remembered why we fell in love with the first game
That pseudo-retro feel packs the game with charm, and while it's not as fresh now as it was when the first game launched, it still had us smiling during the first few moments of the trailer. Then the gameplay kicked in and our smile drooped...
News Bioshock 2 Is Pushed Back To The First Half Of 2010
Take-Two have announced that Bioshock 2 will be pushed back until the "first half of 2010"

News Bioshock 2 Multiplayer Details Emerge
Did you know Bioshock 2 had multiplayer? Well it does
We're not quite sure how it will work in the context of a franchise that is entirely story-driven and has some, well, admittedly lame gun combat. Regardless, it's there and is being developed by Digital Extremes, the team that worked on Dark Sector. In the multiplayer you'll play as a Plasmid...

News First Bioshock 2 Gameplay Footage Reminds Us Why We Loved Rapture
Another exclusive from last night's GameTrailers TV with Geoff Keighley
This time Bioshock 2, which interestingly didn't have the "Sea Of Dreams" subtitle of the original trailer. The game looks extremely similar to the original Bioshock, right down to the HUD and narrative. However, the footage that is teased is a good reminder of why the...
