When Bioshock was released in August of last year, everyone was amazed by the game's graphics and its ability to put the player into this detailed underwater atmosphere. Needless to say that the game got extreme amounts of praise spamming magazines and online blogs with "5/5 stars!", "Best Game of the Year", "9.5/10!". And while this made everyone happy, people started thinking, "Hey, could Bioshock make for a good movie?".

Though it's not set in stone, Joystiq.com recently released a post with a few notable points. They begin, "A reliable source within a major film production company has told Joystiq that the two have been getting along famously, with a movie adaptation of 2K's successful franchise already being discussed by the Big Daddies internally." Joystiq continues by saying, "The studio hopes to bring the fallen aquatic utopia of Rapture to celluloid life through extensive use of green screen technology, an approach not dissimilar to Legendary Pictures' interpretation of 300." (As long as we don't get extensive slow motion sequences like in 300. I'll be happy. Not that they were bad, just overused.)

Will it become a movie? No one really knows. But hey, out of the crapola of spins-off that comics and video games get, Bioshock, as a movie, definitely has my vote. Hopefully it pulls through. We'll be looking for any future updates and information to share with you.
