Bioshock could see upwards of five sequels!

While wary of "cashing in" on the franchise, Global President of 2K Christoph Hartmann suggests that Bioshock could follow the Star Wars saga, generating sequels as long as the story holds out.

Now of course he isn't guaranteeing five more Bioshock games, but Hartmann says that if the innovation is there and the storyline is strong, they would keep telling the Bioshock story until it's done.

What do you think about this?
I haven't played Bioshock yet, but I've heard so many good things about it, that I'm thinking of getting it for the Xbox 360.

Definately get it - it's brilliant

But get it for the 360??? Only if your PC couldn't handle it!

Gotta agree... it's a PC game for sure - if it can handle it.

I bought it for like three quid on sale but I won't be spoiling the experience until I have a beast capable of driving it. The four year old pc won't quite cut it!

I didn't make it through the demo.

Too scary.

But it was fun.

i have bioshock for the comp, i found the game to be way to easy but the story is amazing, think of it as the original fable for the xbox, great game and control system but a 2 year old could finish it, took me about 8 hours of play to make it thru it. as for it being scary ill admit there are points where ppl jump at ya and startle you but thats it, if your interested i think i still have a pirated version on my computer someplace i can see if i can dig that up and send it ur way

Wasn't there some talk of a Bioshock movie coming out too?
The possibility of limitless sequels and a movie in the making sounds like the beginning of another franchise about to be milked to death.

It was a good game, but a bit linear. I'm still waiting for Peter Jackson's Halo movie.
