Now that season 4 of Video Gameography is full, and the Uncharted series has been, effectively...charted, it is off to new frontiers and recent faces. After saying farewell to co-host Ben Reeves within the final episode, we welcome GI Affiliate Editor John Carson to the podcast as the brand new co-host alongside the ever-present Marcus Stewart. Together with a series of friends, season 5 of Video Gameography can be an exploration and examination of 2K's Bioshock franchise.
So, we cordially ask, would you kindly comply with us into the depths of the ocean? We're headed to the town of Rapture, made by and for movers and shakers, unbound by the expectations and judgments of the floor world.
Developed by Irrational Video games (AKA 2K Boston) and launched in 2007, Bioshock reimagined and redefined what a contemporary shooter might be. On this episode, we discover the origins of the series stemming from the industrial failures of the well-loved PC franchise System Shock and the turbulent growth cycle through which Bioshock triumphantly succeeded despite. We talk about director Ken Levine's inspirations of Rapture and its inhabitants like the economic mastermind Andrew Ryan, the Large Daddies, Little Sisters, and far more.
Be a part of hosts Marcus Stewart (@MarcusStewart7), John Carson (@John_Carson), and Recreation Informer Affiliate Editor Wesley LeBlanc (@LeBlancWes) as we unpack the historical past and narrative of the primary Bioshock!
