The Future! Ask Irrational!

In the coming months we will be launching a video segment where you the fans get the opportunity to ask questions directly to the development staff here at Irrational Games.
When the time comes, we will be adding a new thread asking for questions, and we will then select a handful of questions and answer them to the best of our ability.
Stay Tuned!!

Should these only be questions about IG's games or can we ask the big questions like: What's the meaning of life? Why do bad things happen to good people? and Where does Tiger go from here?

The obvious is what's next? But I would like to know if there is a grand storyarch that has been planned out to be implemented in Bioshock to carry it through 2 and conclude in an epic finale in number 3? Please say yes to a number 3....I already know I want more after 2. I mean I still play the first regularly

Confirm or deny: Bioshock 2 will feature a plasmid that allows the player to replace his/her drill with a dog in a wheel chair, providing +5 to movement speed and +10 to charisma - a feature that Kev Levine demanded from 2k Marin before they began development.

Are we supposed to actually post our questions in this thread, or are you just telling us in advance that someday we will be asked to post questions?

Also, valcutio - the answer for Tiger is clearly, "Dog in a wheelchair".

In the past Ken talked about the probability of books based on the bioshock world. I would like to know if there is a possibility for some comic series based in Rapture?

I would also like to know if you guys are involved in the Bioshock movie project in any way.

Thank you.

mordukai said:probability of books based on the bioshock world.

Also wondering about this, I'd certainly be tempted to purchase a graphic novel if the right creative forces might be behind. But more on topic...can't wait for the actual question thread, looking forward to it.

I feel like I've been transported back to 1999. The site, the community, it's all so wonderful to have back. I look forward to the coming content and being able to support Irrational again with my $$.

You all deserve so much more success than you've received.

I was checking out some Moby Games stuff, and Ken Levine has a credit in Masters of Orion 3 as a special thanks. Any chance we can know what it was for?

SWAT game series with last one SWAT4 have a lot of loyal fans. Till now play it people who dont play any other game, even if they are newest. SWAT4 is still popular and lot of people love it because of gameplay and tactics.

My question is that Irrational Games is planning it in short or far future?

    Question one:
    So dudes and dudines, what have you been working on these passed couple of years?

    Is it past or passed in that sentence? The years are in the past. The years have passed by. Grammar is a slippery gal.
