Take-Two CEO Confirms Red Dead And BioShock Games Are Planned
Options
Take-Two head Strauss Zelnick further confirms that the company intends to continue two of its most high-profile franchises.
Gamespot obtained quotes from Zelnick's presentation at an analyst conference earlier this week, and his comments contained good news for gamers.
Of the Red Dead series, he said, "I pretty much know the ones that I can a$sure you are permanent. It's obvious that GTA is a permanent franchise as long as we keep delivering this incredible quality; it seems quite obvious that Red Dead is a permanent franchise."
He also affirmed the company's commitment to BioShock, a series that's future has been a bit more hazy since the closing of Irrational Games, the studio that created the franchise.
Zelnick said, "We haven't given any color on how you should think about it yet except we do believe it's beloved; we think it's important [and] certainly something that we're focused on; something 2K Marin will be responsible for shepherding going forward. I don't want to say much else except to agree with you. I think there's a lot of upside in that franchise."

Red Dead Redemption was one of th he greatest franchises I ever played
R.I.P. John Marston -
Kinda just confirmed what we all knew really.

I want another Bully. I couldn't get into RDR. It had everything I wanted but I found it boring.
-
Co-sign another Bully
-
Never played bully never really checked for it but seen a bit of walkthrough gaming of it...would def check out a new gen version tho
-
RDR >>> Bully for me.
I'm glad 2K Marin has Bioshock. I like Bioshock 2 and it's multiplayer. -

The MP was meh but I'm also one of the few who like liked Bioshock 2 and don't understand the hate it got. -
Wonder if its back to Rapture for Bioshock?! wasnt a huge fan of the sky city in Bioshock Infinite. think it was called colombia or something. Love the dark eerie feeling of rapture.
-
I'd like another RDR but Bully would be better. Bully is the only r* game that skipped last gen (the buggy wii/360 remakes dont count) so its due.
Just make it more difficult. -
Jacks mission isn't over looking forward to it. Rip to the gawd john marston.
-
BioShock needs a new feel to it.
Already done the underwater world, done a sky world, gotta head off to a different planet or something in space.
