2K Boston's 'next big project' is a 'shooter'

swat 5 would be nice i think that swat 5 is a good game series

WE NEED SWAT 5!!!

i love big things. they tend to be sustancious and, you know, big.

yes because SWAT 5 would be substantially more ambitious than Bioshock.... /facepalm

Make SWAT 5 PLEASE our community needs it

@Anteraan: I think you just contradicted yourself. Shooters can go in other directions they haven't explored yet enough.

I hope it's SWAT 5!

You're the man Ken, you're the man.

Good god, when are gamers going to realize that the shooter genre is played out to death? The main reason Bioshock was soooooo very good was that it was a shooter with THINKING.

System Shock 3.

Ken Levine is a gaming god. BioShock was (and still is) phenomenal. Easily one of the best games this generation thus far :)

Wow...because shooters are soooo uncommon.......

I hope they don't make X-COM into a crappy doom clone. That would be really super gay

swat 5 PLZ AND THANK YOU!

SWAT 4 RULES

i guess there wouldnt be this much hype over the darkness sequel? starbreeze said they werent working on it. word was it went to 2k iirc. dontcha hate searching news archives?

ya 2k boston! representin bean town go red sox

2K Boston?

2K shooter, I'll have a look when it comes closer.

its bioshock 3, my cousin used to work for 2k boston, and before he left he told me bioshock 2 wasn't being made by 2k boston because they were working on bioshock 3, i don't know if this story is for bioshock 3, but I do know that they are working on it.

SWAT 5 would be awesome. SWAT 4 was great on the PC but none of my mates had it to make the most out of the experience. If they made a SWAT 5, hopefully it would be on the PC and Xbox 360/PS3 so people can choose what platform would have their friends playing it. SWAT 4 was alright in single-player but co-op was just intense, walking into rooms with your squad of real teammates shouting "GET ON THE FLOOR" while filling the room with tear gas. It was a challenging game that rewarded the player for trying to get the terrorists to surrender, rather than just shooting first asking questions later. SWAT 5 would be awesome.

lol so many shooters are on the market, i hope they come up with something that will rise above the crowd, then again... they probably will.

its a new ip probably since he says its way more ambitious. i dont want another xcom even though im a fan.

i wonder what it is!

oh wow... a shooter.. i'm excited.

Please be X-COM!!!!

If it's not system shock it better be a new ip, if what they're working on is more ambitious than bioshock, I doubt it's x-com or swat. I'm really hoping for a system shock game or maybe some kind of open world game like fallout 3, another post apocalyptic game would be cool.

As long as they have shock in the name then I'll probably buy it. And if it doesn't, if better kick butt.

even more ambitious than Bioshock? That could be good, but also possibly bad if they don't keep their focus.

Another System Shock (not Bio, would be nice...)

Another project, maybe its the darkness 2 if not i am not intreseted.

Read the thread. Another 'shooter' that is System Shock is another BIOSHOCK! If they had daid they were working on an RPG, THEN I would say I hoped it would be Bioshock! The Bioshock world is totally wasted as a shooter! As an RPG imagine how they could really bring the world alive! You could have friendly factions, better stealth options, separate quests, better replaying/value and a much bigger 'Bioshock' world!

It's an action title. Why get excited about ANOTHER shooter. I want another x-Com or another SWAT, but neither of those games were 'action games' and X-Com or SWAT 'action games' are not something I am going to be interested in.

I vote for SWAT 5.

SWAT 5 would not be bad. I hope that they improve the AI a bit then.

Oh please let it be SWAT 5!!

If another FPS enters the market then I am going to shoot myself... the irony.

yeah yeah you'd better hurry up with bioshock 2 then do something about your 'next big project'.

Bioshock is one of my favorite "next gen games". I'll keep my eye on this for the time being.

Glad they're looking for new level designers. The level designs for Bioshock were that game's only downfall (but geez, what a big freakin' downfall). As long as we're not stuck alternating between two identical, boring apartment complexes toward the final two hours again, it should be an improvement.

Hope it is just as good as Bioshock was

Given the unfortunate (but unsurprising) success of BioShock, I'll certainly not be bracing myself for anything I'd relish coming from the studio. Still, the developer can't be faulted for giving the masses what they desire...games that won't hurt anyone.

I would love to see a new big hit shooter

Cool you can never have too many shooters! Not to mention its made by the people who made the greatest shooter of all time, Bioshock:D

I LOVE how everyone has to say "oh another shooter..." Since when was this bad? Sure there are a lot but not one person said that about COD or the multitude of Halo games coming soon. 2K Boston obviously likes quality if you take Bioshock into the picture, so you know it's going to be good. And if they say its going to be "big" then you bet your ass it is :)

SURPRISE!!! A shooter....well who doesn't need another one of those. Yeah right, I will be there for these guys day one. I don't even need to know anything about the game. I would buy it blind without though. 2K Boston and Kenny are awesome.

I haven't played a good X-com game in I don't know when. I wouldn't mind seeing something along those lines. btw, GS, I liked X-Com Enforcer well enough. It wasn't ground-breaking or anything, but it was fun!

System Shock 3 or a Reboot of System shock 1 please. (i.e. Doom 3)

Please let it be SWAT!!!

i hope its SWAT
