Default Brian Reynolds - Shooter/RPG Dream Games

January 6th, 2015, 18:02
Bluesnews has info on Brian Reynolds Alpha Centauri Shooter & other RPG games.

A thread on Ken Levine's Facebook page discusses the uncertainty surrounding some game properties, as the Irrational Games boss says that he doesn't actually know who owns the rights to System Shock, the old-school action/RPG that inspired the BioShock series, though he confirms that Take-Two owns the rights to BioShock (thanks Jivaro).

The thread includes some interesting participation from other developers, as George Broussard suggests Kickstarting another "spiritual successor" to System Shock using the Unity engine, and there are also posts from Brian Reynolds. Reynolds says the System Shock rights sound as convoluted as the Alpha Centauri rights, and his follow-up explanation reveals his desire to be able to create a shooter based on the 4X strategy series he helped design at Firaxis.
I for one would instantly buy any of those games if they ever got made.

More information.

You loss then as I'm not a PC snob. I find enjoyment from all genre of games.

I wouldn't mind an updated System Shock game, but due to Take-Two owning the rights to the game now I don't see that happening any time soon.
