I would think that they could do a movie based on Bioshock, like set in Rapture, have plasmids, Big Daddys, etc, but I don't think you can do the same storyline.

The facts that you never see Jack's face, and know all the twists ahead of time, won't translate well, I think.

You do see Jack's face. In those brief flashes where they show pictures of him with his "parents", both as an adult on a farm, and as a baby.

With a story and environment as Bioshocks, it could make a very good movie. Very large emphasis on could, so heres to hoping they don't 'hollywood' it up too much

No, they're not...

They're going to give it to some retard , best choice Boll or Bay who's going to turn it into a super-hero zombie crap.

Unless they left it to Japanese. They could do some quality work. Compare JAP Ring and JAP Grudge to their US versions.

I'm kinda doubtful the game's story could transition into the big screen. A large part of the drama a player felt from the story comes directly from being in a first person perspective. It's hard to feel the same sense of violation when you're an outside observer rather than the one being violated.

It would be awesome if they used the same voice for Atlas!

I think it could work if they talk more about the city of Rapture and less about Jack. If they try to make a film about some guy going around killing things it's not going to go anywhere.

Rapture has a rich art style and a good back story that I think could translate well into film. It depends on who they get to do it, and what studio decides to take it on.
