Take-Two files trademark for 'Irrational Boston'

Little is known about how the name change will affect the development studio but we are prone to wild speculation. So let's begin! Is it a sister studio inside 2K Boston? Is it to spin off 2K development studios under the "Irrational" name? And what does this mean for the other half of the original Irrational Games that's now named "2K Australia?" The official word from 2K Boston as of this morning was, "No comment," but we should expect to hear something "very soon." We'll update this post as news comes in.

Having met a few people from Boston, I can say that the name is apt.

Hey..... I'm from the Boston area, and I'm not irrational... all the time.

I thought that Irrational Boston was a reference to the Aqua Teen Hunger Force terrorism incident.

Good. I hated the 2K (Insert City Here). Developers want identities. Don't take that away.

I was hoping that this was a video game. Sigh.

It was tragic to see Irrational get swallowed up but now that they're getting unswallowed I can only hope that they don't come out as vomit.
eww...

Surely 2K Irrational makes way more sense.
