BioShock Infinite contest aims to get your name into the game

by David Hinkle on Apr 8th 2011 7:30PM

Remember Sinclair Spirits, seen above? It's an establishment in BioShock, named after Irrational Games staffer Scott Sinclair. Developers get to do that kind of thing all the time in their own games and now Irrational is opening up that opportunity to one fan in BioShock Infinite.

A missive on the developer's site details the opportunity, which will see the name of one lucky winner transformed into "the namesake of a building, a character, a business –- whatever our artists come up with" in BioShock Infinite. We imagine it'll be cool, unless what they come up with is "Poopy Bill Smith's Poop Emporium" or something like that. But, hey, the folks at Irrational are cool, so we wouldn't expect them to do that. We're like 90% sure. Okay, 80% absolutely sure. Alright, we'll just play it safe and say there's a 50/50 shot.

You can submit your name by hitting up this link here and dropping in the appropriate info. Best of luck!

Poopy Bill Smith's Poop Emporium was Dustin Hoffman's finest hour, thank you very much.

"Willy Wonka chocolate factory"

@Senor Whopper wait need to save my ass from lawsuits, how about "Billy Hatcher Egg Factory"

@Senor Whopper

they need you on the team over at irrational

"The Rebecca Black Complex"
No one has ever lived to say what lurks within those halls. Have fun, fun, fun, er fun.

this would be cool ... if my last name (even as uncommon as it is) wasn't already used in the first game for the fish company. :|

If I somehow won this contest I would be as happy as I can currently imagine. I'd sacrifice a human baby.

Dr. Johnny Skinz’s Disproportionately Rambunctious Polar Express Machine-head.

I win.

I was stoked to hear the audio diary about "little donny" on new years eve in bioshock2

they announced this game WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to early. Good thing i still have no idea what the plot is about.

@PR0F3TA
Can't be much different to the first one.. and spinoff... lonely men in diving suits, who wander around with little girls, and protect them while they earn their keep from addicts.. .. .. waaaiit a minute.. O_o

@PR0F3TA Read Ayn Rand. That should give you the plot....again.

My first name (Ryan) was already in the first game. lol

Nice! I entered, though I probaly won't get picked due to my last name (not willing to give out my info, but it's not the most badass last name). Oh well, still a day one buy :).

Would suck if your name was Shithead...

This is the perfect opportunity to get "Aloysius Q. Gildebrandt's Monocle Emporium" off the ground.

I'm guessing "J. Fritzl's Storage Solutions" won't make in into the game.,,

I'd want something amusing from my name.. be a water theme.. maybe get an achievement with my name on it

I too have a weird name that they wouldn't want to implement into the game. but if I won I would be absolutely ecstatic

We should all submit Ted Tyson's Toyota Town.

@The Tim
I scanned the comments hoping to see this one. Thanks, Oh Great Tim, for submitting this. I second the nomination.

looks like the the site is down. I get a 404.
