I don’t know that we ever posted the first half of Irrational Games’ pitch forBioShock, so if you have yet to read it,do so now. It’s really quite cool. Otherwise, what I’m about to link out won’t make much sense.

The second half is now upfor your viewing pleasure, and I must say, it tells the tale of a radically different game than theBioShockwe played. From weird temperature elements, to a vastly changed opening scene, to the inclusion of multiplayer from the get-go — crazy, all of it!
