If you'd be willing to send me the planetickets..
Anyway from the questionaire it looks as if the testing will be Xbox360..?
Is there a reason for that..? (Considering the whole port(yes/no) issue.. )
I don't know how many of you are in the NYC area, but I thought you'd appreciate being given a shot at this...
We’re looking for people who can come and play BioShock in the 2K offices in SoHo. We're looking for people who can come play for 3 hours a day, for 3 days in a row. You'll get $10 an hour, and get to play 9 hours of BioShock. Testing will start this Wednesday, so please fill out the questionaire below if you are interested.

$90 and Bioshock?
Pretty sweet deal.
didn't know that there was a 360 port for WoW
I have a quick question, are you excluding people who work in market research?
Thanks!
I'm not the one making the testing decisions. You'll have to apply and ask.
Already appliedJust wanted to make sure.
Thanks for the opportunity!
I live in the area, but my schedule is 100% full.
Let me know when the PC testing is though, I'll hopefully have free time then!
almost 100$ to play BioShock... it boggles the mind ;~)
Guys, the thread title is not "Who doesn't live in NYC and would like to uselessly lament this fact?"
Will the testers be given a mention in the game's credits?
I live in NYC, but I just left for a trip!
But I'll be back after Feb.
Is the PC testing happening in NYC, as well?
If so, maybe I can be there for that.
can't you read between the lines? they own this thread now.

*Rolls eyes* And the point of the quoted post is...? Some people really love any excuse to fuel their mindless ethnocentrism and stroke the associated portion of the ego, I see. It's kinda sad when this wasn't even provoked in any way.

I actually do live in the NYC area... hm. Interesting opportunity. Pity that unless testing can go from 6 to 9 PM I couldn't attend even if I wanted to, heh. Lucky you to whoever takes it though.
I wonder if you'd have to sign an NDA...

However, I think it is excellent that the community is considered. I must say that I haven't cared about Take 2 Interactive before, but this gives a very positive picture of the company. I hope I can be part of the PC testing.
Good PR work.
Totally deleting every single one of the "I DON'T LIVE IN NEW YORK AND I CAN'T PARTICIPATE LOL" replies because Vigil hits nails directly on their heads -- as is his wont.
Please don't muddy up the water with superfluity (hahaha I make up words again)
