Don't see why really - they are still simply depicting the release date, but if fans are interested, I don't see it as an issue.

I suppose considering as well that the vast majority of fans would have been physically incapable of actually making it there, I just think this would be nice. Basically every competition that has been run relating to Bioshock has excluded international entries, so it would be nice to see something like this happen. (At least i think so )

Edit - But as was just mentioned, it's really the artwork on there that interests me, so I'd be very happy with them being re purposed as well.

I am assuming by your statement you didn't go? The fans that went would be pissed about this... that is what you are overlooking.


They might make similar ones but not the same... this is my strong opinion on the matter.

Considering I live in Australia, I did not

The fans would be pissed? The same fans that are offloading them on eBay for a mint I wonder (And I know that's not all of them, just pointing it out.)

I'm not bothered about them being the same - take off the dates, etc, I just think the artwork is lovely and I'd love to have them framed together and mounted on my wall.

I don't understand it was a special poster made for a special midnight opening event

Why on earth would you be able to officially get if from anywhere but said midnight event?

I mean it even has the date and address on it

Buying something like that officially from the irrational store seems ridiculous to me but I guess that's just my opinon

If they made similar ones it would be fine but they will not make the same ones.

They would change more then the date if they made some (size, date, wording... ect).

I was actually the first guy to list one on eBay, and it did go for a mint, and I wouldn't be mad.

Maybe because I'm a collector first, and business man second, but if I could easily get my hands on these things I'd happily trade the rate in which I'm selling them for the convenience of grabbing the set.

These are definitely sweet posters. At first I thought I would just unload mine to make back some cash from my game purchase, but the more I looked at it, the more I loved it. Now I'm here trying to find the rest!

As flatout said though, I'll eat my hat if they end up releasing the actual 'midnight release' posters ever again. The art I could see being re-purposed in every way. Maybe some other word or reference across the banner and side, but you'll definitely never see any with "Toronto", "Boston", "San Francisco", etc., across the top ever again.
