Jeff Parker at Publisher’s Weekly, Jonathan Case at 2K Games

Steve Lieber — Thu, 29 May 2008 07:22:11 +0000

PWCW: During your Agents of Atlas series in 2006-2007, you did a bit of viral marketing via the “Temple of Atlas” blog on the Marvel site. How did that come about? Do you see that as a precursor to the more extensive viral marketing that Marvel is doing now with things like Secret Invasion?

JP: Possibly, I need to ask them about that. As for more extensive… go back and read through what we did and see which one had more work behind it! We gave players a whole pulp novella online and two months of puzzles to solve, and had to coordinate with a dozen websites. And by “we” I mean “me.”

Laura Hudson interviews Jeff Parker for Publisher’s Weekly.

And at the 2K Games Bioshock blog:

To celebrate BioShock’s arrival to the PS3, I’m releasing a new wallpaper so you all can refresh your desktops with new a BioShock image. Hopefully this will help tide you over till the game gets into your hands.

This image came thanks to Jonathan Case…
