But it isn't since its just a contination of the System Shock series.  Its just that most people that played any of the Bioshock games never played System Shock 1 or 2 and therefore don't know how similar it is to those games.

Extremely different art direction between the two series. They look nothing alike?

OT: Can anyone confirm if MS owns the IP?

Well System Shock 2 was released in 1999 and Bioshock was released in 2007 no games that are released 7 years appart look very similar to each other even it they are in the exact same series.  But pretty much anybody that actually played System Shock 1 or 2 and any of the Bioshock games says that they are very similar.  Again L.A. Noire is a much more original game then the Bioshock series not to mention the technology used in making the game was very original and ahead of its time.
