Make no mistake, it takes a village to make a videogame. But someone in said village has to order the pizzas on Fridays, and decide who's going to hold the Almighty Talking Stick during staff meetings, and also be willing to lock himself in the village smokehouse on weeknights until he has visions of lumbering Big Daddies dancing in his head. And that guy is 2K Boston's Ken Levine.
After collecting yet another armload of trophies at the Game Developer Choice Awards this past February for Best Audio, Best Writing and Best Visual Arts -- his trophy shelf must be about to buckle under the burden of all the awards the game has won -- you'd think Levine would be holed up in the Ritz penthouse, taking baths in Dom Perignon, eating candy and watching all the PPV movies he wants to watch.
But the one thing more daunting than making a great game is making a follow-up to a great game, and BioShock, in all of its eerie underwater glory, is going to be one hell of a tough act to follow.
Crispy Gamer recently caught up with Levine and sat him down on the Crispy G. Hot Seat. Here's what Levine had to say.
Hey Poor Player's James Davie Takes Us On A Bio-Shocking Deep Dive Into Irrational Games' Nautical Nightmare.
Gareth, Justin, and Michael at Skewed and Reviewed look at timely and topical entertainment news on their latest show including the latest video game movie and news of another in the works.
The movie was absolutely garbage !!!
BH needs to do better - since Halloween Ends - Exorcist , Freddy is Shyte - STOP IT !!!!
Dead Space recently received a popular remake that was faithful yet constructive, and the original BioShock is also deserving of this treatment.
No it doesn't need it. It was remastered in 60 fps last gen and still looks and plays great. Would be a waste of time, money and resources imo. It's games from 3 or 4 gens back that could use the remake treatment.
The games that need remaking are.
Resistance fall of man.
Motorstorm.
PS5 would produce something special.
There's been such an advancement in tech since the PS3 days. It would be awesome. DAY 1 BUY for me.
I would love this
Expand on the lore
Incorporate Bioshock Infinite and Bioshock 2 plot lines
Add room rooms or maybe even an extra area
Maybe new plasmids
Give Jack a personality and add voice acting, it worked for Isaac. Jack did speak at the start of the game so adding onto that and giving him convos between Atlas or Ryan would be great
Man could you imagine what bioshock would look like in ue5 with full raytracing, phwaaarrrhh.
