Creative Director of BioShock Ken Levine speaks on working with AI, the Creative Process, and what nearly didn't make it in the game.
GamePro: I played System Shock 2 back in the day, and I'm sure you have been hearing a lot of this here lately, but it really made an impact on me.
Ken Levine: Thank you very much. I hope we didn't disappoint with BioShock.
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.
Nice find MK, it's always nice to hear from one of the few really talented people in the industry.
I couldn't imagine Bioshock without Big Daddies, it would have been a very different game. Hopefully Ken's next game will be just as good as Bioshock was my game of the year.
I Hate your avatar but i love your comments, even if it they sometime seem like appeasement at times.
I personally was a little let down with bio shock. it watered down the RPG elements from SS2 significantly. And maybe its cause im older now but while ss2 genuinely scared me back in the day bioshock was just meh more gun toting drug addicts to kill. The one good thing about it was the ability to carry as many things as you liked! I remember back in SS2 i had an elevator full of guns, ammo and the needle power ups that i would dump all my un researched junk into.
The hybrids Moans of " the many sings to us" and "you dont sing the same song" still haunt my dreams!
Ken has created some true classic games that many of the console faithful never played which is a true shame.
Ahhh, Theif is a Great game. I never finished System Shock 2, my computer then couldnt really handle the game. I have yet to play BioShock, but maybe will get it on Steam.
