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.

Console Creatures writes, "The BioShock film at Netflix is still happening but with a reduced budget."
Remember there past attempts at game based show's i do heck i still remember that teenage resident evil trash fire.
It's 10 years too late for a BioShock film. The world of Rapture would have been perfect for a film. It's actually a good candidate for proper utilization of 3D, for increased depth rather than bullshit popping out of the screen. It could really show off the underwater city that way. But BioShock as a brand is so irrelevant these days that a film just doesn't make sense. Especially considering it would need a big budget and top notch effects to really take advantage of the IP.
i agree on the bigger budget. all the cgi they'd need for the background.
but i think it would work better as a show. a movie would be too short to establish the story
Netflix greenlights anything, so that shows me very little faith in the project. Enough to just crap something out as they're, more and more, known to do.
its where b movies go to live, its run by democrats , dont expect anything good from netflix
I'll laugh if it turns out to be better then the Borderlands movie
2K Cloud Chamber is ramping up recruitment with 30 job offers on its BioShock team. There's still no word on when the game will launch, though.
Actually looking forward to playing "Judas" from.Ken Levines development team .
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.
