You still remember that mindblowing trip to Rapture at the end of the summer? You better do - Irrational Games' Bioshock won the GOTY at this year's Spike Video Game Awards. Now Ken Levine, lead designer and story writer, gave 1up an interesting interview about his thoughts on Bioshock and it's success.
Several months are gone since the release and Ken is happy that Bioshock has sold already over 2 million copies and has been awarded dozen of times. He wouldn't have thought that the people love the game's story so much. Since the game came with an exemptional breathtaking storyline he is very pleased that gamers are open minded to new kinds of games.
The sequel won't be developed by 2k Boston, formerly known as Irrational Games, it will be developed by an other 2k team - 2k Marin. Hopefully they are as able as the guys in Boston.
Asked about his most wanted 08 game Ken let know that he is very excited about the new Smash Brothers title. His this year's favorite is the psp title J'eanne D'Arc due to
too many great games on the consoles.
Cause there was an
accident which circumvented his speech at the VGAs he used this interview to thank of course all the people who made this game possible and us, the gamers, for having "a much broader range of interest and intellect than anybody in certain parts of the media". That felt good.
So keep on bringing the intelligent blockbusters, Ken!
