Irrational Games-Take 2 Q&As
by Maarten Goldstein, Jan 10, 2006 7:10am PSTIGN, GameDaily and GameCloud have all posted a Q&A with Ken Levine, asking the Irrational Games co-founder about the company's sale to Take Two Interactive (announced yesterday). As for Take 2 dumbing down BioShock or doing anything else to limit the company, Levine says "Since the acquisition, I think they've been to our studio once. And once you hear more about BioShock and the other title, I think the last thing you'll worry about is us being creatively compromised".

Ken Levine: BioShock plus lots more development funds = better BioShock. Also, the kind of marketing support you get by being an internal team is just a whole different ball of wax.
Really I don't know what to take about this whole thing, it seems like 2kgames publisher sounds like they want to help along bioshock but they don't want to interfere with it.
Also it sounds like he knows george
My best friend works at a casual game publisher with direct distribution and they're smoking Cuban cigars lit with 100 dollar bills.

Ken Levine - No comment.
Gamecloud - Does the purchase by Irrational affect the status of long-in-development game The Lost or is that game officially cancelled?
Ken Levine - No comment."
Well fuck, with Bioshock's fate secure, those were the only two things I was interested in.
