<p>Ken Levine, one of the men behind Bioshock has made some comments on the influence of Bioshock, and what's next. In the first article Ken talks about how <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=204430" title="Bioshock Resuced Shooters at Eurogamer">Bioshock rescued shooters</a> by opening up new avenues for the genre.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I can pretty much guarantee to you that if BioShock wasn't successful, there never would have been another game like this</p>

<p>Levine also commented on <a href="hhttp://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/levine-the-goal-for-our-next-project-is-something-very-different" title="gamesindustry.biz">2k's next project</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>And we all looked at each other, and these guys have worked together for maybe six or ten years, all the senior creative guys on BioShock, and asked what do we want to do? Do we want to do something a little more straightforward next time, or do we want to swing for the fences again? To paraphrase, we decided to swing for the fences.</p>
