2K Games’ Ken Levine attended the Develop Conference 2008 In Brighton, England today, where he spent some time talking about development cycles, BioShock, and what a complete dick he is. Well, not a dick exactly…but definitely an implied dick. It started with his keynote address, entitled “BioShock and Awe: Immersing the Gamer in an Alternate World Without Drowning Out the Gameplay”, where he discussed the lengthening development cycle, roles of the development team, and his inherent twaticity. “My background, I’m kind of a pretentious twat.”
Self-deprecating humour at it’s finest! Ken could have just called it a day right there and the video game press quote gods would have been appeased, but then he went and talked to the folks at Videogaming247, addressing rumours that members of the BioShock team left because the didn’t like him.
