    i embedded the video to start at the piece where he talks about this (ive embeded part 1 of the interview below for those who want to watch the whole thing)

    i wholeheartedly agree, and its so great to hear him of all people come out and say this, especially when the last game he has made was considered by many to be one of the best games this generation. he balances super serious and fun better than a lot of devs out there.

    combine this with the videos in this thread https://www.giantbomb.com/ken-levine/3040-33273/forums/ken-levine-reads-bioshock-fan-fiction-on-the-inter-1429652/#10

    this guy is easily turning into one of my favorite devs in the business, really hope bioshock infinite isnt his last game and that he has at least one more game in him for next gen systems.

    I appreciate him based on the good word of mouth on the internet but I personally do not care for Bioshock and have never seen this dude, well anywhere really. All I know is his name and face.

    Anyway, good on him.

    Ken Levine seems to be a rare example of a lead dev who gets it. Fortunately, he's in a position where his superiors just sort of let him run wild with his process.

    Really looking forward for Infinite next week.

    it should be an obvious fact, but i still really do hope bioshock infinite sells well.
