'Bioshock 2' Without Levine?

[Demon_Skeith]

Rumor on the internet: The as-yet-announced-but-inevitable sequel to Bioshock is being developed without the creator of the original game.

Swiped from mysterious-insider blog Surfer Girl Reviews Star Wars:

2K Boston is still recovering - a good chunk of the BioShock team did not want to work with Ken ever again, and 2K definitely understood the sentiment and let them set up a new studio so that they can make Bioshock 2, leaving Ken with Project X. A good chunk of the other senior 2K Boston people who were sick of Ken but didn't move to San Francisco ended up scattering to other AAA developers instead. In Quincy, they're essentially rebuilding a team from almost scratch again.

The rumor and speculation just never ends, does it? We can't help but fear a Ken Levine-less Bioshock 2, so we hope this turns out to be not true.

Ooh, BioShock 2 you say, I can't wait to get it. But again, without Levine, it won't be the same game and possibly won't be as successful than their first BioShock game. I'm disappointed things didn't workout for Levine & 2K Boston. If things would've worked out, this kinda thing would not happen.
