IGN Interviews Jon Chey from Irrational Games

IGN AU recently held an interview with local developer, Jonathan Chey, from Irrational Games Australia. Jonathan is credited as the project lead for BioShock, and the local IGN guys drill him with a variety of questions on the highly anticipated FPS shooter...

Jon Chey: Actually, this is pretty simple: BioShock is a shooter. It's true that it is doing things that no other shooter has done before, and that gets people confused about what genre it is. It's funny how genres work....

Developers get lazy and just follow conventions. I mean, why does every shooter have to go in a straight line from where you enter the level to where you leave?
