They are called 2k Martin. There is a story about it in Sept. edition of OBM (at least here in the States, don't know about England [which is where I believe you are]). It is a good article and gives me hope for that game. BioShock is the greatest, most clever game I've ever played. Anything by Levine will get my interest.

Perhaps the two Joes who worked on the original... I am keen to see what Ken comes up with next. From what he says about Bioshock, the "ambitious-ness" only really seed to happen towards the end of the project with the full story arc and the art design. It was never stood out like that from the beginning. Now perhaps he is under pressure to create something that pushes the boat out into undiscovered waters. Could his next game be received like Unbreakable was to Sixth Sense? I hope not. I would suppose that now that execs have confidence in his team's ability (it isn't just about Ken as he admits... Bill is a star! Go Freedom Force!) they will be prepared to accept and embrace any eccentric concepts they come up with. At least when Ken talks bout something ambitious you can assume he's not simply talking about the number of square miles of space or polygons per character. Good luck 2K Boston. That’s 2K Marin Blerk… not sure who is the lead on it though. Perhaps the two Joes who worked on the original…
