See "Fallout", "Thief" and "Deus Ex" for reference. Personally I think PC games smell. ;-) The “dumbed down” quip was just pre-empting what the PC fanbase would undoubtedly say about it should it ever come to consoles.

Neither of them were very successful, and despite the fact that so many of us count them among our favourite games of all time and would dearly love a third, how do you market something like that to a new audience?

Maybe if Warren scores a major hit with whatever he's working on for Disney he will decide to do one more of his old style games as a farewell to that genre, Disney certainly have the money to get the IP from EA. Blerk - System Shock is a cult game but a commercial disaster only someone with money to burn could ever make the game. No way the PC could be the lead platform if it was ever given the go ahead and FYI just because it's on a console doesn't mean it's going to be dumbed down can we knock off that crap already.

I'm not sure they could do it without Levine, though. There has to be the appetite for it. I’m not sure they could do it without Levine, though.

It seems pretty beloved among the PC crowd, so I'm fairly surprised they haven't knocked out a dumbed-down next-gen-console SS3 already, given the popularity of Bioshock. ;-) Do we know why EA have mothballed the license?
