Bioshock 2 site – What the hell is going on?
Infinitestrike \| 10:26 AM on 03.09.2009	8 comments

I’ve been checking out http://somethinginthesea.com/, and someone has managed to hack the map.
This
hacked map was posted on the day of the site’s launch, and so far, all the updates match this map.

http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/260890/map.swf

However, the single unmarked X in the middle is not Rapture. If you remember, the co-ordinates of Rapture
were given in the first game (the flashbacks during the would you kindly reveal): 63° 2' N, 29° 55' W. Putting
the co-ordinates into Google map shows this:

What the X actually seems to mark, is the hypothetical location of Atlantis:

Also, the latest updates reveal that that the kidnapper can leap out of a 3rd storey building. At first I thought
the kidnapper was a lonely Big Daddy, but I really can’t imagine a Big Daddy leaping, can you?

EDIT: The site has updated again.

That is very interesting, but is it the Atlantis from the myth? Or is it a brand new Rapture built around the myth of Atlantis?

Also, the background sound from the site, sounds like from the inside of a ship. You can clearly hear the engine sounds and the waves crashing against the hull. The radio signals also implies that its coming from the captains tower. It could be coming from a ship who's trying to search for the glowing red lights in the sea? Maybe the ship sinks and you end up in Atlantis?

Also, about the leaping Big Daddy. Its rumoured to be a sleeker female version called 'Big Mother'.

It's big Mommy and my personal guess at Bioshock 2 is that you got to atlantis after one of those flares atack your ship ...

Infinitestrike

I read a description of what the "Big Mother" is supposed to look like, and it does sound like the kidnapper.

As to Atlantis, I'm not sure if that's a new Rapture which needs ADAM, hence the girls being kidnapped.

There are many different places that Atlantis could be though. Plato just said it was outside of the pillars of Hercules (or the Straits of Gilbraltar.)

It doesn't matter though, I'm obsessed with anything to do with Atlantis, so if Bioshock 2 is about the lost city, I'll line up day one :)

Grimhound

The "Big Momma" rumor is just that. I think they're taking it more to the genetic monster route with Bioshock 2.

about me

I'm Infinitestrike and I'm from the UK. My gaming history basically started with a Sega Mega Drive, followed by the PS1, PS2, Gamecube, GBA SP, DS, Wii and XBox 360. I guess my favourite games are the Metal Gear series, Devil May Cry series, Bioshock, Crash Bandicoot series (PS1), Animal Crossing, Pokemon, Gears of War and Halo.

My favourite boss fights are The End, Psycho Mantis and General RAM. My favourite levels to explore would probably be any of the planets in Mario Galaxy.

Currently playing:
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2
