Bioshock 2 trailer tomorrow? Plus some matlocking.
Projectexodus | 8:23 PM on 03.14.2009 2 comments


If you've been paying attention to the Bioshock 2 viral site, you've probably noticed that there is just enough space to put one more collection of notes on the map. I think this space is reserved for a window including a trailer for the game.

Also, in the newest batch of notes, it states that the investigator Mark Meltzer, is crossing the borders towards New Brunswick (Canada) and is going to stake out the area in search of the Big Sister. Now if you've listened to the background sound in the viral site, then you'll hear that it's coming from the inside of a ship (possibly in the captain's tower), judging from the engine buzz, intercom noice, and sounds of waves clashing against the ships hull. And as Mark has been tracking down the Big Sister in a U-shaped path from Ireland, to Spain, to South-America, to Canada, it is only logical that the next step is the ocean. And as most of you probably knew, Rapture is placed somewhere in between Iceland and Greenland. If you've noticed even closer to the background sound, you've noticed that it recently appeared some weird distortion. Could this mean that Mark is getting closer to the Big Sister? Maybe he gets attacked out in the sea by the creature, and he ends up in Rapture?

This could've made for an excellent introduction in Bioshock 2, if not for the fact that its allready been confirmed that the main character is in fact a Big Daddy, as is confirmed judging by the scans from this site. Playing as a Big Daddy sounds awesome and all, but am I the only one who fear that this sequel won't offer anything rivaling Bioshocks amazing storyline, and intead serves us a gimmick? The game is supposedly set 10 years after the first game (1970), meaning that the kidnapped girls are 9-12 years old in the sequel (considering the kidnappings took place in 67, and they where 6-9 years old at the time). If you look at the Little Sister in one of the scans, she looks nowhere near as old as that. This makes me worry that the game is going contain several lack oversights of important details, wich could prevent the games storyline to have as many holes as a swizz cheese. I guess they could cover it up saying that ADAM stops their aging.



And finally, remember the girl holding the doll in the first teaser trailer of the game? It's quite possible that she is the Big Sister, asuming that she must've been in her early teens at her oldest before she turned into that thing, and that the Big Sister dropped the said doll on a beach in Ireland (as explained in the viral site). The teaser also showed the buildings in Rapture rising in the sand, probably symbolising that she was in control of it (as confirmed in the Game Informer scans).

This turned out to be a longer post than I expected...

I don't like Bioshock: Bid Daddy either.

I liked the Soviet Russia shit better. Much better.


I will laugh if this Big Daddy main character crap turns out to just be a sort of "FlashBack/FlashForward" sequence.

Damn, I was really disappointed when the final entry was a blurry picture of a Big Sister.

That Game Informer cover really ruined the mystery.

Hello thar! I am an 18 year old Norwegian currently living in a small and boring coastal fishing town. I can't wait to graduate from high school, so that I can move to a more urban area to study. My hopes is that I'll be able to study in a foreign university (hopefully somewhere in the US).

When I was a kid I used to blablablablablablablabla....
