There's Something in the Sea and it's BioShock 2 info

I'm always late to the party whenever someone starts an ARG, and it's so hard to get caught up once the thing has momentum. I want in on the ground floor for this one. That's what this is, right? Too bad there's so little to go on.

OK, I don't get why everyone thinks this is a prequel.

If the girl (who looks way older than the little sisters in Bioshock) is holding a doll of a big daddy, that means that she has seen the big daddies before. Therefore, the girl on the beach is a former little sister. Due to the content of this site, a big daddy comes back to take her to rapture. Sure, the big daddies were kinda lifeless, but they were certainly attached to the little sisters and would go to great lengths for them. So, (spoilers) after Jack saves the little sisters at the end of Bioshock, a big daddy comes back to "save" the "kidnapped" sister. Makes perfect sense.

What makes ZERO sense is that there could possibly be anything that gives the impression of a prequel.

All right, Big Daddys' are being sent on land to kidnap children. Sounds like an awesome premise for the sequel.

It seems to me that the photo and the letter were sent to a private investigator. This investigator is looking into the kidnapping written on the newspaper clip. I would assume that during the time it takes for the release of the game that the site will continue to fill up with more kidnappings happening all throughout the Atlantic coast line. Looks like this site my get interesting...

I've still gotta play Bioshock 1. The demo was pretty cool - I'll try to rent it before the sequal comes out.

Well, with it saying 2/20/67, I imagine it takes place 7 years after Bioshock 1...still don't know where they would go with it.

Looking at it, now I have to think, how does the title of Bioshock relate to this viral. I mean yes, duh, the word sea should be pretty obvious to us who played bioshock, as that was what we saw when we walked around rapture in the windows.

Though why is it Sea of Dreams? What does the word Dream mean with bioshock. I mean rapture was a utopia- a demented one of course, but if it is considered a sea of dreams, that means the whole sea.... Maybe there was more to rapture than what we originally thought! Maybe we only got to see the main area of rapture, or of course a secondary location(Like a secondary Halo on a certain FPS.) I hope 2K doesn't do that of course, since it would tick me off.

But think about it, if you are going to have supposed "Big Daddy" attacks throughout the whole Atlantic Coast. they have to be coordinated.

Also with the map that shows the other dates, it is physically impossible to get from one side of the ocean to the other side, WALKING ON GROUND FLOOR, in less than a month. Of course these are Big Daddies, but even then it is too huge!

I think they are placing these girls in a hub that directs them to other Raptures.

My opinion: Congratulations people, you saved(Or killed) the Little Sisters in ONE Rapture, but hell, we didn't even get to save the others from the many raptures lying around the ATLANTIC.

Also that center could show the main Rapture controlling all Raptures.

Well if I remember correctly, the big daddies rely on the little sisters for adam, and in turn protect them. No little sisters = no adam, and like any junkie, they are going through withdrawals. Explains the skinny (weakened?) big daddy kidnapping the child.

Lol @ all the speculators. It's a game... that has a Big Daddy in it... :O!

Sounds like the Big Daddys are coming to shore to fetch the Little Sisters. Awesome.

This game is gonna rule. It'll be System Shock 2 all over again.

OMG its Bioshock DLC for LBP! ;3

If it's a sequel they'll have to declare one of the endings "real". When I heard of the sequel I hoped the bad ending would be the real one, so the protagonist of the first one could be the antagonist of the sequel. What a twist!

So what were really looking at is Bioshock 2 set in Atlantis?

http://helldescent.com/wp-content/uploads/bioshock-2-atlantis-world-map.jpg

Give up? Here's the answer:

That spot is not Rapture (Rapture was more North).

That spot is Rapture 2- the creation of Andrew Ryan's Vita-Chamber'd doppelganger. He is recalling the Little Sisters using the same conditioning that he applied to the main character in Bio1.

The spots marked on the map are the last known locations of the individual little sisters before they "disappeared."

Forgive me if anyone has already commented on this, but what do you guys think about the unusual footprints discovered on the beach by Jeremiah Lynch? The tread mark is quite feminine, if you ask me, and not particularly large. But what to make of the elongated toe?

I just finished playing through Bioshock for the 5th time last night and have to say, I was pretty obsessed BEFORE I found somethinginthesea.com, but now I'm literally shaking with anticipation.

Just wanted to let anyone who checked the site out earlier, THE SITE WAS UPDATED. apparently the creature has odd shaped feet? didn't notice that about the big daddies, hopefully someone studied the game more than i did

I wonder why the 'X' is on Ireland? Fontaine's Atlas accent was Irish..... Expect more alcohol n B2

ive had the page open for awhile now and ive noticed that there seems to occasionally be a conversation over the radio. can anyone make out what they're saying?

Page has been UPDATED folks!

Obviously, someone is trying to recapture the Rapture of old... Jack saved all the Little Sisters in Bioshock 1, leaving no more gatherers to collect ADAM. Something about the DNA of little girls between the ages of 5 and 8, say, make them the best gatherers. If a nefarious someone wanted to regenerate Rapture or establish another a Rapture-like world, effective gatherers would be needed.

Either that, or some emaciated Big Daddy is feeling nostalgic and lonely...

The date and location of the events of Bioshock one are :

1960
Mid-Atlantic

Dont believe me? You didnt play Bioshock, it says it in the opening sequence, so shut up.

All the dates on the new website are in the late 60's, like 67. So I think its FAIRLY SAFE to assume that its a sequel.

Now I am going from memory, but I am sure that at the end of Bioshock SPOILERS ALERT

You see the main character, or who you believe is the main character, grow old with the Little sisters he frees around him. So we can probably assume that the girls being kidnapped arent the little sisters.

END SPOILERS

Pretty much each location on the map on somethinginthesea.com is on the Eastern Atlantic coast, or are connected to it. Way I see it, alot of the scientists and characters in Bioshock were European, so some naughty European scientist is reviving rapture, using healthy, non terminally ill children to continue the scientific bollocks that had Rapture buggered up in the first place in an attempt to perfect it and continue Adam Ryans dream in Rapture.

That is all

ok this has nothing to do with any new ideas about B2 but...

on this picture: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/260890/map.swf
one of the dates end at 9/29
could this be the date for when B2 will be released?
its in october and 2K said expect it around october-ish...
so what could the other dates, besides the facts of when the girls are kidnapped and where they were kidnapped, could these dates mean??
could 2K be releasing new hints at their site, somethinginthesea.com, and any other website?

could we finally expect that gameplay vid all of us BioShock fans are desperately waiting for??

Visit my blog, http://viralr.blogspot.com to read up how my theory is being reached with each piece of evidence gathered. I really think this one is going to be good and leave room for a series

I suspect somebody at 2K is a big Nirvana fan. 2/20/67 is the birth date of Kurt Cobain.

Who the hell is this jackklassen2003 guy? The references he makes have no relevance to the game whatsoever. He obviously is a lunatic. First of all why would you even admit to playing a game you absolutely hated and were disgusted by? Whatever game he was talking about it definitely was NOT Bioshock. He needs help......MENTAL help.......

Regarding the trailer....I'm not exactly sure what to make of it. The first game was so mysterious about a lot of the backstory that it could be anything. I was thinking that the girl in the trailer was one of the little sisters a little more grown up and that maybe (based on the Gameinformer magazine reveal) some of the little sisters from the first game become Big Sisters as replacements for the Big Daddies from the first game. Whatever it is I'm really looking forward to a return trip to see more of Rapture. The first game was awesome!

I think Game Informer had a new mag with a new pic of the Big Sister. Looks pretty cool, except that the Little Sisters are in a cage which is attached to the Big Sister's shoulder.

Would you kindly stop speculating?

Little Big Shock?

Well, the big sisters are obviously replacing the big daddies. My speculation is that you'll have to kill the big sisters to get to the little sisters that she carries around in cages. They won't be wandering around next to them like they did the big daddies. Seems like they're taking more precautions to protecting them. Just as they've gone to such great lengths to kidnap little girls all over the world to make new ones. They all look alike just like the little sisters in part one did. I could be WAY off, but whatever the case is, I can NOT WAIT for them to release this game.

The red light in the sea is the "Big Sister" the insane little sister of the girls who leave with Jack in the first game.She gone to the only home she really knows and loves and returns to topside to collect little girls to turn to "little sisters".She is what the notes are about.Shes turned Frank's factory back on and got the adam flowing in Rapture once again, "Jacked herself up on meds and running the city keeping a watch as HER city lives on,but she sees a place that is nomore as the city she remembers as a little girl before its ruin.I know Jack might not make it in finished bio2,but WE will be the first "Big Daddy Ever Made" in this game.Shes pissed him off and he wants her dead! And I wish people would understand that this is pretty much a movie in a game and movies and games alike often set fires under people like that of a normal house fire and can blur the ideas that artists like the creaters of this beautifully designed masterful movie in a game and reading between the lines to much,trying to blame games for the kids acting and living out games in real life when the parents are to read the ratings of games before they are played by the kids in the first place weather bought or barroaded from friends.THE PARENTS! So Jack Thomson needs to fight another fight and let the parents and rating system do THEIR jobs! Enjoy games like this and loss yourself in games like this as they don't come by that often.So please find the beauty in this game and leave it at that.

And by the way,the footprints in the sand in that of the "Big Sister".She is the baddest "Big daddyish Little Sister"A slim but heavy person in a Big Daddy like suit.Shes taken a sub back to Rapture and made it live again as shes made a suit like that of the Big Daddys and got NEW Little Sisters for the remaining lonely Big Daddys to walk though Rapture with once again collecting Adam and make things what they were when she was little.And the whole "Sea Of Dreams" title is do to HER dreams of returning and making Rapture what SHE remembers of her BEAUTFUL childhood home that is nolonger beautful but though her insane eyes,Its as beautful as the first day she saw it.She will make her dreams come true."A Man Chooses,A Slave Obeys"!!

Is that a sackboy/girl being dissected?

storm111083, it'd be really amazingly awesome if your comments made any sense. Maybe you should try proof reading once in a while.
Everyone seen the gameplay trailer?? Can't wait to start bull charging those goddamn splicers with a Big Daddy Rivet Gun. Woohoo!
