Game Informer cover confirms Big Sisters, return to Rapture for BioShock 2
by Randy Nelson 
{ Mar 10th 2009 at 6:50PM } 
The Big Sister looks to be as iconic as her predecessor, the Big Daddy, sporting interesting details including bows tied to her Little Sister "carrying cage" and what appears to be either an arm-mounted rifle or potentially -- not to mention more fittingly -- a large ADAM syringe.

Scary = Little Sister in the dark holding a syringe
Even Scarier = Little Sister as adolescent on period... holding a syringe
*shivers down the spine*

latin_trident you are misogynist scum

@Latin_Trident: I suggest you think about what you're going to type before you hit the submit button, lest you reveal your obvious issues relating to the opposite sex.

@Latin_Trident
I'm fairly certain you never been with a woman, judging by both your comments.

I like cookies.
just thought I'd let you know.

I know lots of people are worried about this sequel and perhaps I should be too (Bioshock was easily my game of 2007), but I just can't help but be incredibly optimistic about it.
Levine may not be at the helm, but he seems like the kind of guy who wouldn't let a shitty sequel come out and taint his good name.
HitNRun @ Mar 10th 2009 7:15PM
The fact that they've already announced a threequel and are making comparisons to Star Wars makes me think "uh oh" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioshock#Sequels ).
FemaleOrca @ Mar 10th 2009 7:22PM
son of a...
i hadnt seen this.
Still a tiny bit excited.
I'll always have Sander Cohen.
HitNRun @ Mar 10th 2009 7:25PM
True that, my...dear? Beautiful? Butterfly! Sorry, it took me a second to remember :P
HitNRun @ Mar 10th 2009 7:25PM
Wait, no! Moth. I fail
FemaleOrca @ Mar 10th 2009 7:40PM
That was real creepy at first. You, not Sander.
Well both.
And in the end, you both proved yourselves.
Turd Ferguson @ Mar 10th 2009 6:55PM
either way, it's just as intimidating as the big daddy drill
bluesky_v2.01 @ Mar 10th 2009 9:19PM
All I keep thinking is "damn, those are gonna be hard to kill"
Mazzy Star @ Mar 10th 2009 7:05PM
Was there ever any doubt?
BTW, that was a rhetorical question.

WE'RE GOIN BACK BABY!
ice~ @ Mar 10th 2009 7:06PM
I never got into bioshock :/
The Dark Wayne @ Mar 10th 2009 7:52PM
i beat it twice but i didn't really enjoy it either time
Hyams @ Mar 10th 2009 8:23PM
Batman is a masochist - confirmed.
ice~ @ Mar 10th 2009 8:29PM
sado-masochism ftw!
The Dark Wayne @ Mar 10th 2009 8:48PM
I would bear any burden for achievements, or you know, Gotham
Einhanderkiller @ Mar 10th 2009 7:07PM
I hope they give the gameplay more depth. The first one was pretty damn shallow, which I found very surprising given the team's past games.
Discotheque @ Mar 10th 2009 7:15PM
Yeah definitely. System Shock 2 is leagues above Bioshock.
But still Bioshock is no slouch, I enjoyed it and it had good atmosphere. Hopefully they don't run out of ideas for the second game. The prospect of returning to Rapture already has me worried. Please keep the quality of the first's story intact.
why not the LS2LS7? @ Mar 10th 2009 8:01PM
Completely agreed. More types of baddies. Fewer or at least more varied key card hunts.
And how about an inventory system so I can use the U-build it without making stuff I didn't really need?
Latin_Trident @ Mar 10th 2009 7:09PM
I really liked this game a lot! Probably one of the best story lines in FPS! Will they have 3 endings again? What if you get to play after the spliced people take over the submarine? that would be sick!
Jerk Face @ Mar 10th 2009 7:09PM
*poops pants*
Latin_Trident @ Mar 10th 2009 7:10PM
please change your picture. it really is annoying. almost like it is begging to be punched!
Jerk Face @ Mar 10th 2009 7:14PM
I'm very sorry to hear that my face displeases you enough to leave a comment to tell me about it. Perhaps you can go eat a dick.
melloncollie @ Mar 10th 2009 7:15PM
@Latin_Trident
Please change yours, almost like it's begging me to shove it up your ass.
Douche.
Latin_Trident @ Mar 10th 2009 7:18PM
Jerk Face: "Hey man, you are a real loser. You know what they say Sticks and Stones...."
*Jerk Face runs to bedroom crying and cries so hard, he poops his pants*
Latin_Trident @ Mar 10th 2009 7:21PM
@melloncollie:
only reason why I have my pic is cause it goes well with the name trident. then again the picture of jerk face goes well with... you know, jerk face.
Anyways, i like bioshock.
Turd Ferguson @ Mar 10th 2009 7:33PM
@melloncollie: please never change your picture. Props.
Latin_Trident @ Mar 10th 2009 7:37PM
@Jerk Face:
Hey man, thanks for considering what i wrote. Props on the pic. If I could remove my comments about your pic. I would. Peace.
The Baron @ Mar 10th 2009 7:39PM
He's a jerk why?
Oh, right. Because he reacted angrily when you told him you'd like to punch him in the face.

Markez @ Mar 10th 2009 10:07PM
Oddly enough, your old profile pic was probably more likely to make me want to punch you in the face. This one? I'd shake your hand and introduce you to my mother, as I'm sure she'd think you were a nice young gentleman. And then she'd shove a knife up trident's ass.
Saria the Cat @ Mar 10th 2009 7:11PM
Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!
*squeals*
Smile @ Mar 24th 2009 12:44AM
Mister Bubbles? Why is that strange woman screaming? Is she making an Angel?
Sir Buzz Killington( The Artist formerly known as Jakka) @ Mar 10th 2009 7:12PM
Big Sister? It does feel kind of feel like nickel and dimming of one of the most iconic enemies ever created in a video game,in my opinion, but I'm actually curious as to how they're going to plot this into the continuity.
On one hand, you'd have to explain why Big Sisters weren't there along with Big Daddies in Bioshock and on the other, Rapture definitely wasn't capable of creating them after the events of BioShock with the entire city going batshit crazy and trying to kill each other.
Jerk Face @ Mar 10th 2009 7:15PM
Ten bucks says it's a Little Sister all grown up.
Iwa @ Mar 10th 2009 7:16PM
The Big Sisters are probably the Little Sisters that returned to Rapture. They're kidnapping the girls from coastal towns to make them Little Sisters.
Sir Buzz Killington( The Artist formerly known as Jakka) @ Mar 10th 2009 7:18PM
Except that 1) They don't grow up in their spliced-up parasite infested forms and 2) where the hell do they get those fancy custom-tailored armors?
ARGH! TOO MANY DAMN PLOTHOLES! HEAD A-SPLODES!
Sir Buzz Killington( The Artist formerly known as Jakka) @ Mar 10th 2009 7:20PM
@ Iwa
Yeah, but weren't they pure ordinary girls at that point if the good ending is considered canon? Why would they just go back to 'that place' and try to restart it/sustain it, rather than letting it die and collapse?
This game is gonna keep me busy for months before it even comes out. Awesome...
HitNRun @ Mar 10th 2009 7:21PM
"On one hand, you'd have to explain why Big Sisters weren't there along with Big Daddies in Bioshock and on the other"
No, you wouldn't. You'd have to just put them in the game along with the radical new plasmids and a couple simple plot twists and stick out your hand and wait for $60. Which is people are worried about the new dev team approach and franchise outlook.
Latin_Trident @ Mar 10th 2009 7:31PM
I would love to have Big Sisters fight each other in this game! That would be so awesome. Just think of all of the hair pulling...ouch!
Iwa @ Mar 10th 2009 7:47PM
Sir Buzz Killington:
Well if the good ending is canon, it's still possible to have them go back. All were shown is glimpses of their future, but not their entire lives. It's possible that the events may have occurred in the gaps we weren't shown. Should be interesting, since the game is supposed to be both a prequel and a sequel.
Megadanxzero @ Mar 10th 2009 10:24PM
To be honest I don't get how anything could possibly make sense after what happened at the end (Well... Throughout the entire game really) of the first one (Especially going back to Rapture... lolwut?). Unless it's a prequel, but even then anything new wouldn't make sense since it should have been in the first one... I think a Bioshock sequel was just a pretty bad idea all round
Patriks7 @ Mar 14th 2009 2:52PM
I bet 500$ that there will also be a Small Daddy.
