Coo over Sander Cohen's BioShock statuette

by Alexander Sliwinski { Aug 7th 2009 at 7:00PM }

GamePro has a photo set of the statuette based on BioShock's homicidal artist, Sander Cohen, given to 2K Boston employees by the studio's Creative Director Ken Levine. The sculpture was created by "Irrational" artist Robb Waters, produced by Patch Together and infused with mental instability by Fontaine Futuristics.

2K Boston is currently working on a secret project while 2K Marin (and a half-dozen other studios) try to get BioShock 2 out the airlock.

I liked Sander Cohen's character, his portion of the first game was one of the creepiest. I'd much rather have a statue of a Big Sister or Daddy though.

Seeing this statue made me realize that if this Bioshock is a prequel, then we'll probably be seeing Cohen at some point, which can only be a good thing (unless they screw it up, which they inevitably will).

it's not a prequel. if i remember right, it's set 10 years after the 1st. so no cohen (discounting flashbacks).

Aren't you supposed to play the prototype Big Daddy in Bioshock 2? Which would make it a prequel to the first right?

Lunastra78 (PSN: lunastra78) @ Aug 7th 2009 8:44PM

And if there is any chance 2K is reading this: Please make an ending that doesn't suck as much as the first. It was like watching an amazing Stanley Kubrick movie where Michael Bay had taken over the last 10 minutes in order to ruin the experience completely. :(

You play as the first Big Daddy who has somehow survived in Rapture all these years. I'm sure the actual story will explain more.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but Cohen doesn't die does he? I remember completing the Masterpiece, and having him look at it, but I don't remember his death.

Lunastra78 (PSN: lunastra78) @ Aug 7th 2009 9:19PM

You can kill him later in the appartments section, or at least I did. And then I took his picture. ;)

Yeah Bioshock 2 has been confirmed as a prequel. I can't wait to play as the FIRST big daddy!

BTW the Cohen statue is so sick, yet so creepy...I love it!

the main game is a sequel but the multiplayer is during the fall of rapture, at least that's what the last game informer said

i'll make it simple for people who still don't understand (lunastra & sting).

bioshock 2 = SEQUEL but you play as the first big daddy who is STILL LIVING.

prototypes aren't destroyed after the final versions are out. that's why you can still buy prototype versions of old cars for a good bit of cash.
