Well, I just wanted to be perfectly clear that they are calling them sequels, not prequels.

It is a -little sister-? holding a -big daddy doll-? And then Rapture is -rising out of the sea floor-? The Sea of Dreams part means it might be before the New Years party were Rapture went to hell, or at the New Years Party
Actually I think you're about right. I remember reading somewhere that this was going to be a prequel. But, if that's true, then what exactly are we going to be killing/doing the whole game?

Maybey you play the game as another surviour a bit like the old halflife games like blueshift were you play thru the black mesa trouble as the security guard.

I'm scepticle after hearing it's someone else working on the game. Is it a whole new team?

I loved the first game though. Completed it twice. Only got the two hard achievements to get when I play through it my third and final time some day.

In response to the Bioshock movie questions: As of early 2008 they were definitely making it, with Gore Verbinski (of Pirates of the Caribbean fame) signed on to direct. I vaguely recall reading somewhere that it was going to be very green-screen heavy (think of the movie '300'), which seems to make sense given the setting.

http://www.joystiq.com/2008/05/08/bioshock-movie-in-developm...

As for Bioshock 2 news: The original was developed by 2K Boston/2k Australia. The sequel is to be developed by 2K Marin, with 2K Boston not involved in the development at all. Activision, the game's publisher, expects it to release prior to Christmas 2009. With regards to plot, a developer said that the game "is part of a prequel and at the same time is a sequel," which is maddeningly unclear.

* The publisher is 2K Games. Not sure how I let 'Activision' slip in there.

I can't wait for this one, but with the bar they set with the first one I hope this one doesn't go Halo on us story wise.

I can't wait to see what new battle innovations they will come up with, I hope they still stick with the tonics (don't see why not) and will be interesting to see what sort of new ones they will think up.

if it is as bad as the first one the second one will take suit and be a total failure also

If you didn't like the game, then say so, but don't ignore the fact that it was actually fairly successful and received a lot of acclaim in the process.

I noticed that nobody has mentioned the article in the March issue of GI has anybody seen that? It has a fairly decent amount of info there.

It says you play the game as the first Big Daddy ever (prototype). The issue # is 192 for all those curious.
Cause that's how I do it.

The new ones can't use plasmids though. I'm looking forward to mixing plasmids with the end of my drill. I just hope your vision isn't all screwed up like it was in the first one when you become a big daddy.

My hopes are that it is as good or better than the first. I was surprised to see that we play as a big daddy since the teasers made it look like we were playing as the detective that is investigating the Big Sister's kidnap victims. Also really hoping the original big daddy isn't as clunky as the big daddies in the first Bioshock.
