Bioshock 2: Out now(ish)

Looks like the teaser trailer for Bioshock 2 can be found after beating the PS3 version:

^^ Yes it is. Why even waste the programming on that? Can you give me something?? Is it a prequel? Sequel? It appears to be a sequel but who knows.

actyper and Rob V can not possibly be Kingdom Hearts fans.

I thought it was fine for a TEASER. I never played the first Bioshock, but from what I know I infer "prequel" from that.

The girl (little sister?) is holding a doll that becomes(?) a big daddy (maybe they already exist?) gazing out into the sea where that city is eventually built. The sand constructing that cityscape leads me to believe that.

I think it's a great teaser, because that's what it is a fucking cocktease.

I think it implies sequel.

Spoiler:
Little Sister longing to return to her home to see her protector again. Hence the doll.


Unfortunately that doesn't completely jive with the ending of the first.

See, I haven't played the first but I do recall hearing there would be an issue with a return visit

I added a spoiler for you, but I figure that if you are in a Bioshock 2 thread you are probably going to see some spoilers of the first.

Plus it's been a year already, what the fuck are you waiting on? Put the fake guitar down and pick up the controller already.

I'm not worried about spoilers nor was I complaining, I just don't have time for it with everything else I also want to play. My time comes in pretty short bursts anymore so I need games that cater to that.

I'll get to it eventually.

It can't be a prequel, can it? Who would you play as? Fontaine's men?

I thought I read somewhere that it is in fact a prequel.

Thank You!!

It's not a full on TRAILER or featurette so it's not supposed to be any more than that.

Yeah, I think it was just fine for a teaser. It's mostly for the people that aren't online all the time discussing games to see "oh cool, a sequel is being worked on!"

Yeah, that's not bad at all. I'd love to see a teaser for Assassin's Creed 2 that includes Altair. That's all I ask.

It looks like a sequel. The girl in the video looks pretty grown-up to me.

No kidding. I had no idea that Bioshock 2 was anything more than wishful thinking, so confirmation that it is coming makes me all

Then sit down for this one... they've already announced Bioshock 3 as well.


But to temper your excitement, Ken Levine is going to have limited involvement.

Is this still going to come out for the 360 about a year before the PS3 version?
