Designing BioShock 2’s Little Sisters
Like they did with the Big Daddies, 2K have released some concept art for BioShock’s tiniest denizens, the Little Sisters.
Unlike the first lot, which showed the initial designs for the original Big Daddies, these show how 2K Marin – the developers working on the sequel – have gone about depicting the Little Sisters for the second game. And they look… well, pretty much identical. Which I guess was the point!

We're going to play a game: It's called "Who is your Daddy, and what does he do?"

I prefer *dramatic voice* THE ORPHANAGE...... A movie in castellano that even in another language.. is shitty.

Bizarro Michael Jackson eh? I knew you existed!
And just to make it clear, I grew up listening to MJ and mourned his death... but a joke is a joke people.

@Dude From Dubai: Little girls just too little too little too little too little TOO LITTLE!!!
@(Zombie) Jolan: First comment in quite a while to get a chuckle out of me.
And I'm at least halfway happy to see that Bioshock 2 is going back on making the Little Sisters cute. When they first showed the trailer and they looked all happy and cute, I wanted to hurt someone. I mean, I'm still not happy about Bioshock 2, I fully expect it to crap on Ken Levine's vision, but at least not as much crap as thought.

Hey little sister what have you done
Hey little sister who's the only one
Hey little sister who's your superman
Hey little sister who's the one you want
Hey little sister shotgun!
It's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again.
@Tuggie: Big Daddies don't need underpants. That's what the tanks on their backs are for. And to eat, there is a hose attachment for the drill, which drills up whatever they want and the hose sends it directly to their stomach, no chewing required! Yum!
And yes I'm full of shit.
October is coming along very slowly.
Hey sister why you all alone?
I'm standing out your window
Hey little sister, can I come inside, dear?

@(Zombie) Jolan:
You wanna show me whats in the bag?
Were you planning to use these things?
@Ben Nadler: I'm slipping Mr. Bubbles! SLIPPING!
@Dude From Dubai: The worst part about the existence of that song (other then the fucking horrifying video to go with it) is that it's catchy as hell.
/Chris Hanson time
@Dude From Dubai: how did i know someone was going to make an oingo boingo joke. good job sir

@DolphinHugger: I dunno if there's any symbolism or significance to it, but the same blue butterfly was in the original Bioshock 2 teaser trailer as well.

Two questions cross my mind 1)how does a big daddy eat, 2)do big daddies have problems with underpants gnomes with plans to take over the world economy?
@NightBlood09: Exactly what I was thinking.
@DolphinHugger: For comic effect. I mean how the hell did that butterfly get to the little sister in the first place? Dive into the ocean, bust open a window, popped some enemies in the ass and found the little sister's finger as a perfect resting place?
The Big Daddies are bad parents. They need to let the Little Sisters get some sleep instead of working them like dogs for Adam or whatever they collect.
Much better than BioShock's Little Sisters IMO
@(Zombie) Jolan: You monster!
Mr. Bubbles?...
@(Zombie) Jolan:
THEY MAKE ME FEEL SO GOOD
@(Zombie) Jolan: Why don't you have a nap right there?
Her eyes are fittingly haunting for such a title.
Reminds me of that girl from that movie the Orphan
I like it. Well I mean, as character design goes. Not like I like little girls. I mean I don't hate little girls, I love them. Damnit, not like that. You know what I mean right? Hold on someone is at the door. Chris Hansen?! No I didn't mean that I 'liked' little girls, just that I *BRZZZTTTTT* *Thump*
What's with the random butterfly?

@Ash735:
Yes, don't worry, I am of the female kind.
@FWM: must be more responsible:
My thoughts exactly! I went as a Silent Hill nurse last year and the children's reactions were priceless.
Beautiful drawings!

As for the new look, I like it, but the "old" one wasn't bad at all.
@badbob001: I hope they make a Bioshock game set in the 80s just so they can include that in it.
Looks like the sister I never had.
*cries*
@Placentasaurus: They're probably malnourished and shellshocked from living in Rapture.

@Andrefpvs: He harvested THAT much from the little sisters? THAT'S GROSS! AND INCEST!

@Parsifal: You definitely win this round in creepiness with this video.
Everyone looks back on the "good ol days" truth of the matter is it was just as bad then, we just didn't have the internet to spread the news.

@Kanji08: Thats.. not really catchy.

@SketchyIndividual:
No kidding. Haha.

Their faces are too old for their bodies, and it is seriously weirding me out...
Didn't they say they were trying to make them less creepy looking in this one, since they're on your side? Because if so, then they successfully made them more creepy than in the first one.
They still give me the creeps!
@2c-b: To quote, loosely, Will Smith in MIB 1:
Wouldn't it be more frightening to see a little girl in those clothes hanging out at night on Halloween? I'd shoot her in the face.
@NitroAML: They hunger! Pretty sure Big Daddies are more like babysitters.

But you forgot the downsides of Government Inefficiency and general apathy. HE HAS A CHANCE!

@Ash735: But ... isn't halloween meant to be creepy, what with all the pumpkin heads and whatnot?
I wish we celebrated it in my country :( Free candy and lots of costumes ... the only time we get that here is at a rave.

I just hope the little sisters don't seem as generic this time round. They were all identical to each other in the first Bioshock, with exactly the same voice. After about the 3rd little sister, the illusion of them being a "person" and not merely an item in the game was gone for me.

Would you kindly show me some original big daddy pics?
@Ben Nadler: Then you're a big daddy!! because all they do is filter feed fish shit!! yummy!
@TheNocturnalSun: The older ones were really clunky looking. they definitely tightened up the graphics and design for this one.
@Maverickly: It's jack when he gets reincarnated. seriously, dont put it past the dogma of rapture.
@NightBlood09: is that movie any good

@Kanji08: In various cultures around the world, butterflies have been associated with journeys, the departed, and death.
@DolphinHugger: It's gotta be an Adam-infused butterfly, or something along the lines of it...
