Sisters of Rapture: first look at BioShock 2's Big Sisters
As was rumored this week via cryptic clues being drip-fed to viral site SomethingInTheSea.com, retailer GameStop's in-house magazine Game Informer has got an exclusive first look at 2K's upcoming BioShock 2, with its just-revealed cover image showing the new game's trademark enemy: the Big Sister.
The first game saw its narrative driven by the relationship between the vulnerable Little Sisters and their near-indefeatable Big Daddy protectors, which appears to continue in this prequel, albeit gender swapped. Little more is known about this game's storyline, apart from the viral site mentioning frequent abductions by a "skinny monster with a single red glowing eye."
New footage of the game is expected to land at this year's Game Developer's Conference. Take Two's recent quarterly report scheduled BioShock 2 for a release before the end of the year, but, like Beaterator, made no commitment on the launch platforms.

Jeez, that one giant eye is a bit creepy. The bubble for the little sisters is a nice touch, and, apparently, the little sisters have gills.

Guys, we have to stop looking forward to this game, because we all know we're going to get burned. It's going to be Deus Ex 2 all over again.
