This trailer was made way before the second even started to appear. They probably made this to tell you there will be a second one. They could of had some ides though with the little sister.

This game is going to be so fun! The graphics are nice as well.

I would say it is set in a different city so it doesn't matter if you completed it on the Good or Bad endings.Or you play as a army officer checking Rapture out seen as it would probably have been found after Bioshock 1 so i don't really know!!!

first off imma huge bioshock fan
loved the first one beat it multiple times...
my opinion for the plot of the second one is that the main character from the first one is returning with the assistance of the navy or something to destroy the city of rapture but they run into trouble... i like that one... sorta like jurassic park 2

when i first saw the words "sea of dreams" i thought that meant there was gonna be more than one rapture,andrew ryan's dream,which would've dissapointed me because halo did the exact same thing and i think they could've done better, but i'm hoping that it means some lost dream of an insane little sister with crazy plasmid powers that misses her home. Not real sure who the main character is though

I think that the Atlantic coast means that Rapture will be raised from the bottom to the top of the sea. the way this happens is that the main character reactivates the rapture self-destruct thing, but since no one really knew what happened, probably not even ryan since he probably didnt try it out, the floor bottom breaks up over time and eventually sends the entire city upwards because of the coral (that i am assuming) it is built upon. That is why the coral incrusts the bioshock 2 sign and is not continuously dripping with water. this happens after the main character dies, and one depressed grown up little-sister went to the atlantic sea with a big-daddie doll, and happens to see the once sunken city as it progressively rises out of the atlantic.

U will b a Little Sister, all grown up, your "father" just died, and u find yourself wanting to return to Rapture because you miss Mr. Bubbles (Big Daddy), as he was like a father figure to you, so you set out to find Rapture, but dreams of it haunt u, and u begin 2 c Rapture 4 what it really was, and should you get there, you rebuild it the way u saw it in your child hood. O, and you might get the same chain tatoo on your wrist.

But your "father" has set traps 2 make sure that no 1, especialy his "daughters", go 2 or return 2 Rapture.

Okay, maybe Rapture does resurface(obviously)and maybe there are still splicers on board. Which means that maybe the splicers try to get on land and kill the people on land. Or the corporation, or whoever built it, try to re-build it and end up using it as a research facility for ADAM. Except its like the usual evil test facilities, you know, people being tortured, bodies lying around, psychopaths, evil orderlys, maybe even salvaged Big Daddy armor which people try to use as weapons. And the Girl IS a Little Sister who learns whats happening and either she , or the obvious love interest or a "guinea pig" at the facility, try to stop whats happening down there and tear Rapture down once and for all.

the game has to be in rapture or a place like it because one of the biggest parts of the first game was the art style and claustraphobia

any thoughts

It definently has to be a little sister. The doll she is holding looks a lot similar like a Big Daddy. She is probably one of the little sisters who did not want to be saved and misses Rapture. She might end up being a bad guy in the game and probably wants to create her own city due to the games title, Sea of Dreams, she might also be a little crazy due to her head jerking back and forth a couple of times.

There is NO freakin way after the first part of the "series" that it is even feasible to proctor a guess as to what the 2nd installment is going to be about. Mark my words though, come the end of the year I believe all speculations as what to expect will all be wrong, and look for the next one to be even better. I mean think about it. If you can create something like Bioshock, you cant out do yourself. You can only add to it, and twist the story along. Either backward or forward. It took some seriously creative minds to forge Bioshock 1, so you know they have some wild, crazy shit cooked up for part two.

I'm not sure. But the good ending shoes the little sister grown up. Mabye you play her he dreams. and her memories of rapture. It is called Sea of Dreams. So yeah in short. After good endings, little sister memories of rapture, dreams, prequel showing her memories.

this is my conclusion, the game starts up,a the girl is being stalked by a splicer, the splicer says " am gunna splice you up little one" she screams "noo plese nooo". a big daddy comes crashing though a wall, devouers the splicer. the mr b picks up the girl they set of walking down a raod, and there is a load of splicers behind them. the screen then goese black and silen, then you here a scream."it was just a draem" the girl says, and look to the right and sees the big daddy doll.then the game starts and she gose looking for rapture and her past

thanks for reading - this is just my thoughts

im just spit-balling here cuz i've only heard of this a two months ago but didn't believe it until two days ago. i have read a few other sites yesterday and peiced them together to come up with my conclusion. (i don't care if you think this is copy-write or whatever) i know that the big daddy toy is the replica of the first proto-type big daddy ever made (you get to play as him in the second game) and that the girl has telekinesis powers from when she was in Rapture. the two must have met each other and something happened between the two, like the proto-type Mr. Bubbles saving her but then they were separated and she can barely remember him. the ten years pass and her powers start to emerge as she begins to remember Rapture the way she knew it and she wants to reshape and repair it into the best city in the world, just like Andrew Ryan wanted to do (i think). she returns to Rapture and becomes the "Big Sister" that takes, possibly, the duaghters of the origional little sisters and use them to replace the missing ones from ten years ago. The Big sister rules Rapture, but not for glory or greed, yet she is savage and merciless to any that dont follow her rules. As the first big daddy that is not just all brawns like the other models, you start to realise where this city is going to end and you want to stop the misguided big sister before she brings the distruction of the entire world. but i think that the blue butterfly crawling out of the barnicle means hope from unexpected places.

Alright...here is my guess from looking at the teaser trailer and reading the lyrics of the song used in the trailer.

I think that the girl was a little sister, but was saved and taken back to normal society, however, she never forgot of Rapture. She remembered the Big Daddy's protecting her and remembered the Little Sisters. She begins to feel lonely, so she goes back down to Rapture, trying to return Rapture with Little Sisters and keep the balance going. From reading the original website for the game, I believe she becomes the Big Sister who is kidnapping regular girls and turning them into Little Sisters to feel the gap of loneliness.

Now...as for reading into the trailer and what exactly the girl is doing. She's thinking or dreaming of Rapture, that much is obvious. The first line of the lyrics are Dream
When you're feelin' blue, therefore, she is upset from being taken from Rapture and so she dreams or thinks of Rapture. She has the telekinesis ability, which I read in gameinformer so she is building the city of sand, and you could have also of guessed this from her awkward twitching of her head. Another line of lyrics...You'll find your share of memories there
So dream
When the day is through, so this is a sunset, not a sunrise. The day is through, she is thinking of rapture. Last line Dream
And they might come true
Things never are as bad as they seem, so she is dreaming of having Rapture back to it's Big Daddy and Little Sister ways, and she wants this so badly, that they'll come true. And for your info, you play as a Big Daddy in the game, I think that this girl is a Big Sister. Which were just introduced to the newly made Bioshock 2.
