BioShock 2 Easter Eggs

  • Xbox 360 | Submitted by Shadow Leon

    Jack's hands

    Just befor the fight with Father Wales in Siren Alley

    In the room before the power to the people station look to the right of the dour and you will see two paintings each of a different hand with chain tattoos on the wrist just like the main character of the first game (a.k.a. Jack).


  • Xbox 360 | Submitted by The Hoff

    Bioshock 1 plane reference

    After the first fight with a big sister, when outside underwater once you see the big daddy fighting some people through a window turn right and look up.

    After fighting a big sister for the first time and you are forced outside continue through until you see the big daddy through the window fighting, turn right and look up, there you will see the tail end of the plane. This was the plane you crash land in one bioshock 1.

    Getting the jump on Sinclair

    Inner Persephone

    Just turn back from the tower and head into the locked bathrooms. Pay $5 and then melt the frozen vent. Once through use the mini turret you picked up and throw it through the window. Saves time getting the code.

While she's collecting ADAM Splicers will attack, breaking the door to the next part of the Level. As you go through the door, on the left is a desk with an animatronic Andrew Ryan sitting behind it, and near a cabinet behind hims is a golf club.

    How to Easily Pass the Last Fight

    During the Final Fight

    If you have fully researched the Houdini Splicer, and have natural camouflage equipped, then you're in luck. Just before the last fight, stand still for a couple of seconds. You will go invisible. When you are invisible no one will attack you. Don't move because you'll become visible, and when you do everything will attack you, and you can't turn invisible while being hit. Eventually Eleanor will say she can fight, and at that moment summon her. She will distract and fight everyone, allowing you to go invisible again. Eventually she will kill everyone so you can escape.
