BioShock 2 Posters Reveal a Hidden Secret

[Wolfram23]

That. Is. Awesome!

 

[GamingAwesome1]

Wow.

That's..... igenious.

2K games just earned some serious gamer credit right there. Who thought of this? They deserve all the cookies in the world!

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

That's pretty neat..I love 2k just a little bit more now...you clever bastards

 

[Cosplay Horatio]

I am shocked and amazed that 2K made non-digital easter eggs.

 

[Sieni]

Now THAT is cool. I would've ordered the Collectors edition but I was too late. :/

 

[brunothepig]

Oh my god. 2K, will you marry me? Hmmm. Maybe I won't get this off steam...

Does anyone know if a glass panel in front of the posters would stop the blacklight from working on them? I was going to get these framed, now I want to find a way to put blacklights into the frames on them.

I imagine there are specialty stores that sell special lighted frames that either come with blacklights or can just switch out the bulbs.
Or craft your own, and then show us the result!

Now that is quite exciting. But I now see a rush for people trying to do the same to other posters.

Looking at the videos and pictures, you can see that the posters have all been framed. The big purple line you can see here [http://s844.photobucket.com/albums/ab6/BioshockFan52/Hidden%20Message/?action=view&current=IMG_0779.jpg] is actually the reflection of the blacklight in the glass.

sadness is drowning my body, i did not by the collectors edition ....... BUT, on the otherhand, this is really really AWESOME of 2k to do this.

 

[Andy Chalk]

This makes me SO glad I caved in and sprung for the CE.

I also think this really reinforces what Michael Pachter said about Take-Two awhile back regarding their commitment to quality and attention to detail. They miss ship dates, bleed money like crazy and probably drive their investors absolutely nuts, but when it comes to making games and actually catering to gamers, they're pretty damn solid.

 

[tsb247]

That is the most creative easter egg I have seen in a LONG time!

 

[andrewbrownster2]

Wow, all of the PR and advertising for this game has been brilliant [I'd say better than Dante's Inferno].

I hope that advertising like this becomes more common in the months/years to come. =D

 

[Brad Shepard]

Leave it to Bioshockto freak out potheads

 

[Enzeru92]

Thats freaking awesome I never knew but the last one with "Where's Dr.Lamb" was creepy by far from the rest of them

 

[Chrissyluky]

Things like this make me appreciate developers that take the time to put in this. Its the extra thought that counts and lets the developers say. you know what we care.(though bioshock 2 was too short :'( )

 

[Archonic Energy]

my Desktop is modded with UV lights, and glowey fans...
i'm going to have to hang them in that room!

This reminds me of when I bought NIN's Year Zero (Support the good bands)... The disk is heat sensitive (Changes color from dark to tan)... Very awesome to realize...

Took me a while to discover that one
Loved the idea though.
