Delicious BioShock easter egg (you must not eat it)
by Leigh Alexander on 08.29.2007 54 comments

Delicious BioShock easter egg (you must not eat it) screenshot

Image quality is poor because I snapped it with my cell phone, but I found this on the floor of Arcadia Winery (upper portion). One of those musty old cheese wheels and what looks like floor dirt forms a cute and not-so-subtle little nod from the cutting edge of gaming to the old, old school. Rock on.

Why aren't there any splicer cats? They already have the model....

i saw this when i was playing it on release day and thought wow that thing looks like pacman but i honestly didnt even see the dots cause a splicer came running out at me and i didnt have time to really take it all in but i thought it was kinda odd that it looked like pacman. good shit.

@Leigh
I applaud you for posting the pic regardless; it reaches the masses this way on the main page. I hope you don't think I'm coming across being mean.

If Little Sister had pie, I couldn't refuse. I'm a sucker for baked goods.

Yeah, I'll admit that I saw this a couple days ago on my first play through, but props for front page posting it. Another easter egg, in the upper floor of the theater in Fort Frolic, there's a playable guitar, the only one in the game. You'll know it when you see it.

It is very bold of you to post this!

Do U C wut I did!

But seriously Bioshock is all kinds of awesome. I'm not sure if there is any more cool stuff like that lying around (well actually there is cool stuff in pretty much every room but y'know, other pop culture stuff)

Lest we not forget the beginning when the voice on the machine tells you to arm yourself with something, maybe a crowbar? Nod to Half-Life (trailblazing single-player FPS) anyone?

I'm pretty sure it's the invisibility tonic. The one where if you stand still for a while you turn transparent, but I could be wrong.

For all those asking, no, those bullet holes are already there, if you shoot the floor the holes are much brighter.
