Obviously Shodan will time travel from the distant future and take over the inferior computer systems of the under water city of Rapture. This of course is not revealed until the very end of the game, where you get to fight Shodan in an epic, violent and scarey battle, as the infrastructure collapses and you narrowly escape drowning whilst destroying the Shodan future clone.
ROFLMAO!!
So is Shodan gonna be in this game??

Wasn't Xerxes corrupted and destroyed by the player and Shodan in SS2?

The player did most of the work

Hah! I would die laughing if Shodan was in Bioshock. It would tie the two universes together, but is seriously rediculous.
Shodan, for all her excellence did rely on the player alot didnt she? Without us, the insignificant spec, what would have happened?

Yea but the player (you) was being manipulated by Shodan the entire time, so by Shodan's influence you destroyed Xerxes.

no, no, no, you got it all wrong. shodan didnt time travel to the 1960's, the entire Von Braun did and crashed in the north atlantic. Ryan found it and renamed it rapture

I'm not sure whether it's as rediculous as the thought of EA developing (and thus pissing all over) SS3 though...:(
Jeez... What does it take to get some SHODAN love nowadays?

I'm just waiting to defeat the "insert main enemy" only to hear Shodan demand "Puny ha...ha...ha...ha...cker...i will crush you like the insignificant mound of flesh that you are."
What I love about certain games is the special kind of easter eggs they put in - the reconstruction of a part of a level from a previous game in some form. In the end of System Shock 2 there was a part of the medical level from SS1. In Alien Swarm there's a corridor in one level that is almost identical to a corridor from MedSci in SS2 (needless to say the those guys are System Shock fans). In Arx Fatalis there were some places here and there that brought me back to the Ultima Underworld series.
It would be awesome to see some familiar looking place/room/corridor in Rapture. It doesn't even need to be an exact copy and the textures would of course need to fit the world of Rapture above all else, but maybe a form/shape of a place or a design that could be even remotely recognized as something from a previous LGS or IG game.
And about SHODAN. Well, we can be quite certain that SHODAN won't be present, but then there's Andrew Ryan who is rumored to be talking to the player through some kind of a PA (correct me if I'm wrong) just like SHODAN did in SS2, and that's the kind of easter egg I'm talking about.
