Default The Faces Of Rapture's Civil War

It looks like we are going to be able to get to know some of the people who were of importance during the Rapture Civil war! Take a look on the Cult of Rapture homepage.

Jacob Norris
To start, we begin with a welder whose face you may know very well: Jacob Norris.

Barbara Johnson
The second installation of "The Faces of Rapture's Civil War" focuses on Barbara Johnson: A simple Rapture housewife who enlisted in Sinclair Solution's plasmid program.

Danny Wilkins
Part three of "The Faces of Rapture's Civil War" details the life of once famous footballer, Danny Wilkins, before he began splicing.

Naledi Atkins
Naledi Atkins stars in part four of "The Faces of Rapture's Civil War" and tells the story of a woman who was hungry for adventure and wanted to experience new and different things - and ended up in Sinclair's program.

Buck Raleigh
Buck Raleigh is the focus of "The Faces of Rapture's Civil War: Part V." Once a savvy business man, he has been reduced to running about Rapture wielding a pistol, searching desperately for more ADAM.

Suresh Sheti
In our sixth part of the "Faces of Rapture's Civil War" series, we take a look at Rapture's notorious mystic: Suresh Sheti. He came to Rapture, blessed with incredible gifts, but those gifts brought about his downfall.

I really like that were are getting small backgrounds on each character. The before and after pictures are also amazing. Looks like the multiplayer is going to follow the Bioshock formula, and actualy put detail into the story, not just throw anything out there.

Thoughts!?

Attention: Please remember if you are going to post anything about the single player story in Bioshock 2 please try to give a sufficient spoiler warning. Just a little courtesy for those people who do not want to know any information about the single player before the game is released. Also remember to stay on topic. Thanks.

that's awesome, thanks for posting a link, I had already checked this week so I never would have noticed that until... next week.

I love how they put a before and after picture of him, I wonder who's gonna be next on there.

Yes! What is most amazing about BioShock is the intense amount of attention it paid to even the sublest details: from the behaviour of Big Daddies, Little Sisters, and splicers; to the breathtaking environment with advertisements everywhere - for everything that the player could exploit (serving to reinforce the fact that Rapture was an ultra-capitalist, consumerist, materialistic state); and to information contained in audio logs and radio messages as well as other messages sent by characters! That is what made the game so incredibly immersive and believable to the player, and that is why it is so popular!

So, I take that Jacob is an opponent of Andrew Ryan?

I wonder how collective bargaining would go over in Rapture. Ultra-capitalists are not famous for their affection for same.

This is an awesome feature. It seems that 2K has been doing a lot of humanizing of the Splicers recently, both in Something in the Sea with Lutwidge and now with this Faces of the Civil War piece. I wonder if that will be a theme in the game. Anyway, I think these bios and backstories are a great idea. Keep up the great work everyone.
