Secrets/easter eggs/ random things... SPOILERS!

[panda rave]

I think now is a good time to discuss all the things we've discovered that may be of interest to others.

Obviously don't post errr... obvious things and make sure you say what level you are talking about and spoiler tag the rest...

Ryan amusements

when you open up the maintenance door that leads back to the big room (where the first gather sequence takes place) after you've collected all the ADAM all the other maintenance doors that were previously locked will now be open. It's a bit out of the way but the extra supplies helped me a lot.

When you first have enough ADAM make sure you only buy incinerate, this way you can enter the kitchen of tomorrow where another gatherers garden awaits with better tonics and an extra gene tonic slot

When you encounter Ryan in the amusement park, there will be a golfclub next to him in 1 certain room (can't really explain where, to vague for me)

Dinysos Park
Near the start of the level you will come to a room with 2-3 splicers at a broken CoV machine, there is a locked door up ahead when you approach it you hear the shrill scream of a Big Sister, followed by a man saying "no, my little girl! Then you will hear a couple of shots, if you have subtitles on it will be revealed that this man is Mark Meltzer!

[AgentClaret]

Speaking of Mark in Dionysus Park...
I encountered a Rumbler Big Daddy with a Little Sis in Fontaine Futuristics and killed him. Upon searching his corpse, it was labeled "Mark Meltzer"... uh oh... that's not the way I wanted to see the protagonist of SitS meet his end... the Sister wasn't Cindy, though...

No real spoiler here, just something I found hilarious.

In the hallway right after the Adonis Resort lobby (where you have your first little tiff with Big Sister) there's an advertisement poster immediately to your left, endorsing a product called the Happy Handmaid.

It's billed as a massager, but there are a few little hints as to its actual purpose: "Three massage settings and a gentle warming effect leave the skin gently flushed and feeling youthful. A discreet companion to end your stressful day."

It's marketed specifically for women, and mentions the absence of a lady's husband "who's always working in the office". The device is shaped like, uh... let's say, an eggplant. I expect anyone who's seen the Mad Men episode from Season One with the "Electrosizer" (Ep. 11, "Indian Summer") will get the joke.

For anyone who still doesn't get it, I'll leave you with this movie quote from Fight Club, spoken by the Lost Baggage Claims guy (WARNING, THE FOLLOWING IS FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY): "It's a ☺☺☺☺☺."

You do?? Awe! I just left that place last night on my second play through. Well, I'll do it on my third.

Ah.... I think there's an Achievement for that. Repeating the old "Argh marghn chooses... a shlave obeysh.... OBEY!!"

There is. You pick up golf club, which is located in the corner, with telekinesis. You hurl it at Andrew Ryan's statue head. After doing so, you get the 9-Irony achievement.

Found one cat, he/she was in the park I believe in the frozen room with turrets and camera's by the bucket load.

[fang_xiii]

A little trivia on the cats you guys keep seeing, in the bioshock 1 artbook Ken Levine (in the thanks to or acknowledgements section) talks about one the artists who made dead cats in pretty much every room in Rapture, Ken especially liked the humor in Telekinising a cat into a Splicer hehehe
